This is a hack that I learned not to long ago. Let me know if it's helpful in the comments below.

I’m so glad you’re here. 🤍 If you clicked into the Designer Starter Path, it probably means you’re curious about something more. Maybe you’ve been crocheting for a while. Maybe you love following patterns. Maybe you’ve even thought, “Could I design something myself?” That curiosity? That’s where designers begin. The Designer Starter Path is your introduction to crochet design — without overwhelm, pressure, or intimidation. Inside this free tier, you’ll learn how to start thinking like a designer. You’ll explore: • What actually makes a crochet pattern good • The mindset shifts designers have to make • The tools and resources you really need (not 100 extras) • How crochet patterns are structured • How to find inspiration intentionally • Why yarn and stitch choice matter • How to swatch your idea • Where to sell your crochet patterns This is your foundation. Not advanced math. Not publishing strategies. Not business systems. Just clarity. Because before you can build something confidently, you need to understand how it’s built. That’s what this space is for. 🧶 How to Get Started 1️⃣ Begin with Module 1 and move through the lessons in order. 2️⃣ Take your time, but don’t just watch — reflect and engage. 3️⃣ When you reach the crochet your swatch lesson, complete the exercise and share your thoughts in the community. Progress happens when you participate. And remember — you do not need to be advanced to be here. You just need curiosity and a willingness to learn. I created this space to feel supportive, structured, and beginner-friendly. You’re allowed to ask questions. You’re allowed to grow at your pace. You’re allowed to explore. You’re not behind. You’re building. Let’s get started. 🧶✨— CeeCee
