Question
Will the patterns workout the same, if I use easy peasy thread or would I have to make adjustments? Other than hook or eye size.

Yep they should work out the same! Changing the hook size and eyes are only things you'd adjust.

@Lisa Gollotte Oh yes! The Woobles, right?
Are you UNDERCHARGING for your crochet? 🤔
.....do you ever finish a plushie for a market and think, ❝Okay… but what am I actually supposed to charge for this?❞ Pricing crochet can feel like a guessing game. In this week’s episode of Simply Hooked: A Crochet Podcast, I’m sharing the framework I use to price my plushies. If you’ve ever worried you’re charging too much… or wondered if you’re actually charging way too little… this episode is for you. 🎧 LISTEN ON SPOTIFY 🎧 LISTEN ON APPLE 🎧 LISTON ON YOUTUBE

Big Changes Are Coming to Our Community 🧶
I've been doing a lot of thinking about what I want this community to become and, more importantly, how I can make it genuinely useful for the people who spend time here. Over the past few months, I've realized that some of the conversations I'm most passionate about are the ones surrounding the business side of crochet: Etsy, product photography, pricing, marketing, email, creating products people want to buy, growing an audience and figuring out how all of these pieces fit together. So, I'm going to be giving this community a much clearer focus. Simply Hooked's Crochet Corner is becoming Hooked on Growth, a community specifically for crochet business owners and those who hope to start a crochet business. If you sell crochet patterns, finished products, kits or other crochet-related products, or you're simply thinking about turning your crochet into a business someday, this community is going to be for you. We'll be talking about the things that actually go into building a creative business, including what's working in my own business, what's not working, experiments I'm trying, Etsy and website strategies, marketing, product photos, email, pricing and plenty more. And I want this to be a place where we can learn from each other, ask questions, share wins and talk openly about the parts of running a crochet business that aren't always easy. If you're here simply because you love crochet and have no interest in selling, I completely understand. I'm still going to be sharing patterns, crochet inspiration and everything happening with Simply Hooked through my regular channels. The focus inside this particular community, however, will begin shifting toward crochet business growth. I'm really excited about giving this space a clearer purpose, and I think it's going to allow us to create something incredibly helpful together. Bear with me as a I update all of the classrooms with new business-centric content. Here's to growing our crochet businesses together! 🧶

@Angelina Rivera Awesome! Do you sell crochet?
POLL! Do you sell finished crochet products or digital patterns?
I want to start this business transition by polling sellers on what exactly you sell...

@Katy Ann Hey Katy! If you're thinking about transitioning to selling, I did a podcast episode about it that might be helpful :) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-start-a-crochet-business-turn-your-hobby/id1789775474?i=1000698022938
🧶 How to Price Your Crochet | New Episode!
Not sure what to charge for your crochet plushies or amigurumi? In this episode, I’m sharing the pricing framework I’ve developed after years of selling handmade crochet at markets and online. I talk about how I use size as a starting point, then adjust for complexity, skill level, materials, finishing work and overall value. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this! 😊 I hope it's helpful!
