Check-In Post September 8th 2021



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!

badly_knitted: (Tired Ianto)

Another exhausting day in the garden, trying to get stuff done before the rain tomorrow. Spent about 4 hours out there working. The tree surgeon came and gave me a quote for tree removal that was less than half what I was expecting, so I'm booked in for the middle of next month. He's even going to deal with the 6 maple trees in the hedges that I keep cutting down and they just keep growing back. They're all self-set, and having them got rid of only added another £25 to the original quote. Yay!

Still managed to get my 12 rows of knitting done, so that's 6 pattern repeats completed.

The second pair of oven mitts - the one with the revised design- is done. One more pair to do; by the time it's finished I might even iron out some of the faults that resulted from experimenting. ;-)

More work on Tigger - this part of the design is almost finished so then I’ll be moving onto more of the picture. Decisions decisions. Do I go left or right from here 😁

I finished my paint by numbers. I am pleased with it.

The back of the horse being flat means nothing will sit on it properly. argh!

I finished knitting a shrug out of bulky yarn, and just can't wait to wear it.
