I'm curious what everyone uses as background noise while crocheting. I've found the only thing I like watching while crocheting is cartoons for some reason, like Bob's Burgers. I know some people watch movies, or listen to audio books but would love to hear some suggestions and get to know everyone.

Podcasts. Lately, a lot of Ear Biscuits.

My husband is one of those people who hates the quiet, and will always have something on TV even if he's not actually watching it. So generally my background noise becomes a series of random retro gaming YouTube videos whether I like it or not!
When he's out, I make the most of it by just sitting in blissful silence 😄

I do the same as my husband usually chooses random sitcom reruns or guitar equipment videos.

Audiobooks, music, a podcast (DNA ID). It depends on my mood and what I'm doing. If I need to concentrate a lot, music. Otherwise, one of the other two.

If it's something simple, like doing 20+ rows of only sc, I'll put on some D&D videos I haven't seen before. But it has to be something I can't possibly mess up. If I need to pay attention, sometimes it can't even be music. Lately, I'm working on a raven shawl and I've gotten the repetitive shape of the feathers down enough that I binged the entirety of The Good Place.

I like to put on a long 8-hour rain sounds video and also make a nice cup of tea if I'm feeling cozy. Otherwise, I'll generally put on a video game stream that I don't need to pay a ton of attention to.

I like to watch cartoons (Bob's Burgers is a favorite), horror movies, or wrestling

i indulge in 2-3 hobbies at any given moment, cycling thru all over the span of a year. Right now its crochet, fishing and kayaking, a few months ago it was skateboarding and 3d modelling. Nowadays i put on a relaxing kayak fishing video while i crochet, or an educational video about some new lure or jig i wanna learn more about

If it's a pattern with lots of repeats and easy to follow, I'll put on some urbex videos or a movie I've seen lots of times. This way, I still have background noise and extra visual stimuli while being able to focus on my project. Otherwise, I listen to what video game or movie/youtube my husband is playing
