Knitting friends! Since makers tend to make more than one sort of thing, and we crafters need to stick together, here's a list of fellow creative communities for your navigation pleasure.
For each craft I'll include the current most active community first as well as alternatives, and add each with their full URL as well as local links for Lemmy and Kbin users respectively.
I hope it's useful!

Craft on, people. Craft on ๐
Oh lordy, there's a dice community. Perhaps making dice would be cheaper than buying them? HHAHAH! That's what I say about knitting =P
I am sadly in a position to confirm that while it is cheaper in the long run than buying proper fancy handmade dice, it's also a RIDICULOUS amount of work ๐ฌ
Haha, exactly like knitting! A billion years ago, I saw this really cool shrug/scarf/shawl type thing. It was on clearance for $5. Tell my husband, I can totally make that! 5 years later, it's done at a cost of about $15 =P
