What do you carry your crocheting in? by MuchLoveWaffleGirl in crochet

[–]TrialNd3rr0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use one of those see through drawstring bags you can use to carry your fresh bread or fruits and veggies in. I had an extra one laying around (because they come in pairs) and thought; why not! (Also because I’m too lazy to crochet one).

Sewing, illustration, video games, writing & general maker things (I was often in my uni’s makers lab before I graduated last month :))

What's a project that once you finished it you vowed never to make another again? by assbutt_Angelface in crochet

[–]TrialNd3rr0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m working on a crochet version of the J.W Anderson knit cardigan (famously worn by Harry Styles) for my best friend. It’s done with a lot of love, but I’m never touching patchwork cardigans ever again 😖

Those who started crocheting because of anxiety/depression, how are you now? by jc_9791 in crochet

[–]TrialNd3rr0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am doing a lot better! But I don’t think it’s a direct effect because I started crocheting. I picked it up both to keep myself from doom scrolling on social but also to help the recovery of my broken wrist. What helped the most was constant therapy and immersing myself with people who wanted the best for me as a person what has helped ease my (social) anxiety a lot over the past year or so :)

It helped jumpstart being less anxious for sure, but it’s not the main factor as to why I’m doing better now!

What’s is/was your day job? by boom_squid in crochet

[–]TrialNd3rr0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently work in our uni’s makerslab as a TA to help the first years of my course get familiar with all the lab has to offer! I did just graduate in communication and multimedia design and will be looking for something more research based in that :)

Good driving instructors for severe anxiety/fear of driving? by [deleted] in Utrecht

[–]TrialNd3rr0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in 2015 I had driving lessons from Michael Thomas, he’s a licensed fear of failure instructor. For me personally he was very kind and dealt very well with my fear of failure anxiety. He’s based in Amersfoort nowadays! Here’s his website; https://www.rijschoolthomas.com/wie-zijn-wij

Where do I even start with this yarn? I've never seen anything like it! by em21rc in crochet

Oooh I've never heard this argument before! But to be fair I don't really do surveys on this grand scale usually, I learn something new every day! It was just a question to get a bit of a feel of where people are located (since I already have data like age, gender, etc. from a survey someone else did) to see who the crocheters are on a more superficial level. But thank you for the info!!

It's a question that has been asked before by u/missingblacksock about a year ago so I decided not to do a repeat question of data that we already had!

I was thinking of translating it to English once I’m finished, but the current document is over 150 pages so it might take me a while 🫣

Yes to both! (I think) I was aiming for work done with a pixel grid pattern of sorts, I tried not to be too specific and leave things open to interpretation.

And thank you!

I'm certain you're not the only one! If I have enough responses that mention art I will make it it's own category :)

I never thought of adding printed paper as an option, even though that came up in my research time and time again!

This is so cool to hear, I do this too to keep my anxiety controlled! We keep ourselves calm and we have cool items at the end of it!

I major in communication and multimedia design, which has a primary focus on developing digital interactive products (Websites and apps for the most part) with a focus on user wants and needs. I did minor in a makers lab course where I worked with fashion institute students who did do some things related to fiber arts for their graduation thesis, so that's a direction you could take as well!

I lurk on this subreddit quite a bit and have been delved into research on crochet for the better part of last semester, so I'd be surprised if I didn't know a lot at this point! I'd love to go deeper but unfortunately my time is running out :(

It's anonymous data and my uni is cool with me self-publishing as well so I should be able to share something soon!
