Only available in print.

In this episode, Jessica of the Pattern Design Circle interviews Hanna Lisa about paying yourself inside the knit and crochet industry. We discuss the value of transparency and vulnerability in business, the ability to show up as you are and not playing any roles as a business owner, and the struggle to pay yourself as a designer, including industry pricing, money mindset, and fear mindsets.

Hanna Lisa talks with powerhouse Saskia de Feijter about doing business in the fiber industry, including whether purpose or profit matters more, and how to build a value-based business.

Best quote from the episode (according to us both): "I fucking refuse to aim low. Making a profit in this industry, it needs to be possible. We're gonna make this possible!" - Hanna Lisa
