Check-In Post June 30th 2021

[badly_knitted]

Hello to all members, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


Today's Question: No question today.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Another 32 rows done on the sleeve. I have 10 more increases to go then I can work straight for a bit before I start the decreases. I need at least one more pattern repeat, maybe a bit more, another 32+ rows.

That's really impressive. You're flying up the sleeve.

Thanks! Struggling more like, but I'm making good progress. I want to get it done before I forget what I'm doing.

You're making lots of progress!!

Thanks. Pushing myself with this one because if I stop I'll lose track...

I just wrote my regularly-scheduled end-of-month Crafting Post in my journal. I am quite pleased with the variety of items I managed to do this month! Post is public and features pictures/links for your enjoyment.

Today has mostly been spent typing up an old walkthrough I wrote for one of my favorite video games that's getting re-released in July. Though I think in the half hour before dinner I'm going to sit down and cast on the other fingerless mitt. I have a week to get it done, which is plenty of time but I don't want to forget about it!

That is SO MUCH crafting (and the cookies look delicious).

Blankets are always a hard slog, and it gets harder as the knitted piece gets heavier, but I'm sure you'll get it done. I'm impressed with the sheer variety of your projects, and the designing. Well done!

The yarn for your top is gorgeous,
