I've always loved flashlights. Yes FLASHLIGHTS with an A!!! Anyway, apparently not many people share my rather niche interest.

So I ask you, fellow Lemmites, what are your hobbies and weird obsessions that you can ramble on about for hours?

Please feel free to ramble on about your passions here. Maybe you'll find some likeminded individuals!

Fiber arts: popular ones like knitting and crocheting, but I also have a spinning wheel and really enjoy spinning yarn. I used to have a loom, but I didn't really enjoy weaving so I sold it. Lately I've been really in to darning socks and visible mending generally. Fortunately there are tons of fiber arts meetups and online communities so it's easy to find other people who are into any niche area.

It always makes the hobby more enjoyable when you have others to share the joy with. I'm happy you have a large group to enjoy!
