I would like to know wood carving
I crochet most. I do some machine sewing. I do some knitting. I used to do folk art painting, but I wasn’t very good at it. I am also very good at house painting though, and decorating, and sometimes enjoy cooking.
I really want to try dyeing yarn. I love beautiful handdyed yarns and I think it would be really fun to make my own. Like painting but you get pretty yarn from it.
my "other" was pottery! I chose 5 that I dont already do.This list made me realize how many hobbies I actually have!wow!

Acid dyeing is surprisingly easy, if you havent tried it yet. You can experiment on a small scrap of yarn to see how it works. Any animal fiber will do. Put the yarn scrap in a microwaveable container filled with water, a splash of vinegar and a few drops of food coloring, heat it in the microwave for a bit and see the magic happen.
Weaving (tapestry or loom)!

That one can be very fun! You can even use Kool-Aid or other food-safe flavorings for a first go at it if you like!

Kool-Aid is awesome. Soda drinks containing food coloring and citric acid work well too, no need to add anything else. Theres a video online that shows how well this works with wool simmered in orange Fanta.
Very nice!
Between other things, I also picked other, because I want to try needle lace
