I've had my crochet business for nearly a decade and when I tell you lil sis is sharing FACTS!!!! Yall, people pay so much for advice like this. I hope you're all listening. 💖
HAHAHAH yes!! Thank you !!! 🤍🤍
If Toni says she the truth let me grab my notebook...I don't even crochet lol.
🤣😭that is hilarious @@beyondswatches4665
Do you make your own patterns? Of can you use ones that you find online and credit the creator?
How educational and cute🥰
The hardest part for me is promoting, I'm very low profile and shy so putting myself out there is soooo hard ( and I also hate short form content like reels and TikTok)
I am exactly the same way!
just do your thing,if you keep persisting you will eventually get customers dont give up. Marketing just makes it easier to attract customers
@Chips2-yasQueen samee I'm always late to trends
What’s your TikTok handle I’ll follow !! Cuz me too girl
@@ChloesAcreations it's @baby.bear.croche in all the socials! What's yours? I'll follow you too
"Ask ur mom...ur mom will TELL U" SO TRUE
I honestly really needed this video and I think it was a sign that it popped up in my recommended :) I’ve been wanting to start up a business of my own and I’ve had so many family members and friends telling me I need to, but I was always so hesitant because I was afraid it just wouldn’t do well and it would be a waste of time. But you’ve literally encouraged me to do this and I’m fr gonna start 🙌🏽 Thank you so much for the advice, you’re helping so many of us 🫶🏽
you got this!
Hi Giselle.. I'm new to crocheting. I want to start a business too. Can you please help me out with some information about wool? Like for me as a starter I want to make grannie square bedcovers/table covers etc so what kind of wool do you suggest? I mean 2ply or 4 ply would be good option for making a bed coverup and table or sofa runners??
UPDATE US GIRLLLL!!!!!
@@pamelachakraborty2152 same here and can someone suggest me a place to order yarn for more cheap price cuz its kinda expensive in my country
Came to scoop the people who dropped their handles/socials! Would love to see an update too!
I’m a sophomore in highschool and I’ve been wanting to sell things and this video just gave me the confidence to ask my parents to let me start selling or at least setting up an Etsy account so thank you for all the advice, the fact that you started doing it at my age makes me feel a lot better
I'm in about the same boat as you, I hope it goes well for you :)
Have you started yet? If so, how's it going?
A very smart, and inspiring young lady. Love your video. I am a grandmother and have been crocheting for years but never really thought about selling it. I am just amazed at so many young people that are doing this. My daughter is helping me learn social media and I think I may just throw my hat in the ring and give it a shot. I have a lot more time now that I am retired. Keep shining girl you are doing GREAT!!
I'm a mom, been crocheting for about 25 years. I am so happy that young people are just exploding with passion for this very old hobby! I hope you start sharing some of your work sometime 😊
This is coming right on time for me! Thank you!
Literally same!
yessss same!
i'm a high school teacher crocheting on my couch, just in awe of how great the youngens are. I would have never thought to start my own business in high school. you're paving your own path by choosing to work for yourself at such a fresh age. you're inspiring, madame!!
I've been getting hung up on the details and haven't pulled the trigger on getting my shop up and this helped SO MUCH. You're so funny lol thanks for the video and real talk tips
Yeah this was really helpful,
69 likes is insane 💀
I am not financially able to start a business right now but in the meantime I’ve always wanted to start a new channel for crafts. I’m currently bulking videos for some leeway since I work and go to school full time!
I’m subscribed and am looking forward to your crafts!
This is the video i needed to get me to commit go my business, we can do it yall dont be scared
PERIODDD!!!!
I watched this video when it first came out and I didn't really have any drive to start a business but now I really want to and this is the PERFECT advise!!!!!! I know what to do now al I have to do is put in the work and trust the process!!!!
I ditto so many of the comments. I have been crocheting for 40 years. All 7 of my kids are grown and the grandkids are multiplying. So I spent the last year falling in love with yarn again. I discovered RUclips and have increased my knowledge and found what I enjoy making the most. I have sold a few things but not actually put anything out there. Among other things I learned there is more than one way to single crochet. I am ready to start putting my work out there. BUT I am terrified of social media. I haven't even been on anything except Messenger. But you inspired me so I am going to download the apps and look at it as a business opportunity. It might take me a minute to figure it out but I raised 7 children and we all made it out in the right number of pieces so I can handle learning how to navigate tiktok. Right?
i really needed to see this, i've been telling myself to start my crochet business this year but i have my own doubts about being successful.. i love checking out other crocheters pages! but i definitely am gonna push myself to just do it and get started, thanks girl.
You got this
5:53 "I dont know👹" why did that made me laugh so much😂
I really needed this video since I have reached that point where frustration and demoralisation start to kick in, so thank you so much for the motivational talk!!
