I immediately thought of tatting just because it's kind of interesting that you can do it two such different ways with such different tools, and also because using a shuttle looks like actual witchcraft.
Do you have any projects? I would love to see some of your work
Alas, not really! I have a cheap shuttle and am still trying to get the hang of "the flip" but I'll get it eventually. I did manage a sort of wonky snowflake but that's about it so far. Trouble is, as you know, all the other hobbies getting in the way ๐
Currently working on cross stitching a dragon from the Discworld books, knitting some crazy speckly socks and a shawl that is way behind where it needs to be to be finished on time, and planning various sewing projects. RIP my free time.
Just left another comment with links to some of the more active craft communities on here, we'd love to see what you're working on if you ever want to share!
I'm trying needle tatting, but my experience is to end up with exactly what I started with, namely a thread waiting to be used :) While it's easy in theory, I still have problems of grasping the building blocks.
My last big project was a "never again" cross-stitch from aliexpress. Totally understandable where you are :) And thank you for the links, I missed one of those from my subscriptions!
