Why I'm Choosing Progress Over Perfection in My Crochet Business

Today, I'm talking about something that’s been weighing on me: Progress Over Perfection. From a conversation at work that hit home, to unfinished trim and hesitating on starting a market booth—this episode is all about showing up even when it's messy.
Inside this video:
A peek at my new creative studio space (in progress!)
What’s holding me back from vending at a crochet market
How I'm planning to start with just one pattern (hello, Virus Shawl!)
Upcoming patterns + sunflower projects
A teaser for Boho Crojo, my new free digital magazine!
Why I'm so proud of my yarn BFF Cydney from Sweetpea Sids Inspirations and her big rebrand

Whether you’re a maker, a dreamer, or someone who never finishes the trim—this one’s for you. Let’s stop letting perfection keep us stuck, and make some progress!

⚠️ Correction: In the video, I accidentally said our sunflower-themed livestream is on Saturday, July 29 — oops! The correct date is Saturday, July 19th at 10AM Central. I can't edit the video without re-uploading, but I wanted to make sure you have the right info. Hope to see you there!
Join me and ‪@SweetpeaCydsInspirations‬ this Saturday at 10AM Central for all things sunflower-y, yarny, and uplifting.
