I feel like something that doesnt get talked about enough is how fast fashion is coming to hobbies as well. Sure, you can sew, knit, and crochet something better than youd buy in store, but good luck finding quality materials
Want a fabric that doesnt fray from being gently caressed? Want yarn thats not 100% plastic and splits if you touch it wrong? Good luck finding that if you dont have a genuinely good crafts store near you.
Go on any thread where people are trying to figure out where to buy fabric. 50% of it is people saying big stores are servicable, online stores work, or the like, and the other 50% are talking about how bad the quality is or how the quality of a website dropped because it was bought out
Were running into a problem where fast fashiob is so integrated into society that even the ability to make your own, comfortable and long lasting, clothes is being threatened by capitalism

Palekh miniature is a Russian folk handicraft of a miniature painting, which is done with tempera paints on varnished articles made of papier-mâché (including the creation of small boxes, cigarette cases, and powder cases).

A Taka Paete Horse,
kinda sorta. I used my squishy horse proportions on it.
It's a paper mache handicraft from Laguna province in the Philippines. I dunno if they still sell DIY kits of these.

In Calabria weaving has its roots in Magna Graecia, the civilisation built by ancient Greeks on Italy's southern coast. Still, until fifty years ago many Calabrian families owned a hand loom at home and self-produced most of their fabrics.
