Raveling again

After months of inattention to my Ravelry account, I've begun to clean house over there in order to spend more time there again.

I decluttered my queue tonight. Added or kept only items I truly want to attempt to cast on in the few months to half a year. The rest of it I made sure to "favorite" to prevent total loss into the ether. (I'm being ambitious/thinking wishfully...there are 24 projects on the queue :-)

I discovered that you can add patterns-for-a-price to a wish list. That's a great idea...I added a bunch :-)

I added Felicity, Cavendish 2 and Hypoteneuse to my Projects page. I had forgotten that my Rav box on the sidebar of this blog shows WIPs (works in progress). If you're on Rav you can click right on the project name and it will take you to the Rav page. Cool :-)

A long time ago, I added my needles to my Ravelry account. I had no idea at the time how useful that page has proven to be. Whenever I ponder a new project, I can go to my 'needle library' and see if I have the needles I would need for the project rather than sift through my various needle storage containers. (Then of course there's the process of ascertaining the correct size of the needles if they are not stored in their original packaging.) I appreciated this as I got myself ready to knit Felicity (my latest FO).

I love scrolling through the projects of my Ravelry friends and favorite designers.

I had fun sharing a project to one of my groups for the first time ever.

I discovered that you can see the profiles of people who have "favorited" your projects.

What a great, great site. I love it.
