I'm Jessica, the knitting pattern designer behind Snickerdoodle Knits, founder of Pattern Design Circle, and coach behind Full Circle Entrepreneurship. I've been designing knitting patterns for over 6 years and mentoring knit and crochet pattern designers for the past 4.5 years. It's my passion to connect with fellow pattern designers (and potential designers!) to share my love of designing, business, and marketing; support them in their journey; and provide them with the resources to build the aligned, sustainable business of their dreams. I know the journey can feel lonely, and it's my mission to help you know you aren't alone. I look forward to seeing you in class! Why might you choose to design patterns? I asked some fellow designers why they design. Here's what they shared! When I started knitting, every new project was a way to explore another technique—and that was before YouTube! Now as a designer and teacher, I get to learn a whole new set of skills and then pass my knowledge on to other knitters. I love the logic and math involved in writing patterns, and the opportunity to show techniques visually in my linked tutorials. Mary Beth Kelso I design knitting patterns to use creativity to test and express ideas that are analytically inspired. I love the opportunity this provides to other makers who want to be challenged and learn new skills while making something they'll be proud to wear or gift. Yvonne Poon, Gamer Babe Knits I started designing because I wanted to create financial freedom for myself. I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit, and with knitwear design I can combine my desire for self-employment and my physical need to create. Megan, Pip & Pin Designing fulfills my creative urge. I love to knit and crochet, but living now in a climate that does not require much knit/wooly clothing, so designing is my ‘excuse’ to dive into creating/making more pieces, in this case not for me, but for others. I like to solve puzzles, and the ‘math’ part of the pattern plus finding the best way and solution for some tricky parts, definitely drives me to do it again and again. In the end, it’s so nice to see how my idea and my instructions transform into someone’s project. @natalia_yarncraft Love It! Sign Me Up!

Top Management Trends January 1, 2025 Pattern Design Circle - Coaching on Higher Ground January 1, 2025 10 Ways to Get to Yes January 1, 2025

Hello, I'm Jessica I dabbled in numerous crafts and hobbies as a kid, and knitting was one of them, but I never spent enough time on it to really get good at it. At some point in high school or college, I finished a scarf that had taken my at least five years to make. Every time I picked it up, I'd have to re-learn the difference between a knit and a purl and how to make each correctly. Looking at the pattern now, I realize it was quite simple, but it included making three stitches out of one and then decreasing the three stitches together, and the techniques felt so daunting. But during the many-years-long process, it somehow dawned on me that most everything in knitting comes from just a knit stitch and a purl stitch -- and after that project was finished, I had complete confidence that I could learn how to do anything in knitting if I only put my mind to it. (It's probably a good thing I hadn't heard about brioche or considered making sweaters at that time!) It truly was pivotal in the way I perceived the craft of knitting in my own life, but it didn't cause me to pick up my needles on a more regular basis. It wasn't until my last semester of college (spring 2018) that I started to get "serious" about knitting. The summer before I'd made friends with a lady who owned a yarn dyeing business (Rachel of Six & Seven Fiber), and it was through her that the concept of a knitting community, knitting designers, and hand dyed yarn was opened up to me. She encouraged me to pick up my needles again, and in December of 2017 I learned how to cable. I thought it was going to be extremely difficult, but much to my surprise, it wasn't difficult, and it was a lot of fun -- so that's really what hooked me on the craft! I graduated with high honors in an engineering major, but I wasn't loving the line of work; I needed creativity. I started a job in interior design, but long story short, a few months later, I essentially found myself jobless in a tiny college town in Wyoming with minimal job opportunities, and my husband had a year left in his Master's degree. I realized this would be my best opportunity for opening an Etsy shop -- so I did it! Snickerdoodle Knits started October 1, 2018 on Etsy selling chunky hand knits. Just a couple months in, I told Rachel that I knew I wouldn't be able to do it forever -- it was hard on my hands and getting boring knitting the same patterns over and over. I saw two potential paths: yarn dyeing and pattern designing, but I didn't see much potential for me in either. One would require a bit of up-front investment and space we didn't have, and I didn't think I was artsy or creative enough for designing. Until a few months later, I had an idea for an entire design collection. My first pattern was released April 1, 2019, and the ideas have been flowing ever since. I'm excited to be adding some additional services to Snickerdoodle Knits this year, with a knitting community that includes mini courses and guest speakers; mentoring for new designers; and a community for designers that will be coming in summer 2021.

Hello! I'm Jessica, the knitting pattern designer and business coach behind Snickerdoodle Knits and Pattern Design Circle. I'm passionate about supporting knit and crochet pattern designers so they feel empowered, confident, and excited about their business. As a pattern designer myself, I struggled to find other designers that I could build strong connections with, and I grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of wholistic support for pattern designers. I craved a group where I could feel supported in my business, marketing, mindset, designing... and life as a whole. I wanted to find a group of designers who understood, were positive and supportive, and who were striving for success themselves. After years of learning from amazing coaches outside the fiber industry, I finally created the group I was looking for: Pattern Design Circle. With a foundation of collaboration and community support, Pattern Design Circle empowers you to choose the best path for your business, acknowledges the nuances of our industry, and provides resources to support you as your needs and business change. For me, it's all about support when you feel like quitting, reassurance that you aren't alone - no matter what you're facing, reminders of your unique values, goals, and s trengths, and growing in ways you'd never expected.
