Tapestry of love [G, 1.7k]

Summary:

Rayla learns the difference between sewing, knitting, and crochet.

Or: I'm a crocheter who was (and still am) flabbergasted at Rayla mixing up sewing and knitting. So I wrote a fic where Ethari teaches her the difference, and also how to crochet.

Six Sentence Sunday

@carryon-disability-week has concluded! Thank you to everyone who participated; I have truly enjoyed seeing more Carry On works involving disability being created. (And late submissions are welcome if you're still thinking about participating!) You can find the masterpost here!

I also posted that ruthari fic I teased on Sunday! Contains no TDP 6 spoilers.

**Very minor TDP 6 spoilers ahead**

I am still so flabbergasted about sewing and knitting, of all things, getting mixed up. Seriously though, how does SEWING get mixed up with knitting?!?! Usually it's crochet and knitting getting mixed up. I'm not even mad or horrified, I'm just in shock. How does this even happen?! Who raised you, Rayla?!?! (/lh)

Anyway, I'm writing a fic where Ethari teaches Rayla how to sew, knit, AND crochet because. Why not. I love teaching people about crochet through fanfic. It's high time Rayla's master craftsman dad taught her the difference.

Sewing:

Rayla does a little shimmy in her seat as she finishes up the last few stitches of the moon primal rune, fastening off the thread and snipping it. She holds it up and spreads it out, admiring it. It’s nowhere near as polished as Ethari’s, but she’s proud of it.

Crochet:

Rayla goes for the bin labeled “sewing”, but is distracted by a long metal hook and a half-finished yarn project on the top. She runs a hand along it, fingering the hook.

“Is this knitting?”

At the silence behind her, she turns halfway around to find the two elves eyeing her, Ethari flabbergasted and Runaan holding back laughter.

Just a family of neurodivergent adults 🥰 Wait until Rayla finds out about Tunisian crochet.
