Knitting while commuting to work or while watching television.
When I’m not reading, I enjoy cooking. I have recently tried combining the two, listening to audio books while baking or making dinner.
I’m not a crafty person, so I would give the yarn to a friend who is. My hobbies consist of reading books and taking sofa naps. Lol
Photography and reading are my two loves 🙂
Reading, knitting and crocheting.
Obviously it’s reading! I also crochet.
Reading and cross-stitching since I got myself a nifty craft book w patterns inspired by The Golden Girls
I am starting to get back into crochet. I love to read and I love audio books.
I love knitting!
Travelling! But if I have to be stationary, then reading, or knitting and watching something fun, hopefully with my friends. Or gaming with my friends (often with knitting handy). Just picking one hobby is hard!!!
I love to knit, although I’m quite new at it (almost entirely self-taught, and can I just say praise be to all the sweet old grandmas who film themselves slowly using knitting techniques and then post them to Youtube?). I’m a very slow knitter, but I like to knit while I listen to podcasts.

I like reading, crochet, and podcasts in my spare time. Also board and card games.
Reading, knitting, cooking, playing board games with my family 🙂
Reading and knitting are my hobbies. I’m a slow knitter but I tell myself it’s all about the journey.
Knitting while listening to audiobooks. It is a great combination for comfort.
I’m a BIG time knitter, and hedgehog fibers are my favorite yarn!
Reading and crocheting are my two hobbies.
Crocheting while listening to audiobooks with the world’s biggest cup of coffee!
Reading of course! And baking and bowling! And cuddling with my dogs!
Reading, but also sewing. (Or as my husband says, fabric collecting.)
Knitting for sure! Also crossword puzzles, cooking and reading.
Reading, of course. But also knitting and listening to podcasts. Knitting while listening to podcasts. And wishing that I could figure out how to knit and read at the same time. I can’t do fiction audiobooks, my brain doesn’t work that way, though.
I’m a knitter! Mostly sweaters and shawls and dozens of hats.
It used to be food (both cooking and eating), but I’m currently pregnant and most things send me rushing out of the room with dry heaves . So these days it’s staring into space with a lapful of cats.
I have just started learning embroidery! I’m definitely still in the beginner stage but I really enjoy it. As much as reading will always be my first love, it is super nice to have a finished product of my leisure time.
Reading and knitting. Just like I have several books going at one time I tend to have at least three knitting projects going – a small one (like socks or gloves), a medium but still portable project, and something big like a blanket or bag to felt. When I want to mix it up, I sneak in the occasional cross stitch or embroidery project.
Reading, baking, playing my viola. I also love fiber crafts…. lol too many hobbies!
I like to read. I also quilt and try to knit – while listening to audiobooks.
Reading is number 1 of course. Baking and cooking come in second – sadly since the kids have moved out I have fewer
victims, guinea pigspeople to delight these days.Baking is my hobby of choice!
Baking and reading is my favorite way to rewind and relax
Reading, crocheting, cross stitch, sewing. Would like to do more cosplay. Tried to whittle down my yarn stash this year by making scarves, hats and cowls for all my friends for Christmas, but somehow this transitioned into buying more yarn… o_0
Reading and knitting are my favorite hobbies but I’ve started baking more since watching the latest episodes of GBBO!
Sewing! With audiobooks.
My first love is reading. My second love is gaming (D&D is my jam). My third love is crocheting.
I also love to spend my time sewing. Or baking. Or watching r/ videos on YouTube. Whatever I have time/energy/brain power for.
I both knit and crochet although knitting has been the go-to lately since I have been knitting socks.
Embroidery and crossword puzzles!
Reading, of course, and I’ve just started to crochet.
I can’t choose one. I love reading, drawing, painting and sewing. I’m the creative person that creates only when inspiration strikes. At least that is when I have the best outcome.
