19I want to see what friends are making

Tap Feed in the navigation bar. The Friends tab shows a social stream of activity from people you follow on Ravelry - new projects started, finished objects, pattern favorites, stash additions, and forum posts. The data comes directly from your Ravelry friend connections: anyone you follow on Ravelry will appear here when they're active.

Each activity card shows the friend's avatar, what they did, and a photo when available. Tap any card to jump straight to the project, pattern, or thread.

Switch to the For You tab to see an Instagram-style discovery feed of patterns and projects tailored to your interests. Unlike the Friends tab (which pulls from your Ravelry social graph), the For You feed draws from the entire Ravelry database of over 1 million patterns and millions of projects. Stash2Go's recommendation engine filters this massive catalog down to content that matches your taste.

On your first visit, Stash2Go analyzes your Ravelry favorites, your library, and your project history to build an initial preference profile - what crafts you do (knitting, crochet, or both), which categories you gravitate toward (garments, accessories, home), and what yarn weights and fibers you prefer. After that, every interaction refines the algorithm: items you favorite or queue signal "more like this," while marking something as "Not Interested" teaches the feed to steer away.

Tap the menu icon in the top-right corner to open Feed Settings. Here you can control what appears in your For You feed:

Patterns & Projects - Show both types (default).
Patterns Only - Focus on discovering new patterns.
Projects Only - See finished projects and works-in-progress from the community.

You can also Reset Feed to start fresh - this clears your seen history and re-analyzes your Ravelry favorites from scratch to rebuild your preference profile. Useful if your taste has shifted or you want a completely fresh start.
