How my business grew:
In 2011, I left my environmental career to turn my passion into my business. I haven't looked back since!
I began by designing quick and easy projects for UK magazines, and I was delighted to be paid regularly for my skills.
I soon added teaching into the mix, and before long I branched out into technical editing and working with designers and book publishers to make their knit and crochet patterns and craft books the best they can be.
I have had the pleasure of working with the best companies and designers in the industry, and have now authored 8 best-selling books, which is a dream come true.
The icing on the cake was my knitting editor role at Woman’s Weekly Magazine, which is probably the best-known lifestyle magazine in the UK. It was an honour to be part of the fabulous editorial team for 3 years.
Alongside all of this, I also sell digital products online, along with memberships and courses for knitting and crochet business owners, to help them build a profitable business.
​
Now I’m on a mission to use all of my skills and knowledge gained from working in the heart of the industry, to help others unravel the complexities of running a successful knitting or crochet business and find their niche in this vibrant and growing industry.
​
I can't wait to help you too.
