The Get Knit Done podcast is a podcast for new and experienced knitters who want to get more from their knitting! The podcast will share knitting techniques and how-tos, host guests from around the knitting community and share knitting patterns and inspiration so that you can Get Knit Done!
Hello lovelies,
In this episode of the podcast I am talking about how we tend to elevate male knitters, designers and dyers over other knitters, designers and dyers and why we might want to rethink that.
Yep, I decided to finish the podcast with a slightly controversial episode but who doesn't want to go out with a bang.
And yes, it is the last episode of the podcast. You will be able to find me over in the Knit Matters Facebook Group and on the Knit School YouTube Channel.
Thank you so much for listening and, for the last time, go get knit done!

Ep 030: Should I turn my hobby into a business?
Hello lovelies,
In this week’s episode I’m talking about what to think about if you are thinking about turning your hobby into a business. Sometimes just because someone says you should, doesn’t mean you should! : )
Things to think about:
1. Why am I thinking about turning my hobby into a business? Is it because I have a burning desire to do so or because I feel obliged to?
2. Do I really want to run a business? Running a business and having a hobby are very separate things and it’s very easy to forget about the whole running a business bit.
3. What type of business do I actually want? And what do I want from it?
4. What part of my hobby do I really want to turn into a business?
In next week’s episode, I’m going to look at the idea that our hobbies, particularly knitting, can in some way fix us when we aren’t very well or is it just turning knitting into snake oil!
Now my dears, I’m away to finish outlining all of the workshops and demos for the Knit School Virtual Retreat so, as always, go get knit done!
