🧶 Cool Wool Community

A connected space for knitters, crocheters, designers, tech editors & crafting creatives

The Cool Wool Community exists because something was missing in the knitting and crochet industry.

After over 10 years as a designer and tech editor, I saw the same thing again and again:
People didn’t just want training — they wanted connection, conversation, shared learning, and relationships with other crafters.

They wanted a space to:

  • Talk to people who understand the crafting world

  • Learn from each other

  • Build relationships

  • Share opportunities

  • Grow businesses and skills naturally

  • Feel part of something bigger than working alone

So the Cool Wool Community was created.

Not as a course.
Not as coaching.
Not as a marketplace.
But as a living, growing, crafting community.

Why this community is different

This isn’t just a group.
It’s not just content.
It’s not just Zoom calls.

It’s a relationship-based collaborative space.

If you’re a designer → you can meet tech editors and testers
If you’re a tech editor → you can connect with designers
If you’re a tester → you can find opportunities

It’s a space where:

  • People know each other

  • People collaborate

  • People grow together

  • People don’t compete
