What Other Crafts do You Enjoy?

Wednesday April 30, 2008
There's a big, wide crafting world out there, and I'd guess most people aren't just knitters, but also crochet, make scrapbooks, quilt or bead jewelry, just to name a few examples.

This week I'd like to know what other crafts you do besides knitting. If you want to share your favorite craft, or how you combine several crafts to make your own mixed media masterpieces (any altered book fanatics out there?) please do so in the comments.

This poll is multiple choice, so click all the boxes that apply.

Forgot tatting & punch needle and Polymer clay, Sarah… tatting’s on my A list. Miss it terribly when I don’t do it. Punch Needle & Polymer Clay is on the B list.. done it and will do it again.
Have tried Quilting but I would blush to call myself a quilter. More like a waster of good fabric!

Unfortunately the polls we use only give me 10 choices, so I tried to go with the ones I thought would be most popular. Sorry I missed your faves!

Yes, far too limited a set of choices. I also spin my own yarns, dye, hook traditional rugs, garden, bake, read and many other wonderful hobbies.

I like to weave also. Wonder why weaving isn’t listed as an other craft?

You left out my passion: plastic canvas.

Even though the knitting choice said it was the only choice for me - I could have picked that one since I knit more than anything else, but I do like lots of other crafts. I don’t know if there is any craft that I don’t enjoy. I also tat and would like to take up weaving ans spinning at some point in my life. My daughter and I started quilting last year and while she does more than I do, I have really liked what I have done. I keep telling people that working REALLY cuts into my crafting time.
