And Farscape.

We do have “poultry” as a catch-all for domestic birds. Not exactly the same as beef/cow, but definitely has a Norman connection.

I spin yarn! I have a normal spinning wheel and a small electric, but I prefer spindles. I’ve just recently worked up the guts to finally touch some of my more luxurious fiber. It’s really nice because I can sit down and watch a movie or listen to podcasts and not have to pay attention to my hands and if I get tired of sitting, I can easily walk around with it. I haven’t actually knitted (or crocheted) with any of the yarn I’ve made, but I swear I will, just as soon as I find the perfect pattern.

It’s not an expensive hobby to get into either. You can buy a cheap Turkish spindle and some decent wool for under $30 USD or you can even make a drop spindle with a CD and a dowel.

If there’s a makerspace in your area, they might have a woodworking workshop.
