@karen-whooley Fabulous! Thanks so much! And we'll definitely keep you in mind if we decide to add crochet to a future retreat.

@amy-crook Thanks for your constant support sweetie!

It is an hour before noon and I prepared six pattern for translation – the last ones from my book. I had been procrastinating on this for weeks until my translator suggested that maybe I just need a holiday like regularly employed people do. And she was so right. Last week, I was in Nijmegen and then I slept for two days. It worked.
Now, I just…[Read more]

So I actually haven't responded at all and she seems to have stopped emailing me.

And I think I'll leave it at that.

It feels like an attack to me, like you said, Tara, and it was taking up so much of my mental capacity. I was originally thinking about sending an email that basically says something polite like Amy said, answer pertinent…[Read more]

I sell digital products, too.

I have a clearly stated no refund policy, but I also have a “learning guarantee” which basically says you will learn what I say you'll learn or I'll help you until you do.

I teach jewelry making, so I have eCourses and eWorkshops and then I also sell patterns and eBooks, so it seems relatively straight forward to…[Read more]

So sorry to hear about your loss, @kimberley-bridgwater 🙁

I made the deadline to submit the completed pattern, chart, etc. to Knit Picks.

My shawl will be published in the fall. This is the first pattern that will be published other than my Ravelry store (ok, I've only submitted 3 or 4 patterns to 3rd parties). I was so nervous that I kept delaying sending them the completed pattern even though it…[Read more]

Wow – this is timely. I need to think about this as well.

Thanks @jill-wolcott! See why I put them off and then they take forever to write up? If I can get into a routine of doing any photoshoots needed earlier in the week (or the previous week, when all the email contains is a shop update), I think things will start going a lot smoother. The feedback form linked in this one (which I meant to do as my…[Read more]

@mary-roth. Impressive newsletter! Congratulations.

I had an idea of writing a list of 50 topics like the 50 tasks, then just drawing and writing about whatever I draw. I have a huge sinus headache, so definitely something for another day.

Karen,
I keep pen and note paper in the bathroom so I can write stuff down if I can't sleep. Mitch uses it sometimes too.

YAY @jill-wolcott! I'm so glad I'm not the only one that scrawls stuff in the middle of the night…

This is kind of a funny one. I have had a pile of notes that I scrawl during the night, during the day, when I'm knitting, etc. They are often the remaining thing in a longer list. I have transferred them all onto real paper and thrown them away. Someday I will do the same with passwords.

Woo! I have scheduled a tweet for my knitty followers on Monday. <3

@jill-wolcottolcott @karen-robinson

Thank you for the feedback. I think I will write a post announcing that I am putting my blog on hiatus due to time constraints and to focus on my newsletter. Once I have a few newsletters under my belt, and have found my rhythm with them, I will do as Karen does and post excerpts from my Newsletter to my blog…[Read more]

I am so glad to support! And @c-c-almon If you would ever like to have a crochet instructor come out… 😉
