She is an excellent person to have in your corner. One of my favorite things about our check-ins is her thoughtful questions. She is always extending an invitation to take a closer look at things if I am glossing by too quickly or to take a step back if I am too in the weeds. I also appreciate her sharing her own ups and downs in our group, I learn as much from lessons others learn as from their successes.

DESIGN COACHING You're excited to explore knitwear design at a deeper level, but you're not sure what the next step is, or how to get there. I'm here to walk you through the design process step-by-step, but in a way that's customized to your needs and style. 1-on-1 design coaching for the indie knitting pattern designer that's feeling lost and overwhelmed in the business, marketing, or designing. You love the idea of designing and publishing knitting patterns. You're comfortable with knitting and you have some design ideas, but you're just not quite sure how to make it work. You feel like you're walking blindly through the dark, and you need someone to guide you through the process so you can feel confident and motivated in your process. Do you question every decision you're making for your design, wondering if you're doing it right? Are you feeling overwhelmed by everything you need to do, and you're not sure where to start? Do you need just a little bit of guidance to assure you that you're on the right path? You're not alone. Just a few years ago, I was there too. When I began designing my own patterns, everything I knew about the knitting community came from a couple of YouTube podcasts that I watched. I'd never met a designer before, I was brand-new to the online knitting community, and I didn't have knitting business friends to go to for advice. It's not easy to start out as a knitting pattern designer, especially if you don't already have connections within the industry. It's hard to find the resources you need, or the right person to ask questions of. There are hundreds of marketing strategists and business coaches, but they just can't help with the "knitty gritty" of designing knitting patterns. And that's why I am here, offering you guidance to make your journey easier. To show you the path, and to help you customize the path to what works best for you. Book Now "[My expectations] were met and then some. [I most enjoyed] the way you explain things and are so organized and listen to me. I am very pleased. Yes [I recommend your design coaching]! You are so nice and helpful." - New Knitwear Designer 1-on-1 Design Coaching When you book a design coaching call with me, I make the experience completely catered to you and how you learn best, making sure to address all of your questions, and giving you the flexibility to create your designs in the way that you are most comfortable with. The beauty of working 1-on-1 is truly the customization aspect. Whether you're struggling with finding inspiration, manipulating the math for multiple sizes, or getting your work out into the world, I walk through the process with you. Not only does this mean you get all of your questions answered, it also means that you don't have to listen to your coach tell you everything you already know. We only talk about what you need, and I don't waste your time. And as my clients like to say, I'm your mentor-cheerleader-friend, here for you each step of your journey. Book Now I help with most everything business and marketing related, and anything intermediate design level and below. Here are a few examples of how I help new designers: * Discover new sources of inspiration for your designs * Develop a design process that works best for you * Learn how to move from inspiration to design elements * Discover resources that will make your design and pattern writing processes easier * Learn how to use your gauge and sizing to do the math for your pattern * Understand the roles that tech editing and test knitting play in your design process * Begin a marketing strategy for launching your design And a few examples of how I help experienced designers: * Uncover why their business feels misaligned * Discover a marketing strategy that feels authentic and aligned * Learn how to create an aligned business that feels good * Receive support with their business, marketing, and designing * Get an outside perspective on what's working * Understand the roles that tech editing and test knitting play in your design process * Begin a marketing strategy for launching your design Depending on your learning style, I will: * Chat with you via video call to walk through your process, needs, and any questions that arise for you * Record tutorials to walk you through each step of a process, especially for technical aspects of your work * Host a video chat where I can share my screen with you and walk you through each step real-time * Answer your specific questions via a video recording, or a video call The total amount of time I work with you is dependent on how much support you need. Calls are booked in 30 or 60 minute increments. Book Now © Pattern Design Circle 2024

Maybe it feels like everyone else has forgotten, too. But I haven’t, and I whole-heartedly believe it’s important to live your life ~ fully ~ as you .

