Well, if so, then, this set of tutorials and videos is for you! At just $65, it may seem like a high price to pay. But, you’re getting the ability to document your crafting journey. It’s like splurging on a few skeins of yarn. You owe it to yourself.

What can you Learn from It?
There’s SO MUCH to learn from this! The PDF alone is worth its weight in gold. I’m totally not a video person, but I ate these up. They were SO interesting and full of information – all from a professional photographer who’s also a knitter herself! These aren’t just a generic Stand Like This, these are relevant and knowing for the fiber arts!
It covers things like photographing red yarn (and anyone who’s tried this knows the challenges of red yarn), shooting with both a traditional camera and an iPhone, adjusting for white balance – and comparisons for all of them!
I can’t say this strongly enough – this is GREAT information that you’ll even use when taking pics for your non-crafty adventures too.
Is this for Me?
If you’re a knitter or crocheter – then YES. How many times have you tried to capture the beauty of what you’re working on, only to be met with frustration and annoyance?
If you’re a designer – then Double YES. You want to entice people with your designs. And, you want to capture them in interesting ways for the pattern.
I know this comes out to a YES for almost everyone who’s reading this, but really – it’s that good. It’s chock-full of information that I’ve never seen all together in one place. While I’m sure it’s all on the internet, this is all together and here for you now.
Just do it.
