Ravelry

I signed up almost immediately as well. Got my invite last week It is wild how many knitters signed up for this! :roflhard:

My user name is Mintdee.
:woohoo:

I got mine last weekend and I suppose I haven’t had time to really look at it yet, but so far I am not in love. I am absolutely NOT a fan of Flickr so that bugs me a little bit and am finding it a little tedious to navigate around to find what I really want. Like I said though, it is very likely that I just haven’t had enough time to get in there and really look around. Will definitely need to play with it more sometime.

I signed up for it… maybe 2 weeks ago? I can’t remember but am excited to get my invite and test it out!

I got my invite!! :happydance: I got it yesterday but I had no idea what it was (I totally forgot about it). I thought it was spam! :doh:

Wow, I can’t wait to get mine! I can’t remember when I signed up…I’m sure it was in May, but who knows when! I have heard that at least one of my patterns is already on it though, I’m quite honored!!!

I got mine! Im PaperGirl there was well. Ive been adding my needles to the list…gonna work on the yarn and stuff later. Its SO neat!

I must be getting close. I signed up pretty early.

Boy am I jelous of you all.

I’m DianaM :slight_smile:

Sorry to hear that you are finding it tedious to navigate! It’s supposed to be fun. As for Photobucket, Photobucket users have been a small but vocal minority on our site (so far) and we’ll be supporting other photo options when we open. I wrote a little more about this in the Flickr vs Photobucket thread.

How cool! I hadn’t heard of this yet (must have missed it while I was in Europe). I signed up, but I suppose I’ll have to wait a bit.:help:

:waving: Hi Casey! Thanks for the invite, its very overwhelming with so much in there - I’ve added some books and one project. Now I need to find time to add more!

My name there is also Mulene :slight_smile:

Well if I can’t use Smugmug then I don’t know if I’ll participate. I’ve used them for years and I don’t want to bother moving the photos. :doh:

Rebecca, like you, several of my patterns proceeded me to Ravelry :mrgreen:

I think it’s the best flippin’ thing since sliced bread…seriously, I’m gobsmacked. It incorporates so many things that people have been vocally wishing for for ages. Especially as far as pattern and yarn information are concerned…the potential is absolutely amazing. Casey and Jessica really did their homework. :thumbsup:

I liken it to when KnitPicks came out with Options…for years people were saying “if only there was an interchangeable set like Addis” and they went and did it…and kudos to them for making a great business decision. In the same way, people have been saying things like “if only there were a database where I could search for patterns by yarn/gauge/whatever” and now, there is. I also find it so helpful to be able to search for others’ projects when I’m considering starting a project, to see what their experiences and results were like. I’ve always done that in the past, using google searches, but this is sooooo much more streamlined and helpful.

(I’m heyjulie over there!)

I got my invite while I was gone…been diddling with it since I got home and have started to add some things… so far I am enjoying it… my nickname is dustinac…

Are you guys going back and adding all projects? I had to start a flickr account so thinking I’ll just stick with May/June projects and go from there :teehee:…

I don’t have any photo accounts anywhere… does that mean I’d be SOL? :shrug:

Most photo sharing sites have a free membership. Just pick one and sign up!

My name is KnittingDefender on ravelry.

What is yours?

Add me as a friend if you like!

Deb, you don’t [I]have[/I] to post photos…but it sure is fun! :smiley:

I’m working on getting my stuff listed on there, but since I don’t have a camera at the moment, it will be pretty bare bones for my projects. Oh well! My name on there is Megynn. Add me as a friend!! :cheering:
