I love Ravelry. I love it for so, so many reasons, but my favourite right now is being able to connect with people. I’m in the Cookie A sock club, and I love the apple/green tea green yarn that came in this month’s parcel. I loved it so much, I wanted to make a sweater. One of my favourite hoodies is this exact same green, but in fleece.

Luckily (for me) lots of people don’t seem to be fans of crazy-bright green. I just posted in the club forum that I’d be willing to trade yarn from my stash for more green, and got quite a few replies. Each of the three skeins on the left will be going from my stash drawers to a new home, and I will be getting 3 more skeins of this beautiful yarn, plus a pattern from one trader, and $20 from another (the last two things make up for price discrepancies).

There are just so many reasons to love Ravelry!
