Happy September everyone! It's hard to believe that summer is almost over. For us in the knitwear industry, though, autumn is the best time of the year. The temperatures outside start to cool, and knitters start itching to cast on for warm woolies (yes, there are apparently knitters who don't knit in the summer).
This is also the time of year when I get flooded with beautiful new designs in need of tech editing, so I'm thinking this month's newsletter topic will be particularly timely.
When I'm trying to come up with interesting topics for my designer newsletter, I always go through a couple of questions in my head. Is there something specific I've helped someone with recently that they seemed to really find useful? What are the common mistakes I see over and over again? What do my clients seem to be struggling with? Well, this month I'm going to address something I struggle with as a designer: coming up with "good" names for my patterns. Read on for some tips and tricks for finding unique, memorable pattern names.
And as always, I've included my tech editing availability for the coming month. Over half of my September spots are already booked up, so get in touch soon if you've got a pattern nearly ready for editing!
