Knitting For Profit: 5 mistakes to avoid

by Hannah Gilly

May 28, 2019

Knitting for profit isn’t easy. 

There are a lot of steps to take to set yourself up as someone who knits and ask money at the end of the project. You have to stand confident in your talent and experience as a knitting.
You need to be a good enough knitter to knit all your pieces predictably, so the tension and style don’t change as you knit multiple items.

And there are other things that you need to get right too. A lot of them are all about how you meet and greet customers, how and where you decide to sell your knits once they’re finished and the effort you put into distinguishing yourself from other knitters who sell.

I’ll give you 5 mistakes to avoid in this video (and I popped a bonus 6th one in there too!)
