Pattern Launch Plan book is here and available in Print and Kindle at Amazon.com.
I wrote this book to help knit + crochet designers like you to develop the confidence to take control of your work and make money doing what you love.
Because this mission is so big and so important, I am asking for your help to get this book into the hands of every knit and crochet designer that has the desire to make a difference but feels like a fraud and struggle with sharing their designs.
Get the book. I recommend getting the print copy so you can flip through it, make notes in the margins, and complete the worksheets.
I need your help to get this into the hands of knit and crochet designer. I am doing a #yarngiveaway

I love knit picks hawthorne! This book would help me to get my patterns from my needles and scrap paper to others.
ReplyDeleteI left an Amazon review for your book. I hope you help lots of new designers.
ReplyDeleteThank you Trina. I really appreciate it!
DeleteI started writing patterns off and on a couple years ago, but life intervened. Every time I think about going back to it, I see the flood of patterns out there and wonder how to get noticed. Sounds like this is just what I need.
ReplyDeleteThank you Andrea for your comment! You're correct, there is a flood of patterns out there and it's hard to see how to get noticed in this saturated space. But it is possible to stand out and it starts with being uniquely you and blending in who you are with your marketing.
DeleteDefinitely check out the Pattern Launch Plan book. I think it will help you gain some traction with your designing.
Thanks again

I'm considering writing patterns for some of the stuff I've made on the fly, if I were to get organized and get them on paper, I think this would be a great resource for the next step(s)!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rachel. Definitely take that step to get some of your ideas on paper. I think you'll enjoy the experience and knitters will love the design(s)
DeleteI would love to have some Knit Picks yarn!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't the yarn just look AMAZING???

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I have a checklist I use to launch but there may have been steps I missed
ReplyDeleteThank you Carmen. A checklist is a great start. Having a strategic plan will more you even farther along because you will be able to check off what you need to do but most importantly, you'll be able to measure the success of each tactic.
