Knowing how to fix your stuff should be something people focus on way more than we do these days.

I’m in no way proficient at all, but I made sure to know how to:
- hand stitch fallen buttons
- hand stitch rips in jeans, etc, so they at least stop growing :D
- operate a (foot powered)sewing machine (last thing I “fixed” was a sleeping bag whose lining was ripping and the fluff inside was all loose. Ugly, but functional again. Punk!)
- knit (both with needles, and those knitting looms. Don’t ask me to make anything other than scarfs/hats :D)

I also love the “analog” sewing machine we bought from an old couple and that I brought with us when moving hundreds of km away. We don’t use it much, but even the machine itself is a work of art!

As someone else said: “knitting is manly as fuck. It’s like welding, but for your clothes”
