Not sure how I missed this thread originally...but nice to see fiber
artists on Silk.
I knit, crochet, tat, macrame, embroider and spin. I also do a lot
of knitting on planes and also (famously) in meetings.

I crochet, and knit...mostly knitting these days. I've done
cross-stitch in the past, but not since I was a teenager. No tatting
(yet?). I also sew, though not nearly as often as I used to.
Remember
what I said in my intro about too many hobbies?
same here :) stopped knitting after making socks for 2 left feet,
sized for an elephant.
A brief proof-of-concept test showed that I can embroider some seed
pearls onto a piece of silk in a serviceable manner...and thus an
elaborate bodice for a wedding dress will be born.
ah... indian embroidery is a wee bit different, too jazzy and
colourful is what i have been told. You will see it all when you land
here :)
I get some of my best knitting done on airplanes, but sometimes they
don't like to let you onto the plane with knitting needles. I
imagine
they'll be more laid back about an embroidery needle.
Hmpf.... people get into trouble for carrying a clear bottle of
H2O...knitting needles....on board? are you kidding me :-P
How about you?
crochet, sew (less now), embroidery (to spice that boring kurta), and
anything that catches my fancy in between.
