Good morning, CMK! ❤️🧶 We are officially on DAY 17 of our 30 Days to ONE Anniversary Engagement Challenge—and since our theme for October is Thankfulness & Gratitude, I thought we'd bring a little of that into today's challenge. Over the next few weeks, we're going to be celebrating one whole year of CMK, and there is SO much that has happened in that year. But today, I want to turn the question over to YOU. ❤️ WHO ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR IN CMK? Think about someone in this community who has made your experience here a little better. Maybe they... 🧶 Answered one of your questions ❤️ Encouraged you when a project wasn't cooperating 👏 Always comments on your finished projects 😂 Made you laugh 💡 Taught you something new 👋 Made you feel welcome when you first arrived 🔥 Encouraged you through this crazy 100-activities-a-day challenge! Today, TAG THEM and tell them why you're thankful for them. And don't feel limited to one person. If several people have made a difference, tell them! ❤️ Imagine what the community will look like today if everyone takes a few minutes to tell someone else: “I'm glad you're here.” 🔥 MY DAY 16 TOTAL — 172! Yesterday I finished with... 🔥 172 ACTIVITIES! 🔥 Definitely more than my 100—and another qualifying day in the books! 😂 Now it's your turn! 👇 DAY 16 — _____ activities Remember, I need your total even if you didn't reach 100. 🔥 NOW GO MAKE SOMEONE'S DAY! Here's your Day 17 mission: 1️⃣ Post your Day 16 activity total below. 2️⃣ Tag someone in CMK you're thankful for and tell them WHY. Then head out into the community and start working toward today's 100 genuine activities! Every comment, conversation, question, answer and word of encouragement is helping build the kind of community we're celebrating this October. We're on Day 17 now, everyone. The finish line is getting closer! 🎂🔥 ❤️ TODAY, LET'S NOT JUST COUNT OUR ACTIVITIES. LET'S MAKE OUR ACTIVITIES COUNT. Let's go get our Day 17 — 100! 🧶🔥❤️

October is going to be a VERY special month here at Circular Machine Knitting. Because this month... 🎉 CMK TURNS ONE! 🎉 It is hard to believe that we are approaching one full year together as a community. So for October, our theme is: ❤️ THANKFULNESS & GRATEFULNESS ❤️ Throughout the month, we're going to be doing different things to celebrate, remember, give thanks and have some fun together as we look back at everything that has happened during CMK's first year. There is SO much for me to be grateful for. 🧶 The friendships that have formed ❤️ Members helping and encouraging one another 🎓 Everything we've learned together 😂 The laughs we've shared 🎉 The milestones we've celebrated 🌱 And the incredible growth of this community But most of all, I'm thankful for YOU. CMK isn't a collection of patterns, classes and posts. It's the people who show up every day who have turned it into a community. ❤️ And this month, we're going to celebrate that! 🎂 SAVE THE DATE — OCTOBER 17TH! The highlight of our month will be our... 🎉🎂 CMK FIRST ANNIVERSARY PARTY! 🎂🎉 And EVERYONE IS INVITED! Standard, Premium, VIP and Inner Circle—we're celebrating our birthday together! ❤️ We're planning a special day to celebrate CMK turning ONE, and on Monday I'll be releasing the times and more details about what's happening on October 17th. So for now... 📅 MARK OCTOBER 17TH ON YOUR CALENDAR! And keep watching the community throughout October because our anniversary party won't be the only way we're celebrating. 👀🎉 ❤️ ONE YEAR. ONE COMMUNITY. SO MUCH TO BE THANKFUL FOR. October is going to be a month of looking back at how far we've come while celebrating the people who helped us get here. Happy Anniversary Month, CMK! 🎂🧶❤️ Let's make it a good one! 🎉
