Hi friends,

I'm new here. I live in Michigan, USA. I forgot how I found out about SSSS. I know that I read the first 20-some pages and was interested but then got distracted by other stuff. A friend convinced me months later to keep going and boy was I surprised!

I crochet (18years) and knit (three weeks?) and this comic and fandom is what inspired me to pick up knitting. Hope to learn more about you lovely folks and looking forward to reading the new pages as they come out.

Hoppipolla, welcome! Glad to have you on board. You should find here lots of folk who are into knitting, crochet and other crafts, and plenty of patterns for things ranging from tiny crochet dolls of the crew to a full knitted replica of Reynir's jacket. Also lots of paper craft, model making and the like. We even have a glass worker among our number! Hope you enjoy it all.

Welcome again to Prizrachniy_Gek, you will have seen a few more Russian newbies since last you logged in.
Welcome (in this thread) to hoppipolla - I lived in Lansing for a few years back in the early 90s, there was a lot to enjoy about the place.  Coincidentally, that was where I learnt to knit - 5 sessions at the knitting shop in Frandor gave me enough skills to cope with single-colour patterns and a variety of stitch techniques.
Welcome to WeirdnessUnfolds, as well, bumping up the native Swedish contingent!

Hello everyone, I am puffuls (though ya'll can call me puffs if you want). I am your average teen from the Northern West Coast, Idaho to be exact. My hobbies include reading, drawing, crocheting and learning languages.
 I found SSSS one or two years ago from my sister telling me about it. I also read aRTD, and I love both of the stories.
I'm a pretty boring person, but I am looking forward to finally getting involved in the SSSS community =)

Hello all! I'm refract3d/refractedstarlight/Aby. I've been a fan of SSSS for a while now (a couple years, maybe?) and I've been visiting the forums a little over the last couple months. I decided I might as well make an account and actually participate in some of the interesting conversations ^^

I'm a jack-of-all-trades, master of none - I like to dabble in a lot of creative pursuits such as drawing, knitting, cosplay, stamp carving, music (singing, guitar, keyboard) and poetry, writing, etc... I also have a lot of random hobbies that I'll pick up and move between.
I've been listening to a lot of podcasts while at work and this forum has helped me find an interesting selection. I've mostly been listening to (so many) food and history podcasts lately. I don't even know why.
I love cool rocks and weird sea creatures and places with history. I'm a huge fan of mythology and I love learning about other places, times, and cultures.

I live on the US East Coast and have a gecko, two gerbils, and a bunch of fish. The cat is not mine but I love her to pieces.

Hello, I am Laiska (otherwise known as strudels/ cybes on practically everything else). I currently live in Northern Idaho with my many dogs, geckos, and family (puffuls I'm lookin' at you). I think I stumbled upon SSSS a couple years ago from another site, and I was hooked ever since (though I took monthly breaks while reading so many other Hiveworks comic). I really love learning languages, drawing, ... reading and writing, I guess! I enjoy historical fiction, as well as just fantasy! I'm pretty run of the mill, but I hope to get to know this adorable little community! :V
