Ravelry!

So, I finally got a Ravelry invite, and have been playing around with as many of the features as I can. I’ve added all of my projects into my notebook, but I haven’t found a good spot in my house in which to take pictures of the works-in-progress, so everything is still empty. And I haven’t even begun to enter my stash items in. That might be a good idea though, if only to give me an excuse to organize my stash into one place. If nothing else, Ravelry is making me realize that I’m not nearly as crazy as I think I am for having like, five projects on needles, since there are people with way more than that on the site. :)

*hides in shame*

*facepalm* There are few things more humbling than finding out that the problem you’re having with your pattern has nothing at all to do with the pattern itself, and has everything to do with the fact that you learned how to do a yarn over in completely the wrong way.

There’s No Such Thing As Too Many Lifelines

I am *so* thankful I decided to put a lifeline in before dropping stitches for this pattern. I got to the prep row, and sure enough, I screwed up somewhere and ended up with four stitches at the end instead of three. I tried going back along the row, but the damage was done, and I had to go all the way back to my lifeline. I only lost a week’s worth of knitting, not the whole thing, but the new lesson? More. Freaking. Lifelines. *sigh*

Testing, testing…

Just making sure I can get all of this to work. There will be knitting content here eventually. *g*
