Hot Cakes Episode 17: Stop Devaluing “Hobby” Skills!
(Episode 16 is on YouTube!)
We are back from our hiatus! In this episode of Hot Cakes, Sara and Jules discuss what to expect (and what NOT to expect) from knitting/crochet patterns and classes, how skills are devalued in the fiber arts industry, and why it matters to pay artists in this capitalist hellscape. Fun!
