I will say, for the first story, a huge part of what got me into knitting was the loud clicking of the needles... it's a satisfying sound to me. So in that first story, the op asking the knitter to stop makes total sense to me. I may like it but I'm acutely aware of how loud and distracting the sound might be in a live performance setting.

I’m a knitter as well and I get it too. Sometimes I’ll switch to plastic or wood tips if I know the sound of metal clicking is annoying to someone I know, and will be around. Or I’ll bring a quieter project to be accommodating. People just need to be polite when asking for accommodations, because it’s not inherently rude to knit or crochet in public

I doubt they were intentionally upsetting themselves, as someone who struggles similarly, it is 95% out of my control but I am trying to lessen the issue through mindfulness. The person was very respectful when asking, the woman knitting took it very personally, which I also can understand I guess.

Thoughts on knitting in a relationship: my husband and I are married for 2 years, but have been together for 8 years. I picked up knitting as a hobby about a year ago and he is super supportive of it. He always said I needed a hobby, and he always wants to take me yarn shopping now. I realize that I do spend a lot of time knitting, and I’m the one that feels guilty that I may not be showing enough attention to him. I sometimes ask him “are you mad that I’m knitting right now? Do you want me to stop while we watch tv?” And he’s always like “No! Do you whatever you want. If it makes you happy, go right ahead!”

Hi, a crocheted wedding dress in less than 2 months and for free? That’s Crazy! Yarn alone would be 100’s of dollars plus the amount of your time to copy a dress from a photo would be astronomical.

I think it's so ridiculous that peoples kept saying "You can't pay attention and knit/crochet". I have issues paying attention and tend to fidget crocheting helps me pay attention and it's a way for me to fidget. Honestly these people need a reality check on what it means to crochet/knit

My mom got mad about me crocheting while my kids were playing water balloons because she said "we're supposed to be spending time together" and I was SO thrown off, because it takes zero of me away. It just keeps me calm.

What if it’s the fact she DOESN’T LIKE the tv show?!

I was a dressmaker for many years, & I wouldn't even have sewn a wedding dress for a friend! People don't understand how complex wedding dresses & all their accessories are. A crocheted dress would probably also need a slip, & the fitting & tension of the design would be so hard to achieve without a pattern. The offer of a shawl is such a much better item, because there are no fit issues, & it could be accomplished in the time available. I agree with you that some details of the story seem to be missing, but I don't think that anyone should expect a friend to make them a wedding dress.

The first woman was absolutely kind IMO. I'm a crocheter and I would be very distracted if the needles would work that loudly. Absolutely not A.hole I would have moved without asking if I was the knitter😅

My boyfriend was actually the one who introduced me to crochet. I was in a deep depression and he dragged me to Barnes and Noble and he picked out a Harry Potter crochet book and kit. I never ended up making anything from that kit, but I used that hook and yarn and learned the basics and an obsession was born. My boyfriend has been my biggest supporter, especially because it’s had such an impact on my mental health. The boyfriend in the Reddit story sounds like my ex. They would have written that story if I had been crocheting while we were still together.

42:46 when she said it was short notice she definitely meant that it wasn’t a lot of time for people to prepare. I don’t know what month this was, but generally people plan wedding for at least a year in advance. If it’s January and they’re getting married in April then that doesn’t leave friends and family much time to get off work, buy gifts, get flights if they live far away, etc. She also says that “even a skilled crocheter” would need at least 2 months for this project. To me that says the wedding less than 2 months away, but could be 3 or 4 away and she’s estimating that it would take her quite a bit longer than 2 months. In addition, all of her other friends gifts were free. I think the story implies that the friend said she wanted her gift to be her wedding dress. If payment was offered, I assume the OP would have said so. But even if the friend offered payment, I think the issue here is that OP clearly doesn’t have enough time to complete the project. The friend is TA because she’s is expecting a n extravagant project worth thousands of dollars for free, and is unwilling to accept any compromise. She accuses OP of playing favorites for giving all her other friends gloves and scrunchies, when clearly she is entitled and wanting a gift worth hundreds of times what the others were, would take months instead of hours or days, and is like a hundred times the size. This is very cut and dry to me. OP is NTA.

