hi you whittle??? how do you even get into whittling? wouldn’t it be messy? do you do it outside? that’s so cool i have so many questions
Aksjaskhskaksb so I need a new hobby every 2-4 months or I will die, and knitting/fiber crafts just ain't it for me texture wise. So my grandfather (may he rot in hell 💖) whittled a lot and I was like 'I can do that!!'
I mostly work with softer woods and soap, so if you do it over a table or a trash can it's not super messy. I only have like a few fixed knives, so I'm not creating sawdust or tiny shavings so its pretty easy to clean up. You definitely can do it outside tho!
I highley recommend. It's super relaxing, pretty easy to get into financially and skill wise (just please for the love of god buy a thumb pad), and!!! People get insanely excited when you make them bowls and spoons and shit!!
