Ravelry is a great site - been there for a while now. I put a fair bit of my stuff up in the projects section.
Michelle - I wish we lived closer, I would love to try you out with crochet. That's an easy way to make chemo caps.
If I'm knitting I use bamboo needles - less noise and more comfortable to use. I've been making scarves to sell to raise funds for the needlecrafts group I've got going at the local women's shelter. I just picked up some yarn at a yard sale that will be great for that and, when I've finished making soft furnishings for my granddaughter's doll house (do you know how long it takes to make a tablecloth using sewing cotton!) and a shawl that I will be making while we're out with the old car all day today, I'll be back to knitting scarves.