About the person who asked the knitter to stop…she should have herself moved to one of the empty seats. That’s what I would have done. Then I’d get away from the needles but not bother the knitter.

So I'm someone who has ADHD and I hate the sound of metal knitting needles since I can't really deal with repetitive noises well. I wouldn't say anything since I don't want to be rude by asking them to put it away since I'll crochet in public so I'll put on my headphones if someone knits with metal needles 😁 Also my bf loves that I crotchet since he likes to assist by undoing knots and pulling out yarn for me.

I would definitely get annoyed if someone next to me was knitting while we were at an event. I cant tune out incessant constant noises like that. In my apartment when the AC is on it will slightly vibrate the walls and will cause a little buzz sound where picture frames touch the wall or where the door meets the doorframe. It bothers me so much. My husband doesnt even notice it but when I hear it i cant get it out of my head until i find where its coming from an adjust whatever is causing the buzz sound to make it stop. I crochet so i understand that people want to bring projects with them places but i probably couldnt stand sitting next to a lady knitting with that light clacking sound of the knitting when im trying to focus on something else. I definitely think the knitting lady overreacted. If that were me id feel awkward and say sorry but id either stop or move seats if i really wanted to do it so badly.

I started talking to my current boyfriend a week before Christmas. We finally met up in person the day before NYE.

For the first AITA, I think it greatly depends on the type of show. Clearly this Folk music "event" is similar to attending a symphony. I attend these regularly and ANY noise at all can be heard through the music, no matter how quiet that noise is. Knitting needles would definitely be rude and ruin the music everyone else. At events like this, it is inappropriate. At events that are louder and less formal, such as movies as mentioned or other genres of music, go for it! Each type of event is different and I think we need to understand this point a little more.

As for the one about her crocheting while watching tv and him wanting to cuddle I think both could compromise. Like when me and my husband watch tv/movie together at home we normally start out cuddling and then if we’re watching multiple episodes or a movie I’ll then crochet… after we’ve cuddled. Relationships are about compromise and showing love to the other person, it’s not about me me me. It’s about us and they both should be thinking of the other person and trying to make them happy.

I love you and Im a paid member. I did not care for the drama of reddit stories. I want to relax and learn not get all pissy at stupid people on reddit.

I was gaping about the man who said that his GF couldn't pay attention to him while crocheting/knitting because I am knitting a beanie while watching this right now! The crocheting in the background was so relaxing, and I will be the first one to watch any other storytime/AITA videos!

On the trains in the UK, unless you have assigned seats, you risk losing a seat if there's not another one free. You could end up standing for hours on a train ride. For certain portions of the journey, especially during peak times, it's not uncommon to have more passengers than seats. By leaving, she would have to risk standing for at least part of her journey.

I’m highly sensitive and in the process of getting tested for autism/adhd and repetitive sounds are the bane of my existence no matter HOW soft or inaudible they are. Eventually the soft sounds (and along with the hand movements) creep their way into my brain and start festering up until the point that my entire body starts to ache and I even get aggressive. People telling me that I should “just find another seat” at a concert so I’m not bothered by someone who WILLINGLY disrupts a silent concert with a knitting project are ableist and selfish AF and should go kick rocks. I paid for my ticket too and I am entitled to a fun experience as well, so if I’m at such a concert and I’m bothered by your knitting, you can bet your sweet bippy I’m going to say something about it.

totally agreed as a neurodivergent crafter. its ridiculous that people don't see this side

I wouldn't have taken my knitting to a concert, I would definitely take it for the drive but not to the venue🤷🏽‍♀️

That dress story is wild, crochet wedding dresses are a crazy amount of work and the friend clearly doesn’t understand or respect that

Loved this format!!

