Bistitchual

c/bistitchual is a hobbyist textile community based on the popular subreddit of the same name. All needlecrafts are welcome, but it has a particular focus on:
- Utilizing multiple techniques in the same project (i.e. knitted sweater with tatted trim).
- Techniques too obscure to sustain their own dedicated community (i.e. nalbinding).

    Ooh a PieFed community! Wonder how that’ll play with Mbin and Lemmy. Followed. Hope this along with the more mainstream textile hobby communities convince me to actually engage in my textile hobbies more often.

      My prior Lemmy instance (lemmy.one) is abandoned and slowly losing functionality, and I had to find somewhere new to move, so I figured… why not PieFed? I like if so far! Seems to be playing well with the other thread platforms, hopefully I’m doing it right.

      Feel free to post your work if you get back into textiles again!

    Neat. Looks like I need to add support for piefed on Fediverser. Would you be interested in becoming an ambassador to help redditors migrate and to get content to bootstrap your community?

        Basically, you need to sign up to fediverser and then add your community as a recommended alternative for the subreddit. Then you’ll be able to “apply” for the ambassador. Once approved, you will be able to see reddit posts and send invites to redditors to migrate.

        The first step though is to have support for PieFed communities. Currently it only recognizes kbin/mbin and Lemmy. I’m pushing the update with this, so in about 30 minutes you’ll (hooefully) be able to do all that I mentioned.
