Sadly I was never able to perfectly recreate that cashmere sweater, though I came close. Getting perfect gauge is really hard to do on fitted garments for knitting. Mom had wanted me to learn to knit since I was really little but it never caught my interest until I was an adult. Through the pandemic we did work together to knit a modular blanket and sewed it together once we could meet up in person again! https://imgur.com/a/u4M4ynb
Fiddling with my clothes/hair/anything within reach. For the big “fancy” idle animations that trigger after like 5 minutes of inactivity, I’d bust out my knitting/crochet or a book.
