In this Q&A-style episode, Kara welcomes returning guest and "sidekick in crime," Tabetha Hedrick for another edition of Ask Kara & Tabetha Anything! Kara and Tabetha answer questions from live video audience during the live version of Power Purls Podcast, airing every Friday on the Power Purls Facebook page. Click here to watch the video and chime in with your own questions, or leave them in the comments below.  "How you put it all together thorough your own style, voice, and construction is what makes a design unique."  Episode highlights Judy asks: "How does one go about becoming a stitcher?"  Tabetha answers: It's all about reaching out and testing patterns. Kara answers: just get in there-- don't wait for all the ducks to be in a row! Fiber Boss Collective is a great resource for designers, knitters, with lots of activity about sample knitting and indie dyer resources. Why become a person of value by helping others in fiber groups will help you grow relationships. Why Ravelry is a good resource if you want to get into test knitting. Robin asks: "I am a combination knitter and I would like to know which stitches I need to do differently in order to follow a pattern and/or have my knitting turn out looking correct." Kara answers: If you are a combination knitter, purling English and knitting in Continental is a good idea because purling Continental can sometimes cause stitches to slant while working in Stockinette Stitch. Lousetta asks: "What makes a design unique and/or how many differences in a pattern makes it new? When can a designer claim it as a new submission? Tabetha answers: How you put it together thorough your own style, voice and construction is what makes a design unique. One of the biggest questions most new designers have is knowing if it's allowable to use stitch patterns from stitch dictionaries to integrate into a new design. Jennifer asks: "How did you get started in the knitting/yarn industry? and how long did it take you to gain a following? I just designed & published my first pattern (working on my second one now) and I have a 2x a week vlog but I am so new that I do not have a large following. Help!" Kara answers: focus on building community and the big "P" word -- PATIENCE and why this is essential in the beginning. It's about creating a community and growing this overtime. It doesn't take a huge following to make a sustainable living.  Tabetha answers: keep on designing, and give personalized attention with yarn companies. Don't give up! Kara shares why it's beneficial to look outside of the fiber world and gather ideas from mainstream online business people.

(Just a note, today's episode sounds rough on Felicia's side of the conversation... almost like she's talking into a tin can, but hopefully you'll still enjoy our chat!) March is finally here and we are delighted to share with you our new Spring with SweetGeorgia, Vol 2 collection! The designs in this collection capture everything that is casual, playful, and eclectic about the spring season. From feminine silhouettes to breathtaking colour in gorgeous textures, these pieces promise ease and lightness for every knitter. See our latest blog post to view all the details as well as our lookbook » Check in with Felicia, Founder + Creative Director of SweetGeorgia, and Tabetha, our Design Director for Knitwear as we chat about each of the pieces in the collection as well as some of the behind-the-scenes stories about how it all came together!

Today is a bit special and different from the other weekly episodes. Today, we are joined by our very own Design Director for Knitwear at SweetGeorgia Yarns, Tabetha Hedrick. Tabetha is a very accomplished knitwear designer, photographer, blogger, writer, editor and more. She's been working with us at SweetGeorgia over the past year and a half now, to really focus on creating knitwear design patterns that really bring out the best the our hand-dyed yarns. The last time we spoke was the Holiday launch LAST YEAR, so I thought we should catch up with Tabetha and see what she's been doing since then.

We've gone a little crazy pants and broadcasted live on Facebook, and... turned it into this podcast episode! with Tabetha Hedrick, Design Director of Sweet Georgia Yarns. I thought it would be an interactive way to bring you another edition of Ask Kara & Tabetha Anything. We answer a listener question about pattern grading and how to create balance between life, work and finding time for our knitting. If you want to watch the original video broadcast, you can check it out, and you can also catch me live at 12pm EST Fridays, on Facebook.com/PowerPurlsPodcast. To watch past broadcasts, you can find them in the video library on the Power Purls Facebook page.   Episode highlights: How we are turning the video version of Unplugged into a podcast episode. When it comes to grading (sizing) patterns, is this the designer's or the publisher's job? Sizing standards for designers and hobby knitters: www.craftyarncouncil.org Does the publisher provide a tech editor for designers patterns? When to hire a tech editor to size your patterns. Kara and Tabetha debate this topic! Work/life balance is learning to "take turns" as Crochet! editor Ellen Gormley explains in episode 021  You can do everything you want, but just not at the same time. We're looking for a way to put everything in a neat box, but we live in an imperfect. If balance is a myth, what can we do what matters most in the moment. Learning to say no and practicing acceptance because we can't control the universe.  

Meet Tabetha Hedrick, who I like to fondly call my Creative Knitting magazine "sidekick in crime." She is also the new Design Director at Sweet Georgia Yarns and has been published in numerous books, magazines, and yarn company collections and designs distinctively-classic hand-knitting patterns. You can also find Tabetha spinning yarn, creating some of her magnificent zen tangling, and teaching knitting, all while being a busy wife and mother to two gorgeous girls. Tabetha lives by the belief that joy comes when fully participating in the present moment and "adding a dose of design in the fiber realm that takes that joy to pure bliss," says Tabetha.
