A few weeks ago, I was inspired to create a Crochet Design Series featuring several designers ranging from experienced to novice. I must admit that this inspiration came from wanting to learn more about designing.
By this point in time, I already had 4 designs under my belt. Two designs I published independently, and two are contribution patterns to Cre8tion Crochet. You might wonder why did I want to learn more about designing if I already published 4 designs. Well, to be honest, the first two independent designs were me just playing around. The latter two, well, I was a bit more serious about designing thus the inspiration for learning more about designing.
Well, who better to learn about designing than from designers themselves. They’ve been there before and have tried and true methods that work for them. I decided to interview a few designers and ask them some questions about designing. I was very lucky that the ones I asked agreed to share their knowledge.
This Crochet Design Series has been a 5 part series. I really enjoyed reading each of the designers’ responses to each question.
Below you can find links to all the parts of the series. Enjoy!
Much Love and Happy Hooking!
