If you are a member of Ravelry, you know by now that the infamous forum Remnants has been retired for good. You can read, if you haven’t by now, Casey’s poignant announcement here. The loss of the Remnants forum makes me feel kind of sad, to be honest. I know and understand why it had [...]

The Paradox of Ravelry
Posted in ravelry on January 4, 2010 | 3 Comments »
I have been extremely obsessed lately with looking at patterns for felted slippers on Ravelry. So much so that I’ve spent more time doing pattern searches and clicking through the results than I’ve spent knitting anything. I’m especially taken by the ballerina style slippers (especially the ones available only in German, damnit!) and these extremely [...]
I did it again.

I realized this evening, after checking the Ravelry forums again and getting sucked in (again!) to some drama on the Big 6, that I might have a problem. I’m a member of 20 groups, not counting the Big 6, which every Raveler is a member of. I’ve spent so much time on Ravelry the last [...]

I (still) Love Ravelry

Cassie over at the Mario Scarf blog is wondering what the point of Ravelry is and I’ve heard others voice the same sort of questions. I’m not sure if I’m more organized or if Ravelry changed my life, but I certainly enjoy using it. So, rather than commenting on her blog directly, I thought I’d [...]

Sorry folks, it’s a Ravelry link. I just couldn’t resist. Probably Definitely nsfw/children/the elderly/unicorns.

I really, really want to ask the Yarn Harlot to be on my Ravelry friends list, but I fear the silent, online snub. This is, with the dozens of social networking websites out there, apparently a growing issue. The Situationist recently featured an article about the “etiquette pitfalls” of online social networking. With networking websites [...]

Ravelry is probably the best thing to happen to the knitting (and crochet) community since the invention of the blog. Talk about making the world bigger! Not only can you keep a notebook of your entire knitting (or crochet) life–including what’s in your stash, what needles (or hooks) you have, what you’re knitting right now, [...]
