I am looking for anyone who would like to be chat friends qwirth me on hello.

Please Email me privately

I don't come on the forum a lot right now. and I still crochet and would lIke a friend who like to talk about what they are crocheting and interest. I am working on a lot of afghans and squares and am starting some christmas projects.

I don't think I have said anything about moving from Colorado. I now live in Georgia.

I'm still not sure what this is all about but I checked out the site and it looks like it could be something cool so I went ahead and signed up. Here is what it told me...

I suppose this means I have a long time to wait to see what all the hype is about. It must be good though, right? If that many people are signing up? :)

What is ravelry? I see that it was explained before in this thread but I am still confused a bit. Is it a forum like crochetville? Why is there a wait to join? What is so special about it??? Is it just a place to show off stuff and learn about projects?

 

Well, ravelry can probably explain themselves better so go: http://www.ravelry.com/tour/peek and http://www.ravelry.com/about

I got my invite last week and have been slowly getting my info on there. They only use flicker for photos right now,so i had to load my pics again and start a new account. It's really cool though! Lots of fun people and projects, but not enough crocheters!!!:( I can't wait for more of you to get in! I'm kimbo over there too, look me up.

Oh yeah, my heart will always belong to Crochetville:manyheart , I'll never leave home.

To answer Lavalle'a question but I am not there yet.

 

Here's what I am pretty sure you can do:

 

catalog your stash, needles, hooks and I think patterns too.

 

Surf yarn you have in your stash and see what others made with it. So it sounds great for stash busting purposes. As far as I get it's so much easier to get info because it's a just a click or two away not a big google search.

 

Keep track of you FO's and and see how others made the same thing.

 

Have a project in mind from a pattern see what yarns others used.

 

If you go here:

 

https://www.ravelry.com/account/login

 

Then click on the video tour it gives you are good idea what ravelry can do.

They're still in beta, when they get the bugs worked out there won't be a waiting list anymore. We definitely need more crocheters there, only about 10% of the current members crochet at all! :eek:no

 

It was started by a knitter, though, so the knitting community found out about it first and signed up earlier. Jess and Casey are very eager to make it crochet-friendly. :yes It's fuuuuun.
