It is difficult to find an appropriate label for what I'm doing. When I'm asked what I do for a living by non Knitters no matter what I say it leads to some discussion because we don't really have an formal title like most working people. I have quit my full time job to pursue this. I am earning money but I'm in the red right now since I started in April 2010.As most small entrepreneurial pursuits I expect it to take a while to balance income with expenditures.There are a few Professionals who are in the black. Generally they have more than one income stream. They design, teach, tech edit or retail knitting products. Hopefully I'll get to that place soon but truthfully this is a passion that I will pursue no matter what the financial compensation turns out to be.Robin https://www.blogger.com/profile/01240699910272614928noreply@blogger.com
