A few new things to check out

Hi there,

Today I have 3 things I want to share with you:


1) I got some happy mail. I don’t want to make you jealous BUT I couldn't keep this to myself. If you haven’t checked out Knit Pick's new yarn Twill, you have to give it a look. Twill is a beautiful and bouncy 100% merino 3-ply yarn. The structure provides a gorgeous stitch definition which is perfect for both garments and accessories, whether intricate cables or simple stockinette. Machine washable and soft enough for close to the skin, Twill is sure to be a fast favorite. There are so many great colors. It was so hard to choose but I seem to be in a yellow mood so got colorway, Gold Rush and making another Arisaema Shawl (bit.ly/Arisaema), a simple and quick to knit worsted weight shawl. So far I'm in love and can't recommend enough you getting a skein to try. Trust me, you won’t regret it!

Try it and let me know what you think, link here>>> bit.ly/twillyarn


2) A new episode of Real Talk with Tian is out. Episode 7 is about pricing. If you're a design, dyer, tech editor, or maker of any kind, you've wondered about how you're pricing your offer. This episode is intended to give you some framework to help you think about how YOU might want to price your offer because this is your business, your pattern, your whatever and YOU get set the price. And just remember, price is never perfect or even permanent. You can see what works, pivot, and make adjustments whenever you want. If this is a topic you're interested in, please give it a listen and consider sharing with 5 of your friends you think could use the information.

3) Finally, if you find value in the free work I put out, consider supporting by becoming a Patreon.


That's it for now. Talk to you soon.
