There are now fewer than 200 people ahead of me on Ravelry.

So, I need to begin thinking about a handle - based on a comment Lydia made last week, it looks as though just plain "fillyjonk" is already taken (who'd have thought it?).

So now I need to decide. The immediate ones that come to mind are FillyjonkKnitter (my handle on Flickr) or Erica-fillyjonk (or some variation of that if Ravelry disallows hyphens).

Or maybe "fillyjonk in Oklahoma"? Surely that's still available.

Or I suppose I could go with the original Swedish, which is something like "fillyfjonk" or the Finnish "vilijonkka"

Part of it is I don't want the other "fillyjonk" to think I am copying her. But whatever.

I KNOW just plain "Erica" is long gone for sure, and I do want it to have some linking with the blog's name, so people might recognize me if they "know" me.

Decisions, decisions.

I checked- the Flickr handle one is still available, as are all of the variations of Fillyjonk and Erica that I noodled around. I couldn't tell if hyphens were allowed or not.

I can't wait to see you on there!

I saw the other fillyjonk one time (I think, unless there are three fillyjonks that knit, which starts to get well into the improbable realm); that's her handle on LJ. I got very confused for several minutes.
