Here’s the first entry in my new weekday series helping to find you all of the potential crochet job links from around the web. Bear with me as this series develops … I’ll be looking for more sources for leads. I am also taking job ads so if you need to hire a pattern tester, tech editor, contract crocheter, etc. then consider advertising with me.

Contract Crocheters Wanted
KRW Knitwear is seeking a few new contract crocheters to help her out. I personally love the work that she does and think she would be terrific to work with. In fact, I had planned on applying to work with her myself but some things came up that changed my immediate career plans. Anyhow, Karen is seeking experienced crocheters to create finished designs from her original patterns. Washington State local crocheters preferred but this isn’t a requirement. Karen is a professional and expects you to be as well. You should have good stitching skills, be able to keep designs under wraps until they’re released to the public, etc. In exchange, you’ll be paid for your work and will get the opportunity to crochet some great designs with some fun yarn.
