    I’ve been resisting the urge to get angora bunnies for almost 10 years now. I don’t know how much longer I can hold out.

    This is exactly what it’s like becoming a hobby machinist. Start off with a drill press, end up making all your own tools.

      Yep I had the same experience with coffee. Started with a shitty nespresso machine, moved up to a manual machine, then semi automatic. Now I’m roasting my own beans. I would legit buy a coffee farm and make a living out of it, if I get the opportunity.

    Goats do seem to be the natural end point on the journey that starts by learning to cast on.

      Beware, sheep may be in your future. Or maybe a nice alpaca?

        We have a dog that would torment either. But I wouldn’t mind saving money on lawn maintenance.

      I may have fallen into a rabbit hole of tutorials on this very topic (growing and spinning flax). So. Many. Traps.
