Ravelry.com

You know how I was talking about how I really want to learn how to do more advanced things with my knitting? Well I have found this awesome website that has knitters from all over the world showing off there stuff, making knitting friends and helping each other out with projects! It is called Ravelry.com and it is sooooooo cool! It has all kinds of features where you can catalog your stash of yarn and needles, have favorite sites and books and feature your finish objects! I have asked around and it has gotten great reviews so I got on the waiting list for membership. As of today there 3174 people in front of me in line haha, this place is beyond popular. Don't worry though, they add about 1000 people a day so I will have my membership by next week. I am so excited! I will finally get to make new knitting friends =)

In other knitting news, I have fallen in love with a set of interchangable circular needles that would be perfect for when I start my first sweater, but they are kinda expensive. They would definately save me money in the long run since they come with 24" and 32" cords and 9 different sized needles, but spending $70 on needles would give me chest pain lol. I mentioned them to Robert Gerard and he wants to get them for me but I would feel bad. I dont even know how to make a sweater yet! We will see....maybe we can make them an early birthday present =), that means I would need some yarn to! =O
