@lindsey-spoor it is so awesome you have your own yarn store! I hope things continue to run well!

Have you checked out the YouTube Music library? It's free and there is a bunch of good music there. Spend an hour downloading like 10 songs and then you have it sorted. The agencies don't pick music for you right? So they are just saving you the money….but then taking your ad revenue in return.

Tom and I will meet you at the bar and for dinner!
Will be in town Friday afternoon, staying at an air bnb nearby. Planning on the happy Greek for a later lunch/early dinner Friday, then the fashion show, etc. My cell number is 260-351-2260 if anyone wants to text or call and join us Friday.

@lea-ann-mcgregor I'll check her out. Thanks!

Congratulations @lindsey-spoor that is wonderful!

Thanks, everyone 😀 LOTS of work ahead, to be sure, but I'm really happy that I managed to meet my financial obligations!

I can't wait to see you again, Jill!

So, I messaged and asked if they would consider a sample pack of new colors for their retailers. They don't have a ton because they didn't bcc their list once. And the reply was, well I guess we can make up color fringes and send them with orders. {rant on} They really just don't know how excited a customer…[Read more]

I like reporting in here–I never know what to make of the sheets after I fill them out so let's see what happens.

Nothing every seems to go smoothly, but things went well. My Swatch Workshop went along as planned, I got my Grading Course up and sold it out. I was surprised that by doing some simple outreach I was able to coax about six…[Read more]

Thanks Jess! I'm going to do this. By Body of your patterns, do you mean on each pattern page, or in the download?

@lea-ann-mcgregor, I'll see you at TNNA! But on your question. I was actually thinking about this this morning as I wondered about bringing garments to wear in yarn that is no longer being sold or is not at TNNA. Here are my thoughts, and kind of how I think I went wrong–a lot.

1. I would scour TNNA for other yarn and then have deep…[Read more]

Hey, C.C., Did I tell you about sendingbestwishes.com? Get in touch with Amber and see if something will work out. Lea-Ann

Yay, @lindsey-spoor — I'm so excited for you!!!

Yep, that's the way to do it, @karen-george and @jill-wolcott! It's not a formal signup page embedded on Ravelry but it can be a link to sign up. I also strongly recommend putting that link somewhere on the body of all your patterns, and in the final thank-you email someone gets when they buy your pattern on Ravelry. 🙂

@karen-george I've found having regular hours really helpful. When people turn up to the house in the week, they don't expect me to down tools. Equally I know when I should be stopping. I definitely get more done this way.

I had a really good May in some respects…I am having a huge learning curve with regard to technology but am now able to say that I am really enjoying it! Newsletter, Ravelry and IG are my new best friends!

However, working on getting more product, in my case, pattern designs, took a back seat. I have learned that I pack too many goals into a…[Read more]

That's awesome @lindsey-spoor ! Congratulations!

Wow, that is great @lindsey-spoor. Congratulations!!
