The thought of designing your own patterns seems unbelievable!
Where do I start? What measurements do I need? What goes into a writing a pattern? Will it fit? Where do I ask for help if I get stuck? What about marketing? Intimidated by tech?
Getting started in designing your own garments can feel overwhelming, or too many challenges to get going.
But what if you had a framework to take you step by step from initial ideas through to published patterns. From these pattern with ab it of marketing, you can make regular recurring income.
What if you had a friendly, supportive mentor you could ask questions from and get support along the way?
Wouldn't that be amazing?
“I'm a relatively new crochet designer so I am always a little anxious when I hand over my patterns to be tech edited but Lyndsey made me feel very at ease. She found some small errors but was so kind in how she communicated these and also made some really helpful comments which were very encouraging. I came away from the experience very confident that my pattern was thoroughly checked. I would definitely recommend using Lyndsey for crochet tech editing. Thank you Lyndsey!”
"Lyndsey was absolutely fantastic to work with. We worked on my first pattern, with Lyndsey making suggestions to make it easier to follow and reminding me about the important bits such as Copy Right info.
