Whatcha workin on?
One week to go on my book and so much to do…

What’s going well?
My weekend at Zitron was exhausting but very good. It was a yarn festival for LYSes, so there was a lot of Starship-like talk. I had a lot of good talks with people, some exiting new inspirations, got booked for a class in autumn, my classes were fun… When I w…[Read more]

What about sending the finished pattern pdf to the yarn company, have them do the printing and pay you for each kit they sell?

I'm about 2 1/2 hours from there but I am so swamped with trying to get my Christmas catalog put together I won't be able to make the trip this time. Hope you have a great trip!

I've gotten seriously stuck again too…
Trying to get out for a walk at least every couple days, working up to daily.

@christie-minchew love the weeding idea too! I'll try that tomorrow 🙂 (There was a maybe in there, but I took it out 🙂

Hugs to all <3

Welcome, @melissa1106989!

Hello!

Well I did it! I have just completed charting my stars! Huzzah! Some parts were hard, others were easy, some parts were downright fun – I thoroughly enjoyed screwing up the yuck stuff, throwing it on the fire and watching it burn 😉

The things I found hard were not going straight to the things to do rather than the overall plan. I…[Read more]

Hi Melissa! I like your jewelry–although totally not a boho person! You will love what you learn here and the people you meet. It is overwhelming at first, but keep coming back for what you need.

for everyone, this article kind of answers why exercise.

Hi Captains,

I'm glad to be here! 🙂 I joined last week and finally now am getting a chance to say hi. I found Tara around last fall from listening to someone else's podcast where she was the guest (I can't remember who it was) and resonating with her style so I checked out her other offerings. She has so much! So cool… I signed up for the…[Read more]

Gah. I replied to this, but apparently id didn't get up here!

I use sample knitters because it allows me to do other things and pursue other ideas. It has not made an appreciable difference in my income, but I do track expenses per project so I can see when it has benefitted things, and when not. It has made me a better pattern writer, and I…[Read more]

I use a sample knitter (my 16yo daughter Dami) and it hasn't really increased my income. However, it has given me more time to be able to design more patterns, so in that regard, it has increased my income. I don't have a written agreement since it's my daughter. We agreed on £0.10 per finished metre and that has worked for us. Hope you can…[Read more]

Thank you Tara 🙂

I'll be adding links to new patterns as they're ready. I put up a sneak peek at my next CAL and they seem to love it so that's good LOL

I know these are my folks – they're there because they like my stuff. What I think I'll do is schedule a post once a week where I'll add a link to something – a pattern, youtube, tutorial…[Read more]
