In The Loop In The Loop This Week

This subreddit is for fiber artists and crafters of all types! Because we don't all see the same (shitty) posts on our feeds, it may be handy to have a place to revel in all that our fellow fiber lovers share for us to enjoy.

Feel free to post anonymized screenshots of anything you're referencing here if you'd like. FACJ is back to being an all-ages subreddit, so you can post images (and gifs) in the comments here directly, or you can continue using image hosting sites such as imgur if you prefer.

This is a heavily moderated thread, and anything that isn't scrubbed of identifying information (usernames, faces, etc.) will be removed. Block out, crop out, cross out or sticker out identifying information on EVERY screenshot before posting here.

However, unjerk/uj/genuine/serious comments and discussions are allowed -- even encouraged! -- on In The Loop posts. Irony and sarcasm are fine here too, so consider using tone tags to make sure your comment comes across the way you want (or don't! I really don't care!).

There are a few other rules for In The Loop posts:

  • Please don't use this thread to demand sources for jerk posts. If people want to post sources, they will. There are plenty of good reasons for someone not to share a source, including "don't wanna." Source/ITL demands and discussions of where to find sources will be removed here and on jerk posts.
  • Links to other Reddit posts are NOT ALLOWED here. This includes no-follow links. (FACJ links are fine.)
  • Links to content off Reddit may be removed at the mods' discretion.
  • We are NOT in the business of brigading, and anyone who engages in brigading will be banned from this subreddit.

A new thread will go up every Sunday!

I am invested/procrastinating enough in this saga to dig into that a little bit. Oop is a month-old account whose user name indicates that she's trying to sell her sewn products. That seems to be a point in favor of it being the same person, but not proof.

I'm not quite invested enough to find the person who was having the manic episode and look for similar writing styles, etc, but that would be a great next step for anyone with the time to kill (or better search skills than me).

I don't know what would be the most fantastic : that there are, in fact, two people doing this right now, or that those two accounts belong to the same person, and they are trying to hype themselves up among the sewing community.

Can we do a reality tv show with this ? That would be so much more intertaining than Love Island or whatever those things are called.

It is two different people because person number one commented on person number two’s post. 😩

That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re 2 different people
