Knitting skill question

I've used knitting with Sims with multiple traits but I was reading a few threads the other day that gave me more questions...

1: Knitting skill: Are you acquiring the skill slowly or quickly with your Sims?

2: What Sim Traits do your Sims have that is making them learn faster or slower?

3: Are you finding that lot traits are increasing learning speed with knitting?

  • 1: Knitting skill: Are you acquiring the skill slowly or quickly with your Sims? Very quickly.

    2: What Sim Traits do your Sims have that is making them learn faster or slower? My knitter sim has the creative trait, and I believe I saw a SimGuru mention that the creative trait does make sims gain knitting skill faster (but it still seems a little too fast imo).

    3: Are you finding that lot traits are increasing learning speed with knitting? Haven’t used any lot traits with knitting yet.

  • 1. Quick but see below.
    2. I have the creative starting trait, the creative visionary reward trait, the murphy bed which when putting the bed up my sim becomes inspired, and I finished the painting aspiration which gives the muser trait. So my sim is very inspired a lot.
    3. My sim lives in a medium tiny house, 64 tiles. Lot traits are the green plant one, (the garden does really great) and the paint brush one, (better painted pictures with more masterpieces).
    4. My sim's veterinarian skill goes up very fast also, due to the above reasons.

  • She didn't get the muser trait because I started her doing the Strangervill aspiration. She was going to be a temporary sim then I decided to make her my builder since EL broke my other builder sim. Her traits. She's level 8 on her veterinary skill and level 8 on her knitting skill. https://imgur.com/8gcUYbc.png
  • I’ve seen ppl say their sims learn it fast and supposedly get level 4 by the time they knit their 2nd item. I’ve knitted 3 items and my sim is still in level 2.
    What are y’all knitting to reach level 4 that fast? Does the type of item matter? I’ve knitted 2 hats and a pair of socks

    So my main sims have already leveled this. I did have a slow time completing the aspiration but eventually got it done.

    Mine build skills fast because they have the Savant Aspiration. You can purchase that one with points for 4000 I think. They tend to do better when inspired so I assume having the Creative trait might help? My lot traits have no impact on my knitting because they are "Good Schools," "Celebrity Home" and "Ocean View" or whatever its called.
  • Thanks for the info! I want my Sims to fumble and take time getting the skill, but I also want others to level up quickly. So this will help.
