I just got into knitting and I'm already dreading wearing anything I make around my family. "Can you make me a sweater, oh come on, why are you so selfish?" I dunno because it would be a month of work and hundreds in materials and no matter what I explained to them, it would just get treated like a random polyester sweater and they'd probably ruin it or toss it when they decided they don't like the style anymore... And my family is the kind to criticise any imperfections that didn't look machine produced.
