If you want to find out how to make a business knitting shawl pieces or knitting in general, you've got the right article.
I've actually been knitting for a few decades now.
What started out as a hobby, became an interest of my childrens', and eventually became a business for me.
I can honestly say that it's been a blessing since it happened.
I am not very business oriented and actually began knitting when my children were younger and at home.
Knitting shawl pieces and other clothing was a very therapeutic activity.
It gave me a chance to be creative and to do my own thing for a while too.
Basically, it gave me time for myself...
which I so needed with four children in the house with me! My business began years ago when I started knitting shawl pieces for my daughters while they were in junior high.
The girls absolutely loved them and wore them to school throughout the fall and winter on basically a daily basis.
The shawls caught on and I was literally knitting shawl pieces for all of their friends (I have three daughters!).
You can imagine how busy I was! Eventually, one shawl was not enough so the girls' mothers began to call me and request if I could continue knitting shawl pieces for them.
They themselves even promoted me in the girl scouts troop and PTA meetings to knit for fundraisers and events like that.
I started knitting shawl pieces for fundraisers, gifts, and to sell during the holidays and at the local crafts market.
