How to start selling items

Hey everyone I’m not that new to Ribblr but I want to make new patterns but I don’t really have any ideas for it nor do I know how. Any suggestions?

usually what i do first is just come up with what i want to make. i get ideas by scrolling through pinterest or if i have an idea during the day ill make sure to write it down so i don’t forget.

next i do a few sketches of my idea. i usually draw 2-3 different variants of the pattern then pick which one matches my original idea best. once i get the design picked i draw it from 3-4 different angles just so i can get a better idea of it.

after that i start crocheting. it helps to know how to make basic shapes (spheres, ovals, cones, etc) before you start. i start with the biggest part, which is usually the body / head, then add on the details after. this step definitely takes the longest since i usually have to undo and redo it multiple times before it matches my original sketch.

once im done with that i take some quality photos and write up the pattern and photos into ribbuild. i always make sure to double check everything before i post my tester call then im done!

hopefully this helps and you can start making some wonderful patterns <3

The only problem is I’m not allowed to Have Pinterest and I don’t know what the heck I wanna make.
