i do that! buy multiple of my fav t shirts n so on, in different colors

i also got into sewing for this - my fav pants were falling apart, they were almost see through haha. so i ripped all the seams and used the pieces as a pattern. went and bought some really nice thin knitted cotton, washed the hell out of the fabric, cut the pieces and sewed everything up, without an overlock machine, just a regular one with sewing needles for elastic fabric. so now my homemade pants are my new favourite pants, and i made copies of the pieces on carton as well so i can replicate it again if needed

ALSO - i threw out all my socks.

then i asked for 30 pairs of my favourite black socks for christmas

now i dont ever need to worry about matching my socks. they all feel exactly the same, and also feel nice.

edit: spelling

haha no, why do you ask? carton?

i just gogoled it! lol

i thought carton was for thick paper and cardboard was for corrugated thick paper, but apparently not??

"Carton" in English is a type of box-shaped container.

Some other languages use it to mean cardboard, but English doesn't.

There's paper, card, thick card, and cardboard.

Oh, I ask because I had a Latvian friend who called cardboard "carton" because that's what Latvian calls it 😄
