More domestic skills?

I was just thinking about the skills in TS4 and was sort of lamenting about the lack of domestic skills. Yes, there's cooking and handiness, gardening, parenting, etc. I knit and crochet in real life, and I download some knitting CC to decorate, but there's nothing functional yet. So I was just wondering, how feasible do you think it is to have skills like knitting, sewing, etc. I think it would really add another dimension to the game. I also think it would really add to those who like to do rustic/farm stories with their sims.

What do you guys think?

    Clothing, curtains, table cloths, oven pads. toddler clothing to, soft toys like small bears ect ect
  • Even though I don't do any kind of crafting, I would love to have all the above mentioned activities in the game. We need more hobbies!
  • It would be really cool if we had a Fashion pack, where we could become models, clothing designers or fashion consultants. Maybe in a Fame pack, but sims 4 EPs dont have that much of a content. Or they add celebrities in general, or fashion related stuff.

    Apparently there's already a sewing machine in The Sims Mobile.

    Although it's a part of a career, this means they already have a mesh to use! And animation?

    I hope they bring it over to the real Sims game sometime.


    They are never going to use the mesh from Mobile. They never used any meshes from sims 2 and 3 in 4, and it enrages me. Imagine how much objects we could have in the packs, for the same price?! I am sure converting objects and clothes are cheaper than creating everything from scratch. I mean, i love new objects, but... nostalgia is something good too! Come'on

    Oh, i miss how the kids could sleep with the bear and they would wake up with a good comfy moodlet. I wish they added that in SIms 4, but now with actual animations of them sleeping with the bears (in sims 3 they were just in their inventory).
    Talking about small bears. Why everything in Sims 4 is so big? I mean... I know in real life we have big stuffed animals, but its not only them, there is a bunch of other things that are excessively big. hahaha

    I love the sims 4 but i dont love the babies that was one of my favourite parts of the game in sims 3 and now you cant even see if you baby is upset or s hungry or need attention it just like having a pet you cant select it to see whats wrong you have to just keep trying stuff till it works and there stuck constantly in the bassinet and its lame

    wouldn't it be amazing if the sims team made an expansion or game pack for babies with different activities to do with your little one
    like scans for your pregnant sim, check ups at your doctor or call out from the midwife to check on the babies if that was easier to make happen, prams so you could take your babies with you, the option to take them out of their bassinets and put them were ever like you could in sims 3, some new items like clothes for your baby and furniture like cribs and prams change tables baby rockers also a new interactive career like daycare with babies involved too


    I dont think they can add anything related to hospitals anymore. But the other things are really cute also! I hope that they add them!
