First Becoming the Knitter/Designer You Want to Be
$10.00
Description
First Becoming the Knitter/Designer Chat Is an introduction and I will be giving you some food for thought. This will be approximately 1 hour and I will give some material to get the conversation rolling. I will provide documents as needed.
First Becoming Chat
You can come via video (I’ll have lipstick on!) or just come to chat (no video). Sign up to get the log-in information. Use any device or computer. Come with answers to the questions on the first tab. We’ll see where we go from there. I want to get beyond “I love to knit” or “I love to design” and get to “what do I want from knitting/design”.
The invitation to the GoToMeeting login is the pdf you will get the link to after purchasing this.
Future Becoming Chats are every other week and cost $10 to join in. You can get a package for a bit of a discount. Also on Payhip if you are outside of North America.
Why Becoming Chat?
I love talking about knitting, and yarn, and what knitting brings to our lives. For me knitting is a metaphor for life, but we aren’t always paying attention to it that way. However you want your knitting to reflect your life, let’s do it!
It is a challenge to be creative person, or to feel passionately about something that non-knitters see as just a hobby. Whether you are a passionate knitter or a designer you are seeking a way to make knitting a fulfilling part of your life. I want to help you figure out a path toward that. Being creative and pursuing your passion is 1) not a straight path, 2) not as easy as it may look, and 3) really hard to remain focused on.
Topics for 2021 TBA!
Those are my thoughts. While I may think I know, I really want to know what you think and want. I’ve been on my path, well this knitting specific path, since 1993. I’ve learned a thing or two along the way.
Outside North America?
I am using PayHip because they do VAT! You can sign up there and get exactly what I have here in terms of downloads and information. So click over to there. I will likely figure out how to put the button here, but until then just use the link.
I also will be starting a one-on-one consulting service, Jill Wolcott Knits Studio Sessions. You can set time with me to help you solve issues, professional, specifically knitting, design related, or other life-related advice. The first 15 minutes are free, then you sign up for additional blocks of time at $12.50/15 min. I will also do small groups (you put the group together) and will give you a quote on cost.
