Have you swapped an extravagant/expensive hobby for something traditional and crafty?

[Higglepig]

Any Mumsnetters found the credit crunch has forced them to give up a fairly pricey hobby (like golfing, scuba diving, astronomy or koi carp collecting...) and take up something a bit more traditional like needlework or jam-making or cultivating your own vegetable patch? And if so, have you found it more rewarding? Or do you look back with great fondness on the time when you could luxury spa treatments/skiing trips etc?

Already have an expensive and extravagant hobby: knitting.

MF is right, don't say we didn't warn you.
And enjoy [bwink]

I do knitting and it is soooooo expensive - good wool is not cheap round here and I love nice wool
