The lungi is a traditional garment worn in many southern states of India. It's different from the dhoti, in that it is a tubular shape (like
Since we are here might as well share the dhoti and the lungi

Itβs only men in the photos but really anyone can wear them. I am wearing a lungi right now.
I also know Thailand and Sri Lanka have their versions of a lungi as well.
The tent is up!
This is a vevor 16.5 ft bell tent (it's gone up in price since I bought it but it's pretty reasonable value for money) painted with latex exterior house paint, the cheapest stuff they had at menards. I used a folding foam mattress on top of the four storage bins my gear was packed in as a cot--quite comfy and practical; I'm going to cut a sheet of plywood as a bin topper and do that again for sure. The guyline shorteners are just sections of 2x2 furring strips, cut and painted. There's documentation on the process for nearly all of this here already.
Some other build notes! To get the pattern onto the tent, I laid the tent out flat in my driveway and cut out a paper template, then traced it with pencil onto each panel. Then, over the winter, I put the tent section-by-section onto a table in my den, and painted one area at a time, just filling in the lines.
The awning in front is two cotton throw blankets, sewn together by hand with an overlap of about 2", so there's a channel in the center that the guyline from the tent door can run through. I did replace the original guyline here with one that's roughly 8 ft longer, to accommodate the awning. I sewed eyelets into the corners of the blankets, and added tassels for fun. The center post for the awning is just a 2x2 furring strip, painted with random extra house paint and paint markers. It's 6'6" tall, and there's a groove in the top to keep the rope in place. The awning is not enough to totally block rain--I really just wanted a sunshade--but it does decrease amount of rain coming through. It does actually need two more posts on the front corners to make the space inside tall enough to stand, which I just did with sticks the next time I set this up.
I've got plenty of posts on how I made the bunting for this also!
You know not going to an event was the right choice when the "I'm here yay!!" posts start popping up on your feed and you don't even feel envious or bummed out about it.
I hope DFUS is fun for y'all but I'm not missing it much.
I don't really think you can blame people for forgetting who you are after being MIA for two years. Like they didn't do anything wrong, they just forgot you because they saw you for a week two years ago. They're not like. Bullying you.

Iβm kinda surprised that nalbinding isnβt as popular as crochet and knitting tbh because it has an even lower barrier of entry tools wise and unlike crochet and knitting it makes fabric that you can cut.
I guess itβs because itβs slower or something.
Nalbinding aka needle binding is when you use yarn and a big sewing needle to make fabric btw
It also has a lot of different kinds of stitches you can do that make different densities of fabric.
Some people even make rugs.
I feel like part of it might be casual people are generally aware of the existence of crochet and knitting, even if they donβt know very much about either, but have never heard of nalbinding
Yeah I hadnβt heard of it until recently and I ordered a big bone needle for myself to try it out and that should be arriving soon.
I was surprised that Iβd never heard of it though. Itβs older than knitting and crocheting and even though itβs been done all over the world itβs super relevant to Nordic culture and my grandmother and I are both into keeping in touch with our roots a bit so Iβm surprised Iβve never heard of it.
It seems like the sort of thing that would be popular even if not as popular as crocheting and knitting, considering the low barrier of entry.
You also donβt need a bunch of different sized needles for nalbinding or whatever. The size of the stitch is controlled either completely freehand or by pulling it against one of your fingers. Most people who have a lot of nalbinding needles seem to either have tried out wood, bone, and metal ones to see which kind they liked or they enjoy carving wood or bone and like making their own needles as an extra hobby.
Itβs also a lot easier to freehand and adjust as you go than crochet or knitting and you mostly go by inches instead of rows and number of stitches so a large number of accessories like stitch markers or whatever isnβt really necessary.
Maybe the lack of accessories also makes it unpopular idk. People do like collecting things in their nests.
I've been wanting to do so, I cannot find anyone who can teach me, and any books I can find on it are Ass in the Visual Learning department. Otherwise I'd be making the hell outta some nalbinded fabric
I found this channel by a nice man who makes up close tutorials
I create videos on YouTube to learn people how to needlebind using two fingers and your thumb. Needlebinding helps people to relax, relieve
I thought this would be kind of a niche post to make but I was quickly reminded that Iβm on tumblr, the website full of gay people with one billion hobbies.
