So Knitting is dead.

Tried every trick in the book and nobody wants to knit. I thought maybe the previous household had a issue after the patch but the new household of 4 hasn't even attempted it. Yes it's only knitting but those floating blobs like the stuff my Sims knitted.

I have no problem with knitting in my game and I use it for the same reasons you do.
Itchy Socks for Unassuming Candy Jars. I’ve been trying to imagine a pair of socks on these Slimers, but I failed.
Do you use mods at all? If so, Try to take them out first and test knitting on a haunted lot in a new save to see if the problem persists.
Are you trying to have sims nit together while at a club gathering?
They probably tuned it down because people were complaining about it on Twitter. Saying that’s all their sims would do etc.
I miss the autonomous knitting. It brought some funny moments in my game.

I’ve had to use mods to adjust the autonomy of certain things because they just happen way too often for my liking. It’s not even because they want to do it consistently sometimes, it’s the fact they stop doing what I want them to do to go shovel snow outside, for example. It’s weird.
But the chairs used for Sabacc weren't CC, and I haven't had any issues with any of my other Maxis chairs. I did notice that if I put a small computer desk under a loft bed, the sim had to sit first before using the computer.
But I've had no trouble with knitting itself. Come to think of it, I believe they might have to sit down before the knit option comes up. ??
This would be so much better than using mods. They give you the option to turn autonomy off but this would be a much better idea.

But in new saves they do not do it themselves anymore, I have no idea if the age of the save has anything to do with it.

Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
It's really annoying when they tune stuff so much it virtually disappears. I don't get dust in my houses anymore either as I play rotationally, so that was a waste of my money.
As for autonomy I just wish we had more options like Full/High/Medium/Low/Emergency Only/Off.
This is what I've been seeing since a couple patches ago. If I direct the sim to knit while they are standing (either by clicking on the knitting bag in their inventory or by clicking on the chair I want them to use), they often cancel the action while doing the "can't route there" hand wave thing. If they are already sitting down when I tell them to knit, they will knit just fine, even if it's the same chair. This has continued even after that latest patch. They will definitely knit if they are already sitting down when I tell them to do it.
Prior to the most recent patch my sims with the "creative" trait knit autonomously fairly frequently, but others without that trait didn't seem to do that so much (though they would occasionally). Which made sense to me. If they queued the action up autonomously, they didn't seem to have the routing problem (even with the same chair).
Since the patch I've only seen one sim queue up the action autonomously, and then he immediately canceled it. It wasn't clear why it canceled.
So I feel like there is possibly something glitchy going on rather than an intentional change.
I've noticed this regarding Sabacc.
