The hat I did last week. I just finished the Loop Scarf today, after restarting it 3 times... lol Yarn: Hobby Lobby's "I Love This Yarn" 100% acrylic, [4 weight] Color: Moody Mosaic

I finished my third game for the grandkids.

GOOD MORNING, CMK! ❤️🧶🎉 WE DID IT! WE'VE REACHED DAY 30! Thirty days ago, we started our 30 Days to ONE Anniversary Engagement Challenge, and here we are at the FINISH LINE! I can hardly believe that we're just TWO DAYS away from celebrating our FIRST CMK BIRTHDAY! 🎂🎉 What a month it has been! We've shared stories, encouraged one another, discovered new things, celebrated accomplishments and gotten to know each other a little better. And THAT is what this challenge has really been about. ❤️ 🔥 FIRST — LET'S CHECK IN! It's time to report yesterday's activity total! 🔥 DAY 29 (October 14) — _____ activities Whether you reached 100, went well beyond it, or didn't quite make it, please share your number! And remember, TODAY IS YOUR FINAL OPPORTUNITY TO ADD ANOTHER QUALIFYING DAY! For those who started on Day 1, the goal is to complete at least 100 activities on 26 of the 30 days. For members who joined later, the number of qualifying days is adjusted based on when you started. ❤️ OUR FINAL GRATITUDE QUESTION — WHAT ARE YOU MOST THANKFUL FOR ABOUT CMK? We've spent much of October reflecting on the things we're thankful for. We've talked about yarn, crafting, learning new skills, meaningful gifts and the people who have made a difference in our lives. But today, on the final day of our challenge, I want to bring it back to something very close to my heart. THIS COMMUNITY. ❤️ So here's my question: 🧶 WHAT IS ONE THING ABOUT CIRCULAR MACHINE KNITTING THAT YOU'RE ESPECIALLY THANKFUL FOR? Maybe it's... ❤️ A friendship you've made with another member. 🧶 A pattern or class that helped you accomplish something you never thought possible. 🥰 The encouragement you've received when you were struggling. 🎓 Something new you've learned that has changed the way you knit. 😂 The laughter, fun and sometimes downright silliness we share! 🌟 Or simply having a place where other people understand why getting excited about a new ball of yarn is perfectly normal! 🤣 Whatever it is, I would LOVE to hear it!

Let's dream about PATTERNS. What's something you'd love to see designed for the CMK Pattern Library?

Good morning, CMK! ❤️🧶 Can you believe it? We've reached DAY 29 of our 30 Days to ONE Anniversary Engagement Challenge! 🎉🎉🎉 We have TWO days of activities to catch up on, but first, I have a little personal update! 🛳️ MY CRUISE SHIP CRAFT SHOW SEASON IS FINISHED! YESTERDAY WAS MY LAST CRUISE SHIP CRAFT SHOW OF THE SEASON! 🎉 I can't tell you how happy I am to be able to say that! 😂 It's been an incredibly busy season, with long days, very early mornings and a LOT of knitting and sewing to keep up with inventory. While the shows have been important for me financially, they've also meant that I haven't been able to spend nearly as much time doing all the things I love to do here in CMK. But that's about to change! ❤️ Now that the cruise ship season is behind me, I'll be getting back into a more regular routine with the community. That means more time for creating patterns, working on classes, making videos, answering questions and spending time with all of YOU! And believe me, I've got plenty of ideas waiting to become projects! 🧶😂 Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support while I've been juggling everything. 🔥 LET'S CATCH UP ON OUR ACTIVITY TOTALS! It's time to report your numbers for the last two days! 🔥 Day 27 (October 12) — _____ activities 🔥 Day 28 (October 13) — _____ activities And remember, I want your numbers even if you didn't reach 100! For those who started on Day 1, our goal has been to complete at least 100 activities on 26 of the 30 days. If you joined later, your required number of days is adjusted based on when you started. ❤️ TODAY'S GRATITUDE — THANKFUL FOR NEW BEGINNINGS! With my craft show season coming to an end, I've been thinking about how thankful I am for new beginnings and fresh opportunities. Sometimes life gets so busy that we have to put certain things on the back burner. But what a wonderful feeling it is when we finally have the opportunity to return to something we love! And that brings me to today's question...
