Everybody into the pool!
I, like many others (and many more to come) have joined Ravelry. I actually did it a while ago, having signed onto the waiting list on impulse some time before that.
And I, like so many others, am finding it to be fun. I've never before been interested in online social networking, but the knitting angle of this makes it completely up my alley.
This is not to say that I have spend all that much (or nearly enough) time on this yet. I have only just begun to import photos and list the projects that I am working on, and have not even started past finished projects. I have signed up for several groups, but have had little time to try to read group discussion boards. And I have surfed other's project pages and found lots of things I'd like to make but have tried not to fall too far into that black hole.
I am also finding, like many others, that I am working lately on trying to finish projects. I have a few (half dozen or so) unfinished projects, some of which are pretty close to being done, and I am trying to move some of those closer to completion.
For example,
Ribby Cardi in Cascade 220.
I started this last fall, I think in September, and had the pieces complete in a couple of weeks. I did a little bit of the finishing, and then put it down so I could work on Holiday Knitting. Then I had to work on Sockpal knitting, then baby blanket knitting, and here we are one year later. It's getting closer to sweater weather around here and I'd like to wear it this time around, so I'm working on it again. All it needs now are a collar and zipper, so it shouldn't take me too long, right?

I really need to finish my Ribby Cardi too, but it's been 2-3 years...eek! Need to redo the sleeve caps, seam, collar, may not do a zipper... Too many other projects seem to crop up when I'm almost finished with one - Pick Me! Pick Me! - and I completely ignore the ones that aren't yet finished.
Good luck on yours!