Inside the first Inner Work Kit THE $37 Maybe it's hard to spend $37 on yourself. You'd drop it on art supplies for your kids without a second thought, but spending it on something that's genuinely, completely just for you? That's where it gets complicated. But this is $37 toward a month that actually includes you. It's a small investment in a life that feels more vibrant, more present, and more fully yours. THIS MIGHT FEEL RELATABLE... Does this sound familiar? Stretched thin, taking care of everyone else, managing a hundred needs before you listen to your own. You know you need to fill your cup. You know you need time for yourself. And the good news is, you don't have to figure out how. I've done that part for you. That's why I built Vibrant Mama Collective . And that’s why I deliver gifts that show up for you automatically every month. Simple, easy, and designed to help you build a vibrant life! SO, THE BIG QUESTION... Is this for me? ✦ This IS for you if: You feel like a mix of gentle and silly and deep and chaotic, and you're tired of trying to fit into one neat box. You want something low-lift that still feels special. You're ready to stop being last on your own list, and you want to finally feel like yourself again. ✦ This isn't for you If you're looking for a coaching membership, a community to network in, or daily accountability calls, this isn't that. This is quiet, personal, and entirely yours. And it's meant to fit into your small pockets of time. Yes, I Want This for Me! GOOD THINGS TO KNOW Questions? I've got you. How is this delivered? Everything lands straight in your inbox. Four emails a month, every Sunday morning, plus a seasonal guide four times a year. No platform to learn, no community to keep up with. What if I fall behind? Each email is self-contained and usable whenever you're ready. There's no falling behind here, and no guilt either. Is this only for mamas with young kids?

Can I cancel anytime? Yes, always. No hoops, no guilt. When you feel good, everything else gets better too. That's what this is for.

Yes, I want this for me! $37/month or $370/year · Cancel anytime

THE HEARTFUL CANVAS ✦ 15-DAY CHALLENGE REDISCOVER YOUR HAPPY 15 days to a more vibrant you A self-paced challenge for mamas who are ready to stop surviving and start actually living — in the beautiful, messy, full life they already have. Just $27 + lifetime access Yes, I want this! Instant access - Self-paced - Yours to keep forever SOUND FAMILIAR? You want to get your happy back. But right now it feels impossible — because there's just so much weighing on you that you can't control. The house, the family, everything happening in the world, your friendships, your own needs constantly getting pushed to the bottom of the list. You're in constant reaction mode, and it's leaving you depleted, exhausted, and honestly? A little hopeless. Like you can't even see a way to make it change. It wasn't even anything big. Maybe it was the way you snapped at your toddler's whining, or that nagging feeling that you're not showing up for the people you love the way you want to. Maybe it was just desperately needing five minutes of quiet and not being able to find them anywhere. And then the tears came. You don't want to keep living like this. You know the life you have is beautiful — you just want to actually feel that. To feel good. To feel like yourself again. To wake up and genuinely love the life you're living. Your happy isn't gone. It's just waiting to be rediscovered. IS THIS FOR YOU? You're in the right place if... ✦ This IS for you You still have an ember of hope — the one that knows something needs to change and is willing to do the small, simple work to make it happen. You're not looking for magic. You're looking for a framework. You bring the willingness, and we'll find your happy together. ✦ This isn't for you If you're already on cloud nine — hi, we love you, but you don't need this! And if you're so convinced your life is miserable that nothing could touch it, this challenge won't be the right fit either. This work requires at least that ember of hope. A DAY IN YOUR LIFE Let me guess how your Tuesday goes. You wake up already behind. The to-do list is running through your head before your feet even hit the floor, after a night that was definitely not long enough, because your little one had other plans for 5am. You shuffle through the morning — getting everyone ready, rushing through your own routine. (Did you put deodorant on? You'll wonder about that at 2pm.) You manage your way through the morning activities, but the whining grates on you more than it should, and when naptime finally arrives... you exhale. Fully. And then feel a little guilty when you hear them stirring again, because honestly? You could've used another hour. Survival mode carries you to dinner. You're counting down until your partner gets