Hey folks! Instead of missing my niche communities on Reddit, I decided to try my hand at creating a community here on Lemmy.

I've been knitting for around 20 years and have even published a few of my original patterns. The first pattern I ever published got picked up by Knitty, which was quite a big deal for me back then. I published a few patterns afterwards, but my designing muse has been dormant for a while. I have several original designs which I've never published and I'm hoping to put them up on Ravelry one day.

But in general, I just wanted to start a knitting community here in the hopes that others will join and share their work, ask for advice, and just geek out about knitting in general.

If you don't have any current work to post, just introduce yourself. Lets start this community together!

Hi! I'm very new to the fediverse, first thing I did was trying to understand which instances had a knitting community. Glad to have found this!

I'm a very slow knitter, so unfortunately won't have too much to share, but I'm looking forward in participating nonetheless :)