Please make more of these omg!! Great for listening while knitting

I don't think it's unreasonable to understand how someone fidgeting may be distracting. I know my attention can get disrupted with things like that. OP could've moved themselves, or the knitter could've easily scooted over a seat. No idea what was going on with them at the time to be so upset about it, but that's not a huge ask. As for the relationship one, oh boy. Looking at OP's replies, he only seemed to focus on ones that leaned in his favor, which just tells me this relationship isn't going to last. Confronting difficulties, not just compromising, is part of relationships too. It sounds like he wasn't really communicating properly with her. And lord, 30 years old??? I for sure tuned that out and was 100% expecting teens for what he was describing. There are definitely middle grounds to find there, but you have to actually be open to finding them. The top came out great too btw! x'D And thanks for reading replies as well. It always bothers me to watch Reddit videos that don't include some replies! haha

I just watched your tutorial for granny squares right before I noticed you had uploaded this video, so I am now watching whilst making granny squares. I am really loving this style video. The top is gorgeous

lol, I’ve told my husband I didn’t want to go to the bar b/c I was on a roll and didn’t want to stop crocheting. He told me to bring it with 😂 I bring it every time now 😉

I love watching your videos as well as Reddit stories while I crochet. I am crocheting while watching you crochet and listening to you read stories about crocheting/knitting. I would watch this if you made a series, but you are a one woman business, so I understand it’s not that simple. Thank you for all the effort you put in to your content, it’s all so lovely!

TV-guy needs his own hobby. My husband and I routinely watch documentary series while I crochet, and he builds Lego. This week, we've been bingeing "Dark Side of Comedy" while I crocheted a poncho, and he clicked together a series of Micropolis builds for an event coming up in October.

R/craftsnark has the best knitting and crotchet tea (and other crafts) ! Love this vid ❤️

I do like the Idea of adding fiber arts Reddit stories from time to time, as I was able to finish my project with out having to look up and just listen.

Love this kind of content! I crochet every time I watch smosh Reddit stories.

"you cant knit and pay attention at the same time!" Meanwhile I'm fully paying attention to this video... while knitting socks.

really enjoyed this format! doesn't have to be crochet necessarily but maybe simply craft related🤷‍♀

This was a fun video! I felt bad for the girl whose boy friend didn't want her to crochet when they hung out. My boyfriend is so supportive of my crochet! He always asks about my projects and even bought me those double lensed glasses to help me watch TV and Crochet at the same time! the top you made looks great!!

For the first story the knitting lady acted unreasonably from what we know. OP paid to be at the concert just like the lady knitting, but when you bring your projects out in public you have to aware of the other people around you. I think it's reasonable to suggest the lady knitting moves but OP could have also tried to move away. I would be upset if I paid money for an experience and couldn't enjoy it because of somebody else making noise especially when there was room for her to move away and be less distracting. This could've easily been solved where both parties could continue to enjoy the show in their own ways without distracting one another.

Literally, the story about the person being annoyed by the knitter at a concert is the guy from Sinead O'Conner's music video, The Emperor's New Clothes. I know I'm old, but I can sense a side eye from 30 years ago!

Literally got so excited to see that this is a new concept youre trying

crocheted at a three days grace concert and everyone was so curious as to what i was doing. them intermissions be longgggg😅

The story about the guy getting jealous of his girlfriend’s crochet is funny to me because my boyfriend and I are the same ages as them (we’ve been together for about 7 months) and I crochet while we watch TV together too. We’ve been watching his favorite series (he’s seen it 4 times, I never have) and just last week as he was setting it up, before he pressed play he turned to me and asked “do you have something to crochet? Do you want to grab it first?” We cuddle while I crochet. I also choose not to crochet sometimes to give him my full attention. While he plays video games, I crochet and we’ll take breaks and talk about his game or my project. On long drives, I crochet if he’s driving. Sometimes I won’t so I can hold his hand instead. It is possible to humor each other with your respective hobbies and spend quality time together simultaneously, but sometimes it should be set aside to have one on one time. The guy is weird but also not COMPLETELY wrong (but def like 99% wrong and still definitely the asshole)

More of this please! I love listening to long form craft drama while playing with yarn

perfect for crocheting our own project in the meantime! Love thisss
