following the first two weeks back home after my trip to nyc, feeling an immense wave of creativity. trying to open up more and be transparent, vulnerable and honest about the realities of running a business and building a sustainable life. expectations are always ironically opposite of reality - although it can be disappointing at times, it only makes fruition that much more rewarding. excited to share my feelings with you all xoxo

Hi Erin! I wanted to say that I appreciate your transparency because I think so many of us, not just content creators/influencers, try to always make our life look “better” online. I think even though you didn’t sell as much as you hoped at the yarn shop, half is still great and now you got your name out there to new people. And I think it says a lot that you were brave enough to take that risk and try something new. Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’re doing great. ❤️ sending love

@cali.ana.stitchery 11 месяцев назад

ERIN!! You are such a great and inspiring creator. Reaching 100K subscribers and featuring your own yarn in a shop are not small tasks. I’ve looked up to you for a long time and I’m super proud of how far you’ve come. I’ve been a silent supporter since you started but have only recently started coming out of my shell and interacting. I work two jobs and still don’t feel as productive as you are! The way you manage your time amazes me 🦋💕

@vee.eureka 11 месяцев назад

Hey girl! I haven't crocheted for months now because of hand problems but i still get happy when you upload 💕 and excited what projects we get to see in the video.

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

Oh no!! I hope your hand heals, your projects will patiently await your return 💖

@vee.eureka 11 месяцев назад

@@itserinb im doing cross stitch for now, until i am sure that i can crochet again without pain 💕

@artie.makes7 11 месяцев назад

The scarf/belt seems really cool! I would recommend knitting in another color/yarn (probably non-variegated) so that the stitch pattern is more clear so customers can make good yarn decisions. You should also definitely post to ravelry! There’s a big crowd of fiber artists there that exclusively pattern shop there, so it’s a whole new market :)

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for the tip! I just added to ravelry 💖

@cyaraknits 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for sharing your experience with your pop up shop and your disappointment with the outcome. I had a similar experience last month when I participated in a makers market and I knitted so many pieces and clocked so many hours of work with the expectation that most of my items would sell😭 I only ended up selling one clothing item that I made, and while it was still a good experience at the market and I was proud of myself for even being there, I definitely felt disappointed in the outcome of sales/work ratio. But it happens to the best of us! I love your work and your creations are amazing! Keep it up girl!!💛💛👏🏾

@nikkii3591 11 месяцев назад

I love your energy and how you are so positive about trying new things. I can imagine that its not easy, every time i watch your vlogs you try to improve yourself and be conscious. I really love your videos and your creative work. 👍🏼☺️

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

I really appreciate your kind comment. Thank you for noticing the amount of effort I put into my business, lots of people aren’t aware of how difficult it can be and I’m glad you see me 💖

Hi Erin .Only found your channel today😊❤keep up the great work❤Silvia

@itserinb 10 месяцев назад

Thank you!! So happy you found my channel and welcome to the fiber fam 💖

@dazedfiberarts 11 месяцев назад

You’re quite literally amazing woman. Thank you for being so open and vulnerable.

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

This is so sweet. Thank you for being here 💖

@katherinebilligmeier9586 11 месяцев назад

LOVE the honesty, Erin. Thank you for sharing the ups and downs and realities. I get very excited and get high expectations when I do a new exciting thing too (like starting my Etsy shop) but some things are harder than you expect

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

I’m so so glad you appreciate my honesty on this!! It’s so exciting to try new adventures or launch new things, but it can be a little discouraging when it doesn’t translate how you wished with the public. Speaking openly on this is new to me as well, but I’m really happy and relieved to see that it’s resonating positively, thank you! 💖

@buesmith 11 месяцев назад

Just got home from the hospital and saw you posted! Truly made my day much better. ☺️ I appreciate your honesty. I’m sorry that things didn’t go as you had hoped. You’re doing amazing and I’m rooting for you☺️🩵

@itserinb 10 месяцев назад

Thank you Bue for being here and cheering me on every single video. I appreciate you 💖

@crochetwithnotz6860 11 месяцев назад

My mom like to say the little that you did is better than doing nothing at all. That being said you should be very proud of yourself not many of us can do what you did or are doing. Your doing great. I look up to you very very much. You inspire me a lot

@sandragryczon5858 11 месяцев назад

It’s so cool that you are trying with patterns writing! You are such an inspiration Erin 💚🤎 And it’s even more because of beeing real and honest.

