So, as my friends and family all know, I am anti-resolution. No one keeps them. What is the point in making them? Instead, I am working on my lifestyle. Currently, I sit around way too much. Granted I am knitting on projects for work, classes, or pattern design, but I end up out of breath walking around the mall or downtown. I need to make it a point to walk more. Running is out of the question since I have bad knees and shin splints. So this is me attempting to be healthier. Eat better and walk more.
Then there is working on my career and obviously income. I work part time at a yarn shop. While it is the most exciting job I have ever had, income-wise, I need to do more. I am working on pattern designs a lot lately. I would really like to get my name out there and get those patterns moving. I have several on Ravelry up for sale or free to download, and more are always on the way. I am deciding what the best way to market myself is, and that is where I am not sure how to continue. I would love to get one of my patterns into something like Interweave Knits or Vogue Knitting. So here is my hope, that by the end of the year I have a steady income off of my patterns.
Hi
ReplyDeleteI dont make resolutions, just small goals during the year. Otherwise it feels like to much pressure!
Very envious that you work in a LYS!!