home so you're not the only one holding everything. And in the in-between moments, you're doomscrolling — which doesn't help, but at least it's something that's just for you. You stay up too late trying to finally get something done, or just to feel like a person again. And then the alarm goes off. And it starts all over. You don't want to keep living like this. You know the life you have is beautiful — you just want to actually feel that. To feel good. To feel like yourself again. To wake up and genuinely love the life you're living. HERE'S WHAT CHANGES EVERYTHING You have more control than you think. It's so easy to feel overwhelmed and helpless when you look at everything on your plate — plus everything happening in the world around you. But here's the thing: you don't have to control it all. You just have to find what you can control — and start there. Because when you shift your perspective, when you pull yourself out of the anxiety spiral and into action, something starts to move. It's not a magic wand. Your toddler will still whine. The world will still be a lot. But the way you show up — for your kids, for the people you love, for yourself — that starts to feel different. Better. More like you. You go from reactive to proactive. From depleted to empowered. And even on the hard days, you'll know you're doing what you can — and that makes all the difference. WHAT WE COVER 15 days. 3 big shifts. Each step builds on the last. By the end, you won't just know this stuff — you'll have started living it. SHIFT #1: Days 1-5 Recognize Your Agency It's so easy to feel overwhelmed and helpless when you look at everything on your plate and everything happening in the world around you. But you have more control than you realize. Every single day, you are already making choices that shape your path. When you start to recognize that — really recognize it — the anxiety and helplessness start to lose their grip. SHIFT #2: Days 6-10 Choosing what's Positive Our brains are wired for negativity. They cling to it, seek it out, replay it. It's not a character flaw — it's just how we're built. But no matter how hard things are, there is always something positive to find. We just have to train ourselves to notice it. In this step, we practice intentionally choosing where to focus — and start rewiring the default. SHIFT #3: Days 11-15 Shifting from Reactive to Proactive Everything feels harder when you're in constant reaction mode. In this step, we break that cycle. By making intentional choices about your time, your priorities, and what you're saying yes (and no) to, you stop feeling swamped and start feeling like you're actually moving forward. This is where it all comes together — and where you start to feel like you're living your life instead of just surviving it. INSIDE THE CHALLENGE Simple. Doable. Effective. This is not the challenge that dumps a mountain of content on you and leaves you more overwhelmed than when you started. It's designed to fit into your real life. Short, meaningful prompts delivered one day at a time — easy to work through in a quiet moment (naptime counts). Daily Prompts Each daily prompt is short enough to actually finish. No guilt if life happens — just pick back up when you can. 15 minutes or less Weekly reflection emails that arrive automatically — gentle nudges to keep you moving and celebrating your progress. Accountability check-ins Yours to keep forever. Come back whenever you need a reset — because we all do sometimes. Lifetime access AFTER 15 DAYS This is what different feels like. EMPOWERED You'll feel genuinely capable of making simple changes that have a real impact — not in a cheesy, motivational-poster way. In a tangible, "I can actually do this" way. HOPEFUL You'll truly believe your happy is findable again. Because you'll have already started finding it. CLEAR You'll have clarity on what actually matters to you. What you want to say yes to, and what you're ready to let go of. REWIRED You'll have started actually training your brain toward positivity. Not pretending everything is fine. Actually shifting the default. ACCOUNTABLE You'll stop looking around at everything and everyone else as the reason you're unhappy — and start owning the power you have to change how you feel. IN CONTROL You'll feel in control of your own life — your choices, your energy, your reactions — even when everything else is chaotic. AHEAD You'll have a real plan for getting ahead of the chaos — so you're not constantly spinning on the hamster wheel. HI, I'M JESSICA I've been there too. More times than I can count — in that depleted, reactive, what-is-happening-to-me place. And I can tell you from the other side: it feels so much better to live an empowered, happy, vibrant life. So much better. I don't think that feeling is reserved for a lucky few. I think every mama deserves it. And I know that when