I don’t hate it but it is a pain to work with. If it wasn’t so darn expensive, I’d use it all the time though cuz it is sooooo satisfying when you’re done :sweat_smile:

For testing, or just for making in general testing, fun, market prep, or for designing preferences

Also for yarn preference at least 2 (in my personal opinion) big options were not available to pick, those being chenille yarn & then furry yarn

For amigurumi I only like small ones because I genuinely have no idea what I should do with bigger ones. Or where to put them :sweat_smile:

Autistically (to be clear this is my personal Autistic experience & I am not in anyway implying all autistics would feel the same In anyway) for my brain no I can’t, because they are so different in my opinion, but I completely get that you can’t change it, plus I haven’t tried a lot of yarn types yet, so I don’t think I can honestly say I have a favorite yet, but I do know unless it’s soft (to me) and has any wool% in it I won’t use it unless its for someone I really care about, because it’s so hard for me to use texture wise, but I have no problem if it’s a soft yarn basically, and also I swear sparkly velvet is a evil texture :joy: just NO NOPE I’m good.

In General other then my answers animals & monsters/mythical creatures, all my answers depend upon my mood/vibe about the project, like do I see it & think I MUST HAVE THAT IN MY WARDROBE ASAP, or (insert loved ones name here) WOULS LOVE THAT THEY MUST HAVE IT AND I WILL MAKE IT FOR THEM THEY SHALL BE OBSESSED WHEN THEY SEE IT, along with the I think this might help (insert loved one’s name here or their loved one’s name) feel better if they saw that and I could give it to them, so I don’t have a category in the clothes vs. Amigurumi vs. small vs. big answer, I have the would someone I care about or they care about like this, would it help them, and the must make myself that because the idea of having that (animal, sweater, blanket) makes me do a happy dance, I’m that kind of maker, my first projects were for my mum, my 1st & 2nd plush went to my chosen family little sister as a gift, my first project for myself was a 3 layer crochet chain necklace (I was 11 and didn’t now much beyond chain and slip stitch) but I was 11 and thought it was the coolest thing and it wade me giddy to have a 3 layer chain necklace with the added bonus of being quite since it’s yarn not metal, but I felt so awesome wearing it, that’s the kind of projects I gravitate towards and the kind of maker I am
