I hate searching the web for e.g. "crochet magic circle" and getting thousands of ad-riddled influencer-esque blog articles that don't even get to the point until you're at the bottom of the page... The fiber arts scene is just as ridiculous as the recipe blog scene. I'm sorry if you feel that you have to monetize every little thing you do, but the market is flooded and your users/readers probably hate everything about your site. #crochet #fiberarts #knitting

For fiber artists, a list of signs that a set of instructions is probably llm-slop. The article is by a crochet designer, but the signs are relevant beyond crochet. #knitting #crochet #FiberArts no advice please https://www.moderndailyknitting.com/community/how-to-spot-ai-fake-pattern/

@weaving@fedigroups.social @fiberarts@fedigroups.social Fresh off the loom: doublewidth throws in integrated plain weave. Still have to fringe, wet finish and brush. Since they are so big, I think I will step on them in the tub to full them. This is a destash project—which, of course, means I had to buy more yarn to actually do it. 😂 Those stripes are gifted yarns I have had for a couple of decades! If you don’t see me for a while, I’ll be fringing! 😅 #weaving #FiberArts #Yarn #Wool #craft #handmade

RE: https://sunny.garden/@Paws2Spindle/116961470705350878 Question for fiber folks about moths: Last night, I forgot I had these skeins out drying until after dark. When I went to bring them in, a moth flew up from one of the skeins. These are a blend of wool and dog fur. Should I be worried that the moth might have laid eggs in the yarn? Should I throw them in the freezer or do something more drastic? I'm keeping them well separate from the rest of my stash for now. #Yarn #FiberArts #HandSpinning

Tour de fleece part 3 3 braids of Bluefaced Leicester, I'm spinning it a bit thicker than usual and then chain ply to keep the color sequences. At least that's the plan. @fiberarts@fedigroups.social @handspinning@fedigroups.social #tourDeFleece2026 #handspinning #fiberarts

@Pepijn@mastodon.online #FiberArts hobbies are flooded by slop. Made up patterns, faking knitting or crocheting tutorials, it's everywhere. If you're experienced enough, you spot them at a glance. It's for the beginners that i worry. This may be blocking some people who want to give it a shot and don't understand why they can't reach the result in the picture.

Winding neatly into Turkish spindles never stops being one of the coolest looking things. #FiberArts #spinning #DropSpindle

From a mailing list I'm on: "A researcher doing work for her dissertation is conducting a survey about the Royal School of Needlework stitch bank. She is trying to understand how it is currently being used and how it might be beneficial in the future. The survey is only live for a few days more so if you feel so inclined to help her out feel free to click": https://qualtrics.ucl.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_0I1TJjHJBU10qCW #Embroidery #FiberArts

Ooh, look! I made a thing! A bracing #adapter to allow my planetary gear #embroideryFloss winder (a bit over engineered) to be used with larger #spools/#bobbins to roll up things like #yarn, twine, and paracord. #3DPrinting #fiberArt #fiberArts https://www.printables.com/model/1780927-winder-spool-adapter

Ever since I organised a Sashiko and Boro mending workshop at work I’ve been obsessed! Finally finished this double-sided table mat and bound it today #sewing #Embroidery #fiberarts

#TourDeFleece Stage 10 No actual spinning, but plenty busy nonetheless! The white husky/wool blend was now dry after a second wash, so I removed it from the PVC frame and wound it into a cake. It's nice and white, and a close enough match for the Rio gray for me to move forward with that double-knit project. I blended up another 4 oz of 1:1 Tibetan Mastiff / Espresso merino for a project where I'm more interested in color than maximizing fur content and character. That came out really well. And finally I transferred the 2:1 TM/Espresso merino singles to 3 cones for plying. More on that in the next post. Overall, a productive day! #TourDeFleece2026 #HandSpinning #FiberArts

#TourDeFleece today was a rest day but I spun anyway and will likely take a different day off. I finished plying my Blanket Octopus spin. As I mentioned yesterday, the second bobbin was a lot finer than the first. I ran out of singles from the first while I still had about 1 oz left on the second. I made a center pull ball with what was left and plied from the inside and outside of that ball. It’s been soaked and snapped and is now drying. #Handspinning #TourDeFleece2026 #TextileArts #FiberArts

#tourdefleece day 5, more yarn on the bobbin ^^ I am hoping to finish spinning all of this alpaca, and maybe ply it with some merino. That's my TDF goal - but we'll see. #fiberarts #fiber #alpaca #spinning

Today is the first day of Tour de France, and therefore also Tour de Fleece, where spinners spin each day the bikers race. I'm starting with spinning up these amazing braids of Rambouillet dyed by Fossil Fibers - Bee Hummingbird colorway. I'll post another pic EOD but this is where I am after the opening TdF Zoom with Darn Knit Anyway. #handspinning #TourDeFleece #TourDeFleece2026 #TextileArts #FiberArts

Show me your rainbow apparel? I have a desire to be more visibly queer coded in public spaces, to signal to my people that we are Here, even if it's not safe for me to see them. Bonus points for handmade #fiberArts or links to knitting patterns or yarns. #lgbtq #queer #knitting

These doesn't exactly feel the most appropriate day to have done this (🥵) but I've *finally* finished my late winter blanket. It was delayed by 6 weeks while I did a "find the discontinued yarn" quest, then I had to frog & redo two sections when I realised I wasn't happy with the colour contrast - but now it's finally done. Considering I made it up as I was going, I'm really happy with it - now to put it away in a cupboard for 3+ months 🤣 #crochet #fiberarts