Omg I’ve been pushing away the actual part of starting a crochet business because I’m worried nothing will sell. I could have done something with all the time that’s passed😅 Thanks so much for the encouragement💜
Just put it out there! I put up 2 patterns on Etsy and haven’t sold a thing lol! But it was such an accomplishment just to put it out and now it’s only up from here 😊
@@traceyevans6242 thanks so much😊
THANKSSS I was just waiting for a video like this to start selling my small projects 😭btw girl ur so pretty🫶🏻
Art therapist and parent as well as Fiber artist and I sent this to my kids to help them with their business ideas ❤
Ty and continue being amazing!!!
I’ll be praying for you and your kids and your patients, in Jesus’ name amen!!
This was the BEST advice video I’ve seen so far on how to start a crochet business. Thank you for talking about multiple topics in one video. I’ll come back to this video for future reference🫶💞
This is the most thorough "how to" on this subject that I've seen! Thank you so much! I've been sitting on starting up for way too long and I have project ideas that I haven't seen anywhere. You've got me pumped and inspo'd!!! Much love and success 💜
Could you do a video on how you ship your items? Like a vlog style one? Specifically how you ship your flower bouquets.
Hi she posed a video thats called crochet work week and she shows how she packages order but she didn't show flowers. I would assume that she uses boxes though❤
I’ve had my Etsy for a couple of months and I haven’t had any sales there yet. All of my sales come from family/friends so far. Thank you for this!! I’m trying to growing this year
I hope you get there!
You should have your family and friends make the future purchases through etsy maybe in the future? Depending on how much commission they’re taking right now, having some confirmed sales on your page really could help other people make the decision to purchase and be like advertising!
this why you pretty, skin clear, and ya body tea. bc you’re an angel clearly
I love you
Girl, your such a mood. Like girl boss right here!!! I’m doing my research on what to do for a new small business and this is by far the most helpful video out there. You go girl. Your so entertaining and motivating and now i have way more written down in my little notes then i did before. Your doing good things and i just wanted to congratulate you for doing things like this. New sub. New fan. New motivation. Girl I’m here for it!!!!! Get it queen
You 🤝 my crochet journey
Not interested in a crotchet business but this is helpful for the greeting card and journaling business I am growing. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
I'm extremely shy and really worried about how well I'd do but thank you for this video
Thank you beautiful I started crochet Feb 2023. Had my first fashion show September 2023. Preparing for my 2nd Show This coming February. I was only doing it for fun hiding my work thinking it wasn’t good enough until other people started seeing my work and placing orders. Thank you for all the great tips I’ve been advised to create and Etsy account and to attend farmers market and pop up shops. I’m going to take your advice and stay focused 🌹🌹🌹
Crocheting is my passion and my family always telling me to sell my stuff to make my own income but was afraid my stuff wouldnt sell. Now there your video pops up as I'm browsing youtube looking for something interesting to watch. I'm going for it today coz don't think its a coincidence you came my way. You are simply amazing.
Hey girl. Thanks so much for this video. I am 47 and I appreciate your advice so much. I am new in this business, its a hobby for me but I love it. Thank you so much. 💓 you are awesome ❤ ,keep it up.
Thank you for this video. I'm 64, been crocheting since I was 11y/o. I just want to supplement retirement soon. The marketing is the difficult part. Good thing this is recorded. I hear really slow. Lol. 😂 Thank you for sharing.❤
Can you make a video on like your process on taking photos for your listings. I hope this is not asking for too much but it doesn’t have to be like a full video or anything maybe like a short or something because I SUCK at taking aesthetic photos.
OMG this is literally what I needed my friend and I are putting up our shop TOMORROW and I’m going to use all of this to get it out there!!!❤❤
this is literally my dream this year i put like 5 pictures abt this on the vision board! you’re sharing valuable info, thank you 🤍
like this is the Energy i needed
I wish I had your drive when I was your age. I'm 46 now and still struggling with it. Love your content.
Thank you!
Great video! This litterally gives me the push I need 2 keep going when I feel like I can't. Much appreciated. Keep going💜
I am so glad that your video popped up on my feed this evening. I really needed to hear all of this today! Thank you so very much!
Glad it was helpful!
i love your vibe so much this is srsly so helpful !! ive been sooo unmotivated lately but after watching this, HECK YEAH I CAN DO THIS LESGOOO
can’t wait for this i just did a pop up shop and i have another coming up i plan on selling all things handmade i cant wait!
Pro tip from a fellow biz owner .. not in crochet though. :) You can write off what Esty takes out of your check as a biz expense on your taxes.
Do you have to get an llc or permits to sell?
You have literally inspired me to push myself to get it started. It’s gonna be under AerroKnots and I’m gonna be getting that all done today.
