Reader Survey Results (& Giveaway Winners!)

July 22, 2014 1 Comment

Reader Survey Results (& Giveaway Winners!) at handsoccupied.com Thank you so so much to everyone who completed the Reader Survey this year! It’s clear that I’ve got a bunch of knitters and crocheters on my hands these days, and you guys want patterns, tips, knit alongs and crochet ideas. Don’t worry, non-needlers, I will still be doing other DIYs! I do need some time, after all, to develop new patterns and knit or crochet them up.

Since there’s a ton of data to share today, I’m keeping this intro short. :) If you’re dying to know the answers to some of your direct questions, I’ll be addressing your requests and “ask me anythings” in the coming weeks on the blog. Stay tuned for that. Finally, if you’re curious to see if you won the giveaway, scroll to the bottom of this post to see the winners!

    I didn’t fill out the survey b/c I’m too biased – everything you do is awesome! Though in my humble opinion, you definitely need more videos and a web series. You have a great presence!

If you look closely, you’ll see I’m casually k If you look closely, you’ll see I’m casually knitting from one sweater into another here, no big deal. (What can I say, I lost a game of yarn chicken. 😂) I almost didn’t post this because I was worried someone might have some nonsense to say about my ability to knit. Then I remembered I can’t care about that. Silly me, I almost forgot myself!

Speaking of which, dang it’s good to have my mental health back consistently after the past couple of years. The anxious parts of my personality are just chilling, rather than constantly screaming that my work isn’t good enough to share. The confident parts of me that matter have me creating (and starting to share my creations & process with strangers and friends) again!
