Helping tech editors build thriving businesses!

In this course, you'll learn what a tech editor is, what skills they need, and the different paths to becoming a tech editor. You'll also get access to my Tech Editing Test Drive Workshop.

Imagine being able to earn money doing something you love.  If numbers and knitting make you happy then tech editing could be just your thing. If you want to become a tech editor, there isn't one clear path. You could do a lot of trial-and-error, read a lot of incomplete posts about it, take classes that teach you some things but not others, and then try to convince designers to hire you. With a lot of time and a lot of patience that path can totally work. But there's got to be a better way, right? This course is that better way.

This course will teach you how to make professional looking schematics and sketches on an iPad using the Apple Pencil. You'll also need to buy two apps -- Procreate and Graphic.

I've created a few patterns but [I don't really know what I'm doing, it's just a hobby, I couldn't ever really earn any money from it.] Designer Bootcamp is designed to bust through those fears and worries and show you that whatever your goal is, it's totally possible to achieve it Here's what we cover in this 6-week course: Picking Yarn and Stitch Pattern  Sketching Swatching for Gauge Planning and Casting On Knitting the Sample Grading  Calculating Yardage Photography  Pattern Layout Tech Editing and Test Knitting Publishing and Promoting Your Pattern  Moving Forward You get two lessons a week and each lesson comes with a worksheet plus a replay video of the Q&A session that I held during the live round of this course.