One of the MOST HELPFUL and reassuring videos I've watched ❤
Thank you so much for this because sometimes it feels like I'm doing something wrong
I am learning crochet and I am so insecure about my stuff, even tho I do it and it looks good for a beginner and I have be trying SO MUCH, even people around me asked if I do it for a long time and I be like "no, I started in the first week of 2024", and I see choked, like, CRAZY SHOCK faces. I can do so much (I made a bag, 3 types of card holders, 3 actual useful leaf holder, the last one is the prettiest! And A cute decoration for my charger), but PRACTICE is the key, so I am not giving up. And in my country we don't have cutesy things in crochet, so what I am doing in isn't really popular or common, but I am loving so much and I have so much in mind to do. I have been looking for this video, so THANK YOU SO MUCH. I will put out my progress in here! 2024 is my year :)))
AHHH I LOVE THAT FOR YOU 2024 is your year girl, keep. going.
@@KamrynCain THANK YOU SO MUCH, GIRL! 💗💗💗💗😼
Empowerment!!!!
You exemplify the strength I needed to get statred. Everything you speak on is so true. Thank you for sharing. You have a humble soul. Stay blessed. I subscribed and can't see more of you and your tips❤
This is the gentle yelling I needed in my life ;-;
I will not lie, I think I have been hiding under the excuse of my illness and not completely giving into my crochet business, but listening to you talk and explain everything so nicely was such a nice change. I'm going to go and follow you secretly and cry tears of comfort and relief now, thanks 🩷
I love this for you!! 💗💗 you got this
I am currently a sophomore high schooler and made a tik tok and Instagram for selling crochet tote bags and I have been thinking about quitting my small business which isn’t growing at all but thanks to your video I have the energy again
I’ve been dreaming to start a business for so long, this video laid everything out so clearly and beautifully I cannot make anymore excuses!!😂😂 This was beyond motivating and informative, you are such a beautiful soul and I just want to truly thank you for giving me the inspiration I needed :)

Love your aesthetic and that you crotchet too!! I’m also a young crotcher and I’ve been thinking of doing this, but scared it’ll flop lolll. Thanks for the advice-genuinely so helpful.

How did you know i needed advice 😭😭...i love you ❤
I really needed this video , I thank God for sending you as an angel to give us the tips of starting a crochet business, I will try your tips
Amazing advice!! I have youtube, IG, and etsy but have been extremely intimidated by tiktok. You’ve given me the encouragement I needed to try it out 😅 Thank you for the advice! I’ve been selling jewelry and commissioned paintings for awhile but have found a lot of joy in crochet and would like to move more towards that and other crafts. Hoping I can figure it out and grow this year 🌸
GIRL why last night I was stressing about being successful and this morning i woke up to this video on my recommended! Ily!!!!!❤ thank you!!!
You got this!
Totally enjoyed this video. Thanks for the pump up at the end ❤ I believe it. “I’m gonna figure it out. I’m gonna do it too.” 🎉
is it stealing to make crochet roses like other people ?
No dear,thats called inspiration!! They prob stole it from someone else.😂
girrlllll... I'm liking you already ✨
OMG!!! I’m so excited I found your channel. I’m definitely inspired!! I love the advise and tips. I’m nervous bout taking this jump but I strongly desire to have my own craft shop/business. You have been so encouraging and love the delivery. Sounds a little overwhelming but like you said this is “2024 my year” if I want change I gotta make that step. Thank you💗
Ohmg you’re makeup looks so good
AUH THANKS MUZNAH
Girl I started this video in the spring and I’m finally coming back to finish I’m gonna stop bsing frl this time 😭
Omg how did you know to pop up on my recommendations you're a life saver ❤
Off topic but ur so pretty omg😭
That's what I call a good RUclips video

Thank you !!
I am crying right now! Thank you so much for the tips, for this amazing video! I am so happy, thank you so much again! Luv u! ❤️
Tysm for all the info!! I have a whole set plan for future stuff when I hopefully gain a bigger audience and budget but as of rn I sell on both etsy and depop! My photos aren’t too good but I do with what I have and although I haven’t gotten a sale yet, you saying you didn’t get your first sale within the first few months encourages me to keep pushing💗💗
Don’t ever give up!!
What’s your Etsy?
I needed this, thank you so much ❤
I really needed this bc I struggle with posting consistently! And I’ve honestly never even thought about creating a Linktree🤣 Thank you so much!!
Glad it was helpful!
I absolutely love this video I'm 23 and starting crochet and this was so helpful and inspiring especially thinking nobody even crochets anymore well I was wrong 😂🎉 love it
you helped me a lot! im only 11 and i have such a sucessful crochet business thankyou so so much!
