    I am binge watching your videos… maaan, the time you take to communicate and share with us is amazing. Thank you, I’m not a tufter… but dammit you make it seem to be very tempting … you make it to be so intriguing… again thank you so much!

    Thanks for your generosity in sharing how you turned a passion hobby into a business. I appreciate the care and quality of your art work. I’m retired - a lifelong knitter and love fibre and started tufting a while ago. I love it so much and have been toying with the idea of having a bit of extra income. I’m way older than you but us older people have lots to learn from young people such as yourself! Thanks and looking forward to watching more of your videos.

      I have had this comment screenshotted and saved on my phone for quite some time. I really appreciate the kind words, and I'm happy that you have found love in tufting.
      Likewise, us young people have a lot to learn from you as well, I hope we cross paths one day and we can geek out on knitting and fiber arts. Peace and love

    Awesome and super informative. Just wanted to say thank your. I looking to start next month with no experience what's so ever. Your video definitely cleared a lot of doubt.

    Also something that people should be aware of in all businesses is it’s very important to pay your taxes for all sales through venmo and all similar apps after 2022

    Ainda não consegui começar no hobby mas estou muito empolgado e a cada vídeo seu fico com mais vontade de iniciar. Vejo vídeos de vários artistas da área e os que eu mais me agradam são os seus, tanto pelo resultado que é excepcional quanto pelo processo em si que é extremamente cuidadoso e preciso(que é como eu desejo ser). Parabéns pelo vídeo espero em breve poder colocar em prática todas essas dicas! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷

    Hey dude! I am also originally from Wyoming and have relocated recently as well!
    I just got into tufting and most of my customers right now are my friends from back home.
    It has been helpful watching this video, since it came up on my feed. I guess you could consider me an organic follower. I'll definitely subscribe, and I'm looking forward to more videos in the future!
    I hope all is going well with your move!

    Just out of curiosity, do you have any worries about copyright? I'm thinking about starting but I'm afraid about copyright material such as logos, etc... any tips/comments about it? Thank you! Excellent video.

    Around how much roughly do you make a month tufting?

    • @dwrugs
      @dwrugs  Год назад +1

      It varies depending on how many commissions I get. I’m a student currently so it’s just some nice side money.

    Do your customers pay full amount when they hire you?

    • @dwrugs
      @dwrugs  11 месяцев назад

      I used to accept payment after, but because of some issues I now either do the payment in full upfront, or a deposit

    What wool is best for making rugs ?

    • @dwrugs
      @dwrugs  Год назад

      I haven’t had experience with a lot of wool yarn, but when I have used it I’ve gotten it locally made in San Diego. I typically use acrylic yarn from the big name craft stores
