I just realized that I have not posted in a week. Why? I have been completely and utterly obsessed with Frecklelgirl's new website, Ravelry, and have been participating in its beta testing. What is Ravelry and why is it so cool? Wow, where do I begin? When you sign up, you get a notebook. In this notebook you organize of all your knitting/crochet projects (with all the juicy details), yarn and needles/hooks in your stash, books in your library, and you have a queue to list all the projects in your future. What's really cool is that all of the patterns that people have listed in their project details/queues and all of the yarn they've used or have in their stashes get compiled and listed by popularity, and you even get a list of people that have knit the same projects as you. As if that isn't enough, you can send messages to other members, post in the forums, leave comments on projects, and find out about the latest knitalongs and events. If you can believe it, I am actually leaving stuff out! You'll just have to go and see how cool it is for yourself. Tell your blogless friends too! Ravelry is perfect for someone that doesn't feel like blogging but would like to have a place to keep track of projects. Just remember, it's quite addictive, and you may go missing for a week or so. Don't say I didn't warn ya! ;)