I just started my crochet business but I struggle so bad with content on social media, like I don’t know what to post besides pieces that I do😫 and I have the tendency to underestimate myself, your video helps me !! Thank you girl🩷
Thank you so much for this video, I’m a single SAHM. I’ve been crocheting for a year now, the other day when I crocheted a gift for someone my mom said I should sell my projects. And this really helped me to get a foundation of where to start. I’m really nervous but I’m really passionate about crocheting.
Thank you. This was just what i needed to hear.. I'll be saving this video to go over again and again. Seriously, thank you for taking the time to do this.
Thank you so much! As a new crocteter, I Would love to see you making a content on stuffs like packaging or pricing
this is the very first video of yours i found, and ive been watching ur vids ever since, keep making content i love it :D
thanks a lot for the inspiration. as a small creator looking into growing my social platforms and etsy. this video was a huge motivation! my question is when selling your crochet items, is there a way you put your name on your creations before sending them off like a tag or something?
i’d love to see more of this content 😊
Thank you!! And yes, online or even on Etsy you can buy custom made clothing labels/tags that you can sew, or attach to your piece!
@@KamrynCain thank you ☺️
Thank you for this wholesome video. You are an intelligent young lady and no matter what you do in life you're going to rock it with your sweet attitude. ❤
I am so glad to find your video. I am so inspired now. Thank you.
i started an etsy after creating an instagram page and having ppl interested in buying but i easily got discouraged seeing no sales come through. people would show interest, i’d made a few of the products just bc i ended up having free time and when i uploaded it to the sites they changed their mind which is fine, but it’s discouraging as helllll!! im a broke ass college student so keeping the hobby alive started to get too much and now i rarely crochet which sucks bc i love it so much. I just wish i were able to find the thing that sticks and that draws ppl in bc rn its just customs and me testing our free patterns but im not at all creative enough to create my own kind of pattern ppl would wanna see i think thats where i get stuck 😭
hey i underrstand your frustration! im also a college student who runs a small crochet business (hookedbylibra on etsy :P) and this was my biggest issue too when I first started. I'm still figuring things out, but my best advice for you is to keep going!
I noticed you said you were making customs and making patterns, which is not a bad idea at all! however, a lot of small businesses take off by putting out a lot of one of their products and seeing how it does one at a time. it's time consuming, but not doing this when i first began is what catapulted my rocky start to my small business.
when I first started, the very first hat a i made was a strawberry crochet ruffle hat. i posted it on twitter and it received a lot of attention as like the creator said, coquette is on a rise and strawberries are a staple in the coquette community. i did not get a lot of sales, however, as i only had one of these in stock. as scary as it is, and as huge of an investment it is, I've seen better progress with stocking up the beanies and hats i sell. people see faster shipping, better quality of the products, and when an item is highly in stock they are more likely to buy!
i also receive a lot of inspiration off of pinterest if creativity is also an issue for you as it was for me when i first began. trust me, I have a LOT of ups and downs, especially right now, but I'm finding my way and you will too :)
I know in a world like today there’s a huge push to do it so you can monetize it/hobbies are good hobbies when they make money, but if you love it you should do it!! Don’t worry about making money or making it for anyone else, look up patterns for things that exist that you already like and practice on those. You shouldn’t stop something you love just because you’re not making money from it you know? Wishing you the best!!
Also being broke, I get yarn from thrift stores sometimes. I don’t sell these mainly bc the yarn realistically could’ve been anywhere, but it’s pretty easy to see which yarn is from someone who bought too much & is great (I’ve found vintage yarn fully packaged) and normally there’s a few bundles of yarn for $2/$3. That’s what I did to keep making stuff/practice in the beginning while still being able to eat lmao
Maybe try craft markets with a low table/booth fee
I appreciate your honesty and help. You're so adorable.
Thank you so much!
OMG I can't tell ya how much I appreciate this ❤ I'm tired of doing OT just to pay my bills. Time to crochet my heart out & nurture my crochet brand with full of love 💞
I’m having such a hard time putting myself out there. I’m a lot late to the video lol but i just started watching you and you are inspiring. I started my business a couple months ago and I haven’t sold anything yet. I just got my instagram up and running but like you said, I am shy and too nervous to put myself out there. A girl NEEDS HELP…
"ASK YOUR MOM! Your mom will tell you!" 🤣 Thanks for the information!
Let me tell you! I had to subscribe. You are such a kind hearted, kind sprit, sweet, individual. Thank you so much for your tips and advice. I'm planning to open an online store and I saw your video and it motivated me so much. Thanks again. Blessings ❤❤🇯🇲🇯🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
You are an amazing young lady! I hadn't crocheted since I was 12 yrs old and decided to make some baby blankets for my twins I'll meet soon. I've been enjoying it and considering selling some items, so I guess YT read my mind. Keep shining your light!
