so i've been delving deep in to techwear and taking the merino wool pill but then realized how expensive all this fucking shit is. i want to completely throw out my old wardrobe full of killer cotton and shitty low grade material clothing out to a dumpster fire where it belogns.
the caveat is im broke so i decided to start making some of my own clothes and possibly hemming others.
started picking up a few tutorials and preparing.
anyone have any tips or just want to larp on making the perfect fit?

idk bothering with all that sounds like you really have nothing to do with your time if you're only doing it to replace your wool with merino wool but i think taking some classes for making clothes would be a good idea and save you time by helping you fuck up less

if you decide to make your own clothes you should probably take some classes and read up the topic to not waste as much fabric while trying to learn it. if you want to do something easier you could teach yourself to knit. it's not too hard and you can teach yourself how to do it.

The most i've done is cut the sleeves of some shirts.
It honestly seems like too much work, but if you're the creative type then it must be fun.

thanks for the responses; will take classes.
if anyone wants any youtube videos on learning the basic shit, sailrite has some really good sewing videos with zero bullshit.

Making clothes is just cosplay for less autistic people
