Check-In Post July 4th 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!

I didn't think I could get there today, but I've done it, the ribbed cuff and the first pattern repeat of sleeve two are done. Yay!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Good job!

I did a 500 piece puzzle.

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

Oooh, such a pretty and appropriate puzzle!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Thanks!

[m_findlow]

So much green! Well done for finishing it!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Thank you very much!

[medievalrosalie]

Great puzzle! love the horses and carriages!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

[wiseheart]

Oooh, pretty!

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Thank you!

[smallhobbit]

That's excellent - you're charging up the second sleeve!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! Two more pattern repeats to the start of the sleeve decreases.

[nagi_schwarz]

Excellent progress!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

[m_findlow]

Sounds like you're making excellent progress now that the tricky bit is out of the way!

[badly_knitted]

The tricky bit on this sleeve is yet to come. First, increases, then those stupid decreases which have to be the reverse of the ones on the first sleeve... *tears hair out*

[medievalrosalie]

You're smashing it!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! My thumb wasn't too happy, but I made it work.

[wiseheart]

You are the official superhero of knitting!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! Not sure about that, but I'm very determined!
