Now that we have summer in this hemisphere a lot of beautiful Seaborn Tees pop up in my feed lately! #seabornTee Yay! 🙌 You might not know this, but Seaborn is a very special design to me as it is the only one of my designs that I sold enough copies of, to the cover the costs that I had making the pattern. I think most people would be surprised how much money designers like me need to spend to get a pattern released. Obviously we need to buy the yarn, but on top of that we need to pay for our own websites and pay fees on websites like Ravelry or Etsy. When we make a sale via Paypal then there is a fee too. Then of course we pay our talented tech editors who help us to make our patterns the best that they can be. Some of us sometimes work together with photographers to put our work into the best light. As you know how much yarn can cost, you can probably imagine that making a sweater pattern is not cheap at all. And that of course means that we only ever start to make a profit after we sold enough copies to cover our expenses - at least if we do not count our own working hours. From all my 28 self-published patterns that are available right now, the Seaborn Tee is the only one for which all expenses are covered! Of course that is super exciting for me! 🥳 So today I wanted to thank you for loving the Seaborn Tee as much as you do! It means everything to me! ❤ I think this is the perfect entry for this week's #favoriteFoFriday 🧶 Have a lovely weekend everyone! 🤗 #knitweardesignersofinstagram #myexperienceasaknitweardesigner #knitting #knitweardesigner #knitweardesigneratwork #troublesofknitweardesign #herbgardenknitwear #designing #designingtruth #designstruggles #designingknitwear #knitweardesignerlife #patternwriting #knitterforlife #knittersofınstagram #knitknitknit #knit #knitknit #knitstagram #summertop https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg4Qf4zI-9p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
