New (to me) Knitting Site -
Yes, I’m talking about knitting. Yarn, needles, nice warm blankets, throws, socks, etc.
I relearned knitting back my my daughter had her lip revision surgery from her cleft lip (pallet not affected). I needed something that was offline and not electronic to do. So I started knitting. So far I have knitted two scarves, two dish cloths (one is a pot holder for dutch ovens) and I’m knitting a drop-stitch shawl for my wife (and then my daughter). I may start a new blog for this since it is rather specialized compared to what I normally talk about.
Anyway, I came across a new community website for knitters and crocheters: Ravelry (currently in beta). It seems like a great idea and implementation. I can’t get in yet (but I did sign up to be added to the list). I’ll report back when I actually get in.