we feel better, it doesn't just stay with us — it ripples out. To our kids, our partners, our families, our friends. The way we show up when we're grounded and present and genuinely happy is night and day from the way we show up when we're running on empty. There will always be things that shake it. That's just life. But when you know how to return to yourself — that's everything. That's what this challenge is about. GOOD THINGS TO KNOW Questions? I've got you. Is this live, or can I go at my own pace? Fully self-paced. New prompts unlock each day on the schedule, but you have lifetime access — so if life happens and you miss a day (or a week), just pick back up whenever you're ready. No guilt here. How much time will this take each day? 15 minutes or less. The daily prompts are designed to be short and doable — this is meant to fit into your real life, not add to the overwhelm. Naptime, school pickup line, after the kids are in bed — it all counts. I've tried things like this before and not followed through. Will this be different? That story of "I don't have time" or "this won't work for me" — we actually tackle that head-on in Step 1. You're not broken. You just haven't had the right framework yet. The 15-day format is intentional: long enough to actually build habits, short enough to feel achievable. Is this only for mamas with young kids? The language and examples are written with mamas in mind, but the concepts are universal. If you're a woman navigating a full, busy life and wanting more joy in the everyday — you're welcome here. What does $27 get me? Lifetime access to all 15 days of daily prompts plus weekly accountability check-in emails. No subscription, no recurring charge. Pay once, keep it forever. READY? Your happy is in there. Let's go find it. 🌻 Even if you don't feel ready. Even if part of you is worried it won't work, or that your happy is too far gone to find. If there's even a flicker of wanting things to feel different — this challenge is for you. You're not doing this alone. I'm leading you through every single step, and I am genuinely, wholeheartedly cheering you on. Because I truly want this for you. I want every mama to find her happy again. All you have to do is say yes — and I'll help you from there. 🤍 Join the Challenge for $27 Lifetime access - Self-paced - Yours to keep forever

Free Creative Design Challenge March 9 - March 11 A free 3-day design challenge to cultivate your creativity, generate new design ideas, and connect with fellow designers Sign Me Up! This Design Challenge is for you if: You enjoy the creative process You're interested in expanding your creativity in new ways You struggle to generate new & unique design ideas that you love Inside, you will receive: daily creative design prompts tips for cultivating your creativity beyond this challenge access to live calls (and replays) where we work through the prompts and share ideas It is also for you if... You're tired of using the same ideas over and over again, struggling to create new design ideas, or out of touch with your creativity in general. The unique design prompts inside this challenge will help you reframe your creative process and generate ideas without pressure for it to be perfect. Creativity that's unique to you. Oh hi there! I'm Jessica, the knitting pattern designer behind Snickerdoodle Knits and facilitator of the Design Circle. I design knitting patterns and mentor budding pattern designers. My college degree is in Architectural Engineering; and I worked in architecture, construction management, and interior design before discovering my passion for designing patterns and mentoring pattern designers. I love DK weight yarn and create designs that share the relatable stories of living. And this is my co-host, Beth. Beth is the crochet designer, tech editor, architectural designer, and mama behind Fig & Filament. She firmly believes that the creative brain is a muscle that can be targeted and developed like any other as she’s spent the last decade doing just that, both personally and professionally. She appreciates the details of a well designed artifact, whether that's a building, a work of yarn, or still a figment of imagination. From engineering to architecture to pattern designing, we have a combined 10 years of formal design training and 8 years of practical design experience. We invite you to join the free Design Challenge. Inside you will find a warm, welcoming designer community that encourages you to be your best self, love your designs, value your accomplishments, and unleash your unique creative journey. Join the Free Challenge How It Works The Design Challenge encourages you to develop at least one design idea per day based on a given prompt that will make you think "outside the box." These aren’t your typical design prompts. You won’t receive any prompts that tell you what to