That's an awesome project, Den!

I learned to skate on ice, but when I tried roller skating, quads seemed much easier to me. Haven't been using either in quite a while, but I think I still have the equipment.

[Den]

I just need skate plates now. I've got wheels, the base shoes, and stops on the way... but the plates I want are EXPENSIVE. I want metal ones, because the nylon ones tend to flex with heavier skaters, which I happen to be... and I want my skates to last for at least two years of regular use...

I found the cutest crochet pattern but something tells me it might be the project that'd make me go off the deep end lol

[Den]

I'm working on this in rainbow colors...

[EverAshwood]

*heart eyes* oh, if I could knit...

[Den]

There're youtube tutorials and books out there...

[EverAshwood]

And yet I end up watching videos on loom kitting instead lmao
What is my life

*looks at my few looms i have*

Haha, I swear, by the end of the summer, I'll probably have gotten like....5 people to at least try loom knitting! Well...maybe only 3 unless we count the 2 who have already started learning...

I'm on the third chart of the pattern, and am on yellow yarn now :3

You definitely got me. That video you showed earlier looks reasonably easy for a beginner, she explains it very well there.

No idea if I will actually stick to loom knitting now that I have mastered the basics of crochet, but trying new stuff is always fun

[Kaderin Triste]

I would say that loom knitting would be a great thing to learn so there are more options to what you can make. It might be easier to make certain things with it than crochet, but crochet is generally more versatile to an extent and there are thousands more knit and crochet patterns than there are loom knitting. For super simple extra thick scarves, loom knitting is always handy. XD

[Death by Mirrors]

Yeah, more options are always nice. I do know people have managed to loom knit socks and stuff, so even with less patterns it's still versatile, but right now I can't actually say which yarn related craft I like best. They all have their individual advantages and individual limits. Felting is probably my least favorite of all wool things I tried so far.

[Kaderin Triste]

Socks can be pretty easy on looms. I've not yet made a pair of normal socks, but I have made a few toeless socks. (Basically just because the pattern seemed easy and I like my toes to be free. XD)

Ooooh. I haven't tried felting yet, but I would like to eventually.
One of mu favorite yarn things to do is to dye yarn. But I haven't bought any white or natural yarns in a while for it.

[Death by Mirrors]

I have never dyed my own yarn so far, nor have I tried to spin it. Mainly because I can't get the proper supplies and/or tools here, so those things I can actually get earn a higher priority spot on my "to try"-list.

Are toeless socks just long tubes or do they have a heel?
