Good example being meat pies unlocking before you have the skill to make pie dough. There's a couple others relating to planks early game, but I forget what they are exactly. Rope seems to unlock a little too early too, it would make more sense to have rope unlock with either weaving or seamanship. Weaving wouldn't limit rope because pulleys/levers is a fairly highish skill to get.

i know what ya mean...i did not think of it much prewipe,

like with rope,, i was able to take someone elses loom and use that without being able to make one

hahaha

I'm ok with rope being unlocked before pulleys and leavers because you can still create the input ingredients (hay). With Meat Pies, it's literally impossible for you to make them, even if all the buildings are available, because you don't know how to make pie dough. That's one of the obvious ones that needs changing.

Will fix the pies and the rope.

Not the rope!

Maybe someone else in the village conveniently left the baking tables filled with pie doughs?

I thought that was intentional - that way new player joining the village can be useful in shorter amount of time. And hermits not so much affected because they anyway should get all skills

Torch is the most obvious to me - you need a sharpened stick (two actually) to make a torch but can't do that without whittling. Either make torch to use branches or move it to whittling.

I hardly doubt that you need the how-to-construct a loom knowledge to be able to craft a rope if you do know how to do it.
In real life theres a lot of items, tools which we use daily, but we do not know how to construct them.
Hopefully this is clear enough

Are you not able to make all of those things when you have all the right skills? Please do not cater to make things easier. It should take time and effort. The easier you make it to get to the end, the faster people will stop playing. Just my 2cents.
