Even though it has a way of vacuuming up huge chunks of time I need for homework, housework, and knitting, I love Ravelry. I've come across tons of projects to add to my (already overburdened) queue, I have fun in the forums, and I love checking out other people's project lists, stashes, and queues. It's voyeurism, but in a totally nice way. We knitters are friendly folk, after all.
One of the coolest things about Ravelry is that, as a designer, I get to see other people actually knitting my patterns. If someone mentions they've had a problem in their "notes" section, I love that I can comment or PM them and help out. And, of course, I love seeing happy FOs! Megan sent me this adorable Baby Brunhilde shot for the customer gallery, and I just had to share. Too cute!
aww! my baby's a star!!

My queue has also grown exponentially due to Ravelry. I agree, the problems/mods comments people make about their projects are immensely helpful. I have actually become more concious of problems etc that I have and blog about them so others will be able to see them too!

That is cute! Have you seen Alison's at the Blue Blog?
Ravelry is so fun - my queue is ridiculous. And it isn't even up to date.

You're so right, and I have to say - I've added some things to my queue after seeing them in YOUR queue!
