I'm looking for a place for knitting and crafting. I'm not sure how to search sublinks. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

There is https://beehaw.org/c/creative which seems to be fairly active and certainly includes some knitters.

Thank you! Trying to find groups is a little confusing. This was just what I was looking for. :)

Yep this is the "official" one so far insofar as that's a thing, our plan is to basically gather all crafters and creative types there for now until it becomes obvious that one type of craft is overtaking everything and should be split out.

We also have various related communities: https://slrpnk.net/communities

Maybe: https://slrpnk.net/c/clothing or our more DIY focussed communities?

Thank you! I think looking at communities is awesome. There really should be a bigger general link for all the Reddit refugees. I'm a mobile user so there might be on the desktop version but I'm not seeing anything on 🐁

I don't know of any specific knitting community, but I'd love to join one if someone makes one

[–] thegiddystitcher@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

We would love to see your knitting over at !creative@beehaw.org 😄

If I find one I'll send it to you and anyone that posts interest here. Stitch comrades ho!

Edit: So it looks like there's the creative sub above. https://beehaw.org/c/creative

If you're looking to browse other subs here is great link!! https://browse.feddit.de/

I am also for a split off knitting group. https://beehaw.org/c/creative is the current space. Please do post your knitting there and join in the conversation so we can see your WIPS and finished objects. I would love to see them.
