Let’s talk crochet markets! Finding them, applying for them, imposter syndrome and getting scammed. Bonus, let’s figure out how to avoid scams next time! #crochet #marketprep #scammed Come find on me Instagram . Let’s be yarn friends!
Let me just say, I crochet and I love watching your videos - you are lovely, and I love listening to your videos while a crochet. Plushies aren't part of my market inventory, but none the less you get me pumped about trying new patterns and building the inventory! Keep doing what you're doing Mama! ❤
THANK YOU!!! I’m trying a few non-plush items for Christmas gifts! It’s a totally different challenge, but I love it! Would love to know if you have any favorite makes! Thank you so much!
I’m sorry that happened to you 😢 Report it the police. I almost got scammed too on FB. What you create is art and it’s beautiful! Never doubt yourself! You are an inspiration to me🥰
I love listening to you! I have about 6 shopping carts with yarn, can’t afford to buy them but I feel sort of good by at least pretending I can get it!! Your work is amazing, I know the confidence issue. I’ve started making my second long form video for my RU-vid channel about 4 times now and keep stopping. My anxiety keeps taking over. Still sitting here wanting to do it, but just not getting there.
I watched yours, and it was great! I really wish I lived closer, cause I would have snatched up several of them! Sorry for the late reply, so some reason youtube held this comment back until I approved it 🤷🏻♀️ Please make more, I love love LOVE binging crochet content!!
SAME almost exact thing happened to me! And strangely enough if was a local school craft fair too! And also, I knew as well that as soon as I sent the payment something was wrong, I contacted the real organizers of the event, sent them a message on Facebook immediately and they didn’t respond for 2 weeks, we should start a support group
Oh no! I’m so sorry it happened to you too. The scammers are everywhere!! They don’t mess around. Ugh! Same with my show, they weren’t answering emails or tending to their Facebook page at all, which definitely doesn’t help 😢
Just want to let you know that i love your videos because you are so grunded and come! Almost everyone else is so excited and over the top when they make videos and it is just too much! Big love to you! 🫶🏼
I have been doing markets and fairs for 3 years now and I still feel insecure the whole time I am getting ready and while I am there. I know I can do it but it's so so intimidating!! I know your going to be amazing in your adventures I know you sent the checks in but lady no more holding out!!!!
Congrats to Andy and you! My daughter has Autism and shes 5.5 years old. It's such a challenge raising children on the spectrum. You should reward yourself 🎉
Yarn in carts online that you're trying to talk yourself into/out of buying.... TOO RELATABLE 🤣 Mail your dang checks in!!! I did my first market in June, I've done about 7 of them now! I have 34 upcoming that are paid and confirmed, and apps in to about 4 more! Imposter syndrome is real real real! But positive feedback helps so much! I reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally want to start making youtube vids because I feel like it would be so fun, but that is where I am hung up at! Anywho, sorry for blabbing. OH! Congrats on 500 subs!!!
Thank you for your kind peptalk! Now say those exact words to YOURSELF!! You're right: we can encourage others so much easier than ourselves!!! 🤣😯😯❤❤❤❤
I am so sorry you got scammed and I hope this helps other people. Please watch this video back 3 times and listen to the words that you said while they don't penetrate my ears They should penetrate yours, everything you make is incredible and it has a home with somebody. You are an artist
Hey, don't be embarrassed about being scammed!! Yours sounded legit! I honestly would've done the same thing!! Let me tell you, I was scammed about a year ago, a real BIG scam and lost, not hundreds but thousands of dollars..😭😭😭😠😠 I still feel sick about it. These people know what they're doing! You're not stupid!! They played on my emotions too.. just learn from it and then move on as quickly as you can! 😊❤❤❤ Good luck with your markets!!! I'm crocheting my first amigurumi ball as I watch this..❤
Thanks so much. Scammers are so savvy these days, they turn up everywhere. But we love and learn! Thanks for watching, and for the support, I appreciate it!
Me and my mom have done one market pre-covid. Next month we are doing one more! It really is just a hobby, but i am really nervous about our boot-setup and prices 😅
I totally relate! I officially have a market next month, and it’s overwhelming, right? We are gonna kill it! I would love to hear about your booth setup! Good luck, you got this!!
Aww im sorry you got scammed karen :( scammers are the worst!! there are scammers everywhere and its so scary. You should never be ashamed for being scammed. Shame on the low life scammer who scammed you!!
Definitely have the imposter syndrome, people tell me all my stuff is so cute and how talented I am I'm like"literally anyone can do this" but that may not be true
It’s so hard to see ourselves objectively, right? Keep reminding yourself that you’re amazing. You make beautiful things with your own hands. That’s a gift!!
@@YarnandWhimsyDesigns It's been a while since I used PP. Are you able dispute the transaction as fraud? PP may be able to pull the money out from their account.
So sorry you were scammed. Shake it off and move on. You will get something and this is just a bump in the road. I do markets every year. Eventually you will get the right contacts. ❤🇨🇦🧶