design, or even what kinds of shapes or techniques to use in your design. Instead, the design prompts give you inspiration from things, places, people, concepts, and emotions that are familiar to you. You won’t immediately have a design idea. Instead, you’ll be led on a creative thought journey, guided by your brain’s response to the prompt, which often seems entirely unrelated to knit and crochet pattern designing. The process to create your design idea takes about 30 minutes in total and will occur during the daily video calls. Here's what folks say about the design challenge: So. Much. Fun. AND I've got several legit ideas I will be using! I didn't quite get the chance to do all of them but I have the ones I didn't get to saved to work through later. Can't wait for the next one!! Trish I’ve worked my way through a few series of creativity prompts with Jessica now, both in the Design Circle and as part of 52 Weeks of Creativity. I love the intentionality of setting aside a small block of time for design on whatever day I approach them. The prompts are great too, but a little guidance while establishing the mindset that it’s worth making time for yourself to just sit and be creative - with no deadlines, goals or pressure - is irreplaceable. Beth (yes, that's my co-host!) I participated in Creativity Burst for the 1st time. It was very interesting, fun, and unusual for me, and definitely different from my routine of creating design ideas. After a week of prompts, I got 5 solid ideas that I plan to convert to patterns. If you have never done it before, it's worth the try to look at the creative process from a different angle. Natalia I had so much fun thinking outside of my typical 'box.' I found it really interesting to pay attention to my thought process, and then identify ideas that fit me/my brand - and ideas that don't fit my brand. The problem is I now have a few design ideas I really love... and I already have all my pattern spots filled for the next 2 years. I might have to do some rearranging... Jessica (yes, that's me!) Join the Free Challenge Now FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Can I join even if I'm not a designer (yet)? A: Absolutely! The Design Challenge will be a great opportunity to explore design ideas without needing to know "how" the design would come to life. The Design Challenge prompts are applicable to any creative interested in generating new ideas! Q: I am a crochet pattern designer. May I join the Design Challenge? A: Yes, please join us! The principles for creativity and design are the same for knitting and crochet. Q: What happens after I sign up? When will I have access to the Design Challenge? A: After joining the free Design Challenge, you will receive an email from me confirming that you're signed up for the challenge. In that email, you will receive the call schedule for the challenge. The Design Challenge, including the prompts and live calls, will begin Thursday, March 9. You will receive the design prompts and are welcome to exchange design ideas on the live calls. If you are unable to attend the calls live, replays and prompts will be available for a limited time. Join the Free Challenge Privacy Policy Terms & Conditions Disclaimer © Snickerdoodle Knits 2023

I love the intentionality of setting aside a small block of time for design on whatever day I approach them. The prompts are great too, but a little guidance while establishing the mindset that it’s worth making time for yourself to just sit and be creative - with no deadlines, goals or pressure - is irreplaceable. Beth I participated in Creativity Burst for the 1st time. It was very interesting, fun, and unusual for me, and definitely different from my routine of creating design ideas. After a week of prompts, I got 5 solid ideas that I plan to convert to patterns. If you have never done it before, it's worth the try to look at the creative process from a different angle. Natalia I had so much fun thinking outside of my typical 'box.' I found it really interesting to pay attention to my thought process, and then identify ideas that fit me/my brand - and ideas that don't fit my brand. The problem is I now have a few design ideas I really love... and I already have all my pattern spots filled for the next 2 years. I might have to do some rearranging... Jessica (yes, that's me!) I loved the Creativity Burst Challenge so much that I wanted to make the prompts available to more people and in a more consistent format... and that is how 52 Weeks of Creativity was born! Now, I'm delighted to have many more happy designers enjoying this process. Here's what folks are saying about 52 Weeks of Creativity: The 52 Weeks of Creativity has been a delight! That bit of inspiration coming through my inbox each week has been a wonderful reminder to tap into my creative spirit in such a fun and unique way. Jill