I was crafting clothes at the sewing station with fabled hides. My storage was full, but I planned to move items to a basket once the crafting was fully underway. Unfortunately the newly created items did not stay with the bench as I was crafting new ones; they vanished, taking the crafting components with them. I wouldn't be bothered except I lost fabled hides.
The gear reappeared in my inventory about an hour later. Don’t know what happened, but I got my stuff
