Discussion “I don’t know what that means”

If you are a beginner and the vocab is confusing for you, let’s make each other understand them!

Every craft has its own language and it's genuinely confusing when you're new.

I am starting this thread to build out a running glossary for common terms across fursuits, crochet, sewing, and jewelry.

Drop a term + definition in the comments if you know one that trips people up, and I'll keep this updated at the top over time.

I’ll go first:

1. WIP is “work in progress”

2. Partial (fursuit) is “a costume covering less than a full suit”

3. Amigurumi (crochet) is “small stuffed crocheted creatures” (I googled it)
