I don’t think most knitters would be able to do anything with a bunch of wire, and it doesn’t seem like the dodecahedrons have the kind of wear that wire crafting would entail. I also don’t know that crafting wire into a necklace would necessarily translate to skill in knitting gloves, or even mean people would have the idea for it.
Is this really considered knitting and not metalworking?
There is no evidence of knitting in the Roman Empire, which if it was there is weird when you consider how much art they made that shows other parts of their daily lives and how many deities they had for every aspect of life.
The solid ones would also be completely useless for knitting gloves. And why are these typically found in hoards of money if they’re a part of domestic life? It just doesn’t fit the available evidence. I don’t think it’s a bad idea, but it doesn’t work to explain all of them.
Making decisions based on what Russia and China think and not the effects of those policies and harm to others is honestly baby brained. Not accusing you of that, but that’s definitely what the original comment I was referencing was doing. All people everywhere deserve to be free, including the Iranian people, but the terror campaign initiated by the US and Israel against Iran makes nobody safer and senselessly kills many.
They’re here on Lemmy, and they’re fucking nuts. I recently saw one say that opposition to the Iran war sounded like something Russia and China would be in favor of 😬
Yeah, uh… can I get some of that?
Reddit is doing age verification now?? lmao
Ask the people who think the dodecahedrons are for knitting, because that’s the only thing they’d be able to knit with it :p
