I’m not a shill and this isn’t an advertisement.
I was put off by the fact that you have to make an account on Ravelry to see anything, which is why it took me so long to start using it.
But it really is the best archive of patterns and advice for literally everyone. It’s community-driven with I don’t even know how many folks sharing patterns for free, with whole active forums to ask any question, and ways to organize favorites.
I know I sound like a shill. I just fucking love ravelry.
I’m not sure, I joined after AI became a thing and only because a friend showed me what it was like on “the other side.”
I’ll create an account the next time I’m looking for a pattern!
