Do you Ravelry?

For knitters/crocheters/spinners out there, check out Ravelry.com It’s a fantastic site for networking, finding patterns and being around like minded crafters. I made a community for LJ/SDMB folks here:
Ravelry

Please join us for discussion and pattern sharing for the needle arts!

Yes, I Ravelry…I was even a Beta tester…a bad one, because I took my own sweet time getting stuff set up on there, and I still have lots of exploring to do. I’ll check out the link later…

I don’t, but **Rhiannon8404 **does.

I’d point this thread out to her, but she’s not home right now…she’s out at the pub with some friends from her “Pub Knits” Ravelry group :slight_smile:

I do, same name there as here. I loves me some Ravelry.

I love Ravelry! Like Suburban Plankton said, I was out last night with a group of people from the Sac Pub Knits board. I have the same name there as I do here.

Wow, I’m glad I read this. I signed up for Ravelry a long time ago and never heard back. So I just checked and they had sent me an invitation in October! Ha ha. Now I’m signed up and I have the stupid name of Whiskers.

Why am I so bad at picking user names?

Now I have to figure out Ravelry. Kittenblue will have to explain it to me.

When will you learn, Lillith Fair? No picking names until we talk! I still think my name for your car would be a good one…But you can change your Ravelry name, so if you think of a better one, you aren’t stuck for life.

I shouldn’t mention that my Ravelry name, bluejeanbaby, took four hours and an intercontinental discussion to decide on…and I’m still not 100% happy…

I spend WAY to much time on Ravelry. I’m Archergal5219 there. :slight_smile:

I “solved” the username problem by sticking an s on the end of the one I use here.

I have the same name there.
I also spend too much time there.
I love looking at what other people have done with yarn I am thinking of buying.
Recently I became addicted to knitting socks.

I Ravel under the name Asmody. (Closer to my real life name, if you must know.) I was one of the last people to beta test, and now I wish that Ravelry had a Charter Member status or something.

I use the same username there as here. I love it. In only a few months of browsing around over there and reading their forums, I’ve gone from a timid scarf-and-basic-sock-knitter to a devil-may-care, “What the hell? Worth a try…” knitter. I’m almost done with my first cardigan (which is turning out fabulously and which I’m inordinately proud of) and have a skein of sock yarn waiting patiently for me to conquer that thrice-damned toe-up cast-on.

Yep, I’m there too. Between the Dope and Ravelry, not to mention all the yarn play, I’m surprised my behind isn’t bigger than it already is.

Yep, Gingy over there. Just conquered socks on dpns, currently halfway into my first sock on two circulars.

Gingy, go over and check out the teeny baby socks I made. SO CUTE!

Let me know how you like the magic loop sock method. I may try that while I"m trapped at home for a few days during Ike.

I’m brookeln on Ravelry, and I have two patterns up there, Brooke’s Column of Leaves Scarf and Column of Leaves Hat. (Here are the direct links to the patterns, for non-Ravelers: scarf and hat.) Please feel free to “friend” me!

Those are so adorable!

I’m a Raveler! I’m cee3 over there (yeah, not much of an imaginative user name creator here, either). Friend me if you’d like!

I just started my second pair of two-socks-at-a-time on one circular. I love this method - I have serious one sock syndrome. I’ve also just started a couple sweaters for my little boys for Christmas.

I’m as addicted to Ravelry as I am to the Dope - those are the two tabs I consistently have open when I’m sitting in front of the computer. Now I just have to figure out how to type and knit at the same time.

ETA: is there a Dopers group over there? If not, we should have one.

I Ravel.
I am oonagh over there.
Friend me!

I am a member but haven’t put anything up. Our digital camera isn’t working properly. I am on there looking at other people’s stuff all the time. I’m Caricci there too.

I love that I saw Brooke’s Column of Leaves here first. It’s a pretty popular design
