When I discovered that Ravelry suspended my account on Saturday, I was pretty confused! I don't remember doing anything against the Term of Use. I investigated the best I could with only Google at my disposal. All that is mentioned were from people who were directly involved in the banning. Apparently the interaction between a group and the rest of Ravelry got out of hand and resulted in their accounts being banned. I'll refrain from commenting on that since I don't really know all the details from those events. I take my Internet facts with a grain of salt!
However, if that were the reason why so many people were banned, then why was I, Mel, and our friends banned also? I've never heard of the said group until yesterday. None of us are involved with any political groups on Ravelry nor do we post that much. Sooo... it has to be some kind of IP ban. But then I wonder, how did I get swept up? It must have been when I logged in from UTD, and someone associated with that group logged in at UTD? And that's where it started? I have no idea!
Oh well, no biggie I guess. I won't make a judgment until I get an official response from the team at Ravelry.

Crossfit was fun today! It was another Crossfit total day.
Back Squat: 155
Shoulder Press: 85
Deadlift: 155
28 more pounds and I can deadlift Joey! Ah goals, everyone should have at least one.

I started the Saoirse shawl with Linares yarn, the peach-apricot color. It's so fun to knit with even though it kind of splits a lot. Also when I get around to the last fifty yards or so, the little ball goes completely crazy and I end up with a big knot. Thankfully the ladies at Woolie Ewe helped me with that problem. I can't wait until I finish it! It's going to look great!

Yea for spring break!

Great job on the CF Total! :D I am sad; I probably won't get to go to CF most, if not all, of this week. Stupid knee.
Thank you for posting a link to the shawl; it's cute! I couldn't figure out which one you were talking about, because I kept thinking it was some huge triangle or something! :) Very pretty colors, too! Yay LYS ladies! :D
I was banned from Ravelry too! I also was not a part of any political groups! And I go to UTD! Hmmm I wonder how many of the UTD users got banned.