Tamminen from Knit Sisu 52 Weeks of Creativity is a fabulous way to bring your designs to the next level. No matter what level you start at, or whether thinking of designs is easy or difficult. Each email includes a prompt whether words, pictures, or ideas, and then you get to take it where you want to. Sometimes I would see a prompt and immediately think, that's not going to inspire me. But I was wrong Every Single Time. Sitting with an idea and letting your creativity take over is so thrilling. I can't wait to flush out and publish designs that were inspired through the 52 Weeks of Creativity! Lois of OzzyLosi Knit Designs While I enjoyed the process itself and appreciated the idea generation that came with it, the biggest benefit to me was completely unexpected. As an introvert, I find it difficult with strangers to find the right amount of storytelling that balances a comfortable amount of vulnerability - neither sterile nor oversharing. This challenge brought many stories to mind that I feel are worth sharing, and clearly outlining my thought path of key words really helped crystallize the stories into digestible but coherent and authentic content that I can use moving forward. Jessica Marks Creativity Challenge participant Oh hi there! I'm Jessica, the knitting pattern designer behind Snickerdoodle Knits and facilitator of the Design Circle. I design knitting patterns and mentor budding pattern designers. My college degree is in Architectural Engineering; and I worked in architecture, construction management, and interior design before discovering my passion for designing patterns and mentoring pattern designers. I love DK weight yarn and create designs that share the relatable stories of living. And I invite you to join me for 52 Weeks of Creativity. What Will You Receive? One prompt delivered every week for the next 52 weeks (well, and we might've slipped in a few pieces of bonus content with tips and tricks for pattern designing) via your course portal with Full Circle Entrepreneurship. Inside the course you will receive: The weekly creative design prompt My signature Creative Thought Journey process Quarterly bonus content Get Creative for just $21 Additional Details On What's Inside WHAT TO EXPECT The 52 Weeks of Creativity design prompts are not the kind of prompts you’d typically expect to see in a call for submissions. Instead, the prompts are open-ended and may seem completely unrelated to pattern designing. I've done that intentionally. While a magazine wants their submissions to come together as a cohesive whole, I want your design ideas to be completely unique to you and your experiences. The design prompts will give you inspiration from things, places, people, concepts, and emotions you probably don't use as a source of inspiration. THE FORMAT You will receive one prompt per week for 52 weeks, delivered via a course in ThriveCart. The design prompts are typically formatted as one statement, photo, or video. They intentionally don’t start with “Create a design that…” because I want you to travel on an idea journey that leads you to your design(s); I don’t want the design idea to be the first step. Are you ready to unlock new levels of pattern design creativity? Join Now FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Is it $21 for the full 52 weeks? A: Yep, just (1) one-time payment of $21! No strings attached. No monthly payments. Q: What if I'm new to designing? A: That is completely fine! You don't need to know anything about how to make the idea work in order to have ideas. And 52 Weeks of Creativity is all about the ideas! It's even possible that some makers would join just to exercise their creativity and without any intention of creating any designs (although they might fall in love with their ideas so much that they change their mind...). Q: What if I can't complete one design idea per week? A: No worries. There's no rush and no competition. However, I recommend spending just 20-30 minutes on a prompt, so you can probably find time in most weeks! And if not, you'll have access to the propmts to refer to when you do have time. Q: Who is 52 Weeks of Creativity for? A: 52 Weeks of Creativity is for the knit or crochet pattern design who is interested in creating designs from a place of creativity that is unique to themselves. It's for the designer who wants to have fun, is willing to let go of expectations of what the idea process should look like Q: What happens after I sign up? When will I have access to prompts? A: As soon as you sign up, you will receive access to the "course" on Thrivecart. You will receive an email confirmation of your payment as well as the link to the course. When you log into the course, you will have instant access to allllll the welcome goodies, including your first (bonus) prompt! After that, you'll receive access to a new prompt every 7 days.
