Looking for a simple craft or hobby to try but im not sure what to try first or what im up for?

So can you suggest me a craft or tell me what you enjoy to do as a craft?

If you have any questions leave a comment if you wish too.

    Years back i made a drop spindle from a wooden dowl i carved by hand to have a simple hook at the top, a stainless steel sink strainer for the weight, and some two part epoxy. It still holds strong to this day. I also built a spinning wheel from wooden toy blocks, a bicycle wheel, and coat hangers. My wife bought me a beautiful spinning wheel a few years later. I need to get it back out and use it.

    Wool is nice but if you can get alpaca you’re gonna love it.

    My hands hurt too much to effectively knot or crochet anything unfortunately

      I would have never gotten into it if someone didn’t give me their old one, since I suck at knitting/crochet. I do use “Wool” in the more universal sense, pretty much any spinnable fibre I can get my hands on. On the bus. On the train. Watching netflix. In the passenger seat. Always spinning. No idea what I’ll do with it all, but power to those of us who spin.
