🧶💜 Come Craft With Us! — Our Next Social Crafting Hour Is Tomorrow, 10:00 AM EST. Check the Calendar for your local time. I will be working on finishing some hats. Sometimes crafting is even better when you don't have to do it alone! Our Social Crafting Hours are a relaxed place to grab your knitting machine, bring whatever you're working on and spend some time crafting with other members of our CMK community. There is no specific project you have to work on and no lesson you need to keep up with. This is simply time to: 🧶 Work on your current CMK project 💬 Chat and get to know other members ❓ Ask questions if you get stuck 💡 Share ideas, tips and discoveries 👀 See what everyone else is making 😂 Laugh, visit and enjoy creating together You can even come if you don't feel like knitting! Grab a coffee, pull up a chair and hang out with us. ☕💜 One of the best parts of crafting together is how much we naturally learn from each other. Someone shares what they're making, another person has a suggestion, somebody discovers a new yarn or technique—and before you know it, we've all learned something. 💜 Who Can Join? Social Crafting Hours are available to our: 💜 Premium Members 👑VIP Members Check the Calendar tab for the date and time of our next Social Crafting Hour.

First, let's check my number... 🥁🥁🥁 MY DAY 2 TOTAL: 119 ACTIVITIES! 🔥 Not quite my 162 from Day 1, but I made it over 100 and that's what matters! So I'm officially... 🔥 2 FOR 2! Now — HOW DID YOU DO? 🆕 NEW HERE? YOU CAN JOIN THE CHALLENGE TOO! We've had new members joining CMK since our challenge started, so if you're wondering what all this talk about 100 activities is about, here's the scoop! 😁 We're celebrating the countdown to Circular Machine Knitting's FIRST ANNIVERSARY on October 17th with our: 🎂🔥 30 DAYS TO ONE ANNIVERSARY ENGAGEMENT CHALLENGE! 🔥🎂 The challenge started September 16th and our goal is simple: 🎯 Complete 100 or more activities in the community each day. Those activities include things like: ❤️ Liking posts and comments 💬 Commenting and replying 📝 Creating posts 📊 Participating in polls 🙋‍♀️ Answering questions 👋 Welcoming members 🧶 Sharing your projects 🎉 Encouraging other members Members who started on Day 1 need to reach 100 activities on at least 26 of the 30 challenge days to qualify for our prize draw. And EVERYONE can participate — Standard, Premium, VIP and Inner Circle! 🆕 BUT WHAT IF YOU JUST JOINED? Jump in! You're not too late. I'm prorating the challenge for new members based on the number of challenge days available to you after you join. The original challenge requires 26 qualifying days out of 30, which is approximately 87% of the available days. So new members will need to reach 100 activities on approximately 87% of the challenge days available from the time they join. For example: 🔥 20 days available → 17 qualifying days 🔥 15 days available → 13 qualifying days 🔥 10 days available → 9 qualifying days 🔥 5 days available → 4 qualifying days So if you joined yesterday... COME PLAY! ❤️ You don't have to sit on the sidelines because you weren't here on September 16th. 🎁 AND YES... THERE ARE PRIZES! Everyone who successfully completes their challenge will qualify for our Anniversary Prize Draw: 🥇 $100 Caydo Gift Card

My first Ivy pattern headband and my first attempt at grafting/kitchener stitch. Not the neatest but not bad.

I pre-ordered the new Caydo CKM. Got an error message, thought it didn't go through, and did the process again. That one gave me an confirmation. So I thought I was all set. Then I checked my bank account and discovered that they BOTH went through! So I look for and found the email for support at Caydo. Wrote an email explaining the problem and requesting they cancel one of the orders. Hit send and figured it would take a while to hear back. Almost instantly a new email appeared from Caydo. In Chinese. Using Google translator, I discovered that my email was marked as Spam and never delivered. Any suggestions on how I can get help from Caydo now?

Yesterday was the FIRST day of our 30 Days to ONE Anniversary Engagement Challenge! 🎉 So, of course, I had to check my own activity... 🥁🥁🥁 MY DAY 1 TOTAL: 162 ACTIVITIES! 🔥 I made it past our 100-activity goal — now I just have to keep doing it! 😂 How did YOU do yesterday? Remember, the goal isn't to see who can get the biggest number. This challenge is about spending the 30 days leading up to our FIRST ANNIVERSARY doing more of what makes this community work: ❤️ Encouraging each other 💬 Joining conversations 🧶 Sharing projects 🙋‍♀️ Answering questions 👋 Welcoming members 🎉 Celebrating each other's wins 😂 Having some fun together! 🔥 WHAT COUNTS AS ACTIVITY? You don't need to create 100 posts! 😂 Your everyday participation throughout the community adds up, including things like: ❤️ Liking posts and comments 💬 Commenting on posts 📝 Creating your own posts 📊 Participating in polls 🙋‍♀️ Answering someone's question 👋 Welcoming or encouraging another member 🧶 Sharing a project or something you've learned 💬 Replying to someone who has commented on your post The idea is to genuinely participate in the community. Don't just click for the sake of getting a number — use those 100 activities to get to know people, discover projects you may have missed, help someone and join conversations. 🔥 QUICK CHALLENGE REMINDER Our goal is 100+ activities per day on at least 26 of the 30 challenge days. That means you have 4 grace days! So if you didn't reach 100 yesterday... YOU ARE STILL IN THIS! ❤️ Today is another day. One of my biggest tips is to create a pattern of checking in rather than trying to do everything at once. ☕ Check in for a few minutes in the morning. 🧶 Come back sometime during the day. 🌙 Check again later and see where your activity total stands. And I've got LOTS of extra content coming throughout the challenge to give you plenty of genuine things to interact with! 📊 DON'T FORGET TO CHECK YOUR PROGRESS! Go to your Skool profile and look at your daily activity graph.
