Welcome to ep 22 of The Crochet Authority pod!! Today we are chatting about the online marketplace, Etsy. Marketed as a place for artists to sell their goods to a larger audience, it seems like the best place to buy and sell your handmade or vintage goods.

Welcome to ep 21 of The Crochet Authority pod!! Burnout is an inevitable experience for an artist of any level.

We discuss it all in this ep!
