I've been sewing for over 10 years, so making a sweater takes me just a little over an hour - can't go to the city and find a store to buy a nice one in that timeframe!
Two years ago I also bought an embroidery machine, because embroidering by hand on clothes just took a loooooong time every time (some of the things I made pictures of, which is certainly not everything I made with it!). I went to a store to try out several machines and I went for the Brother Innov-is V3 Limited Edition, because I can use large embroidery frames with that machine (I had saved up quite some money during the two years that I couldn't go on holiday because of covid :P). I noticed I'm using the 20x30 cm frame a lot! If you buy a sewing/embroidery combination machine, you can often only use the smaller frames (around 10x10 cm). And I really like embroidering skirts.

On the other hand, I can't knit XD
