March is almost here.

We are finally getting a little closer to spring. This winter wasn't so bad but it has seemed to take it's toll on me for some reason. Not to worry though spring will appear eventually.

In the meantime we have another guest blogger, Sharon, to help past the last few weeks of winter.

....Where did the last year go? It was back at the end of December 2009 (literally, it was the 30th!) that I joined Ravelry. I joined the Dodge Creations group there almost immediately. I don’t honestly remember, but it may very well have been the first group I joined!

Debbie and Karen Austin were kind enough to supply the “Super Easy Vest with Scarf” pattern for free to group members as part of a KAL. I was just so excited to be a part of the group and to get this wonderful pattern to work with that I never really stopped to think about how big the project was! I eagerly started on January 11th and worked on it nearly every day until the Ravelympics started.

My main Ravelympics project was also Dodge Creations associated, but that’s for another post! ;)

Once Ravelympics were over and after some assistance from my mom (she picked up the stitches around the front and neck for me) I finished the vest March 27th. I kept track of the number of stitches and rows I completed each day.

I feel like this was a great project. It helped me to learn the ins and outs of Ravelry. It also helped me to get to know my fellow Dodge Creations group members more. They have become my friends and it is truly the one place I look forward to checking for new posts each time I log in! I’m usually on Ravelry daily. :)

You do have to be a member of Ravelry to see the last two.