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

I’m so thankful to see that I have understanding and kind followers here, motivates me to open up more with you 💖

@MissTupsy 11 месяцев назад

I struggle with expectations vs reality just in my everyday life.......always trying to cram as much as I can do in one day. Why do we do this to ourselves? Too much to do....too little time I guess? I really enjoy your content Erin!!♥♥

@amara560 11 месяцев назад

This vlog was so nice and easy going! And I gotta say that brown looks great on you as a colour. So excited to see you design pstterns, writing them up and getting them tested! I've been dealing with some stuff that has kept me from crocheting too much (and thus testing for you😢), but I am massively cheering you on from the sidelines❤

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

No worries Amara!! Working on plenty more from here on out and I’m sure you’ll be able to test for me one of these days! Thank you for always being here and supporting me through it all 💖

@maddisonestes8764 11 месяцев назад

Ekk I am so excited for you to release more patterns! Your first one was so fun and so easy to follow!

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

Ahhh thank you!!! I’m literally editing one right now, hope to have a pretty little collection by the end of the year 💖

@shirleychase170 11 месяцев назад

You motivate my lazy self, hahaa. I have a small beading shop but I haven't work on it since the pandemic.... And I been crochet ing a lot more and x stitch here and there. I am proud of you and you are awesome. Much love, young lady. 🙏💪💃

@brujapandorabox 11 месяцев назад

I will def be ordering more yarn from you! I just made halter top from one the hanks I bought back in March from you, and its so pretty!!! Your work is amazing !

@kanicabansal937 11 месяцев назад

Hey, I have a video request, can u make a beginner tutorial on different yarn fibers like which ones are the best for what type of projects and their pros and cons and stuff. It would be really helpful bcs I have been crocheting for like more than a year and I never thought of checking the yarn fiber as well while buying them and when I watched few of ur videos, I realised there are sooo many different fibres available so I started to do a little research on the yarn fibers but did not find a satisfactory video on youtube. So can u pls pls make one on this topic??

@itserinb 10 месяцев назад

Ironically, I filmed and uploaded a “yarn type” video like 6 months ago and never posted it but I’m thinking about doing an updated one just like this!! 💖

@kanicabansal937 10 месяцев назад

@@itserinb Thank you so much 💕💗

@selenagomez582 11 месяцев назад

That accessory is so cute. Can we have a tutorial for it please?

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

The pattern is available on my website, kofi and revelry 💖

@micaela.herrera 11 месяцев назад

I think it's super normal for products to perform differently in store vs. online. I hear many artists talk about what sells well at a craft fair might not do as well online and vice versa. Different target audiences I guess?

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

Yes! It was a completely different audience and age difference. I tried to guess which would be best for that audience but was a little shocked when I realized the difference in investment vs profit 🫣

@appatters7136 11 месяцев назад

what font did you use for your cover photo? it’s beautiful

@getawaycrochet 11 месяцев назад

Are you going to create any fall colorways?

@itserinb 11 месяцев назад

Yes I’m working on 20+ colors rn and will have some fall colors too! Any color combos you’re looking for in specific? 💖

@getawaycrochet 11 месяцев назад

I am a sucker for all fall yarn

@pfftxoxo1502 11 месяцев назад

I think the difference between in store and online buying is when you buy online you simply buy because you like the colour. In store you get the opportunity to actually feel the yarn and while colour is beautiful, texture is a very big part of knitwear

@itserinb 10 месяцев назад

Yes!! I think a huge difference was the crowd I was selling to. Def a noticeable age difference and project type of crowd, whereas most of my online sales are a younger age group too!
