Ep 23: Before you become a crochet designer full time, here's what you definitely want to know
Manage episode 461404058 series 3579628
The next episode of The Mind of the Crochet Designer is now out and this week I'm talking about my journey from part-time to full-time crochet designer!
I want to point to some truths that a lot of other designers are not talking about.
In this episode I cover why it's not always a good idea to 'turn your passion into profits'.
And of course I wouldn't be me, if I would not also give you my best advice around what you definitely want to do when you are thinking of designing full time.
Because I want nothing more for you than you to be able to follow your dream.
Click the link below and join me with a cup of something cosy and your current WIP.
PS: I love to connect! So after the episode, let me know your thoughts on this by sending me an email or leaving a review.
