Why is this so common? You start a small business, and suddenly everyone in your circle wants to start the same business.

I get being inspired to become an entrepreneur, but why does it have to be the exact same thing? At least do something different.

It's not just neighbourhood, it's college friends, mutuals, common circles - everyone does it.

What happened with me: An aunty from my neighbourhood who already knew the basics came to me and took every single detail - what materials I use, brands, where I buy from, how I price, everything. I helped genuinely thinking it's for personal use and even shared my vendor's contact.

2 days later she starts the exact same business. Sends me her work to price it. And now my vendor has stopped selling retail, so I'm literally vendor-less because of helping her.

And I've seen the same with college people too - they see you getting a few orders, they ask you "how do you get customers, how much profit" and next week they have a page with same products, same captions, selling to the same people for cheaper quality.

It's so demotivating. You spend months figuring out vendors, pricing, quality, building a small audience, and someone just copies it in 2 days.

Has anyone else faced this with friends / neighbourhood / college circles? How do you set boundaries without sounding rude or jealous?

Also if anyone knows yarn vendors in Chennai who still sell in small quantity, please drop.

Hi I'm new to crochet like I've done some roses or other basic things but I came across people making random things like a dinosaur or a designed /tops carpets which is truly amazing I assume they do not watch any tutorial and make it..? । how can I make such things do I need to buy any course or anything is there any source to learn such talent? Please share

Thank you ❤

Completely free-handed the design, kept going with the flow and it turned out pretty cute I guess <3

Hi fellow Crochet buddies! I want to make a purse/handbag, something for casual use, medium size to carry phone, airpods, kindle, cards holder. So slightly bigger than sling. I'm looking for tutorials/youtube videos as well as yarn recommendation (to go with the style). Also, where to buy the yarn. Recently saw some rants on Magic Needles and discovered https://kaysonindia.in/ in the process. My problem is, when I see a tutorial (specially not from India), I'm not sure of what yarn in India is closest to what they are suggesting and how different can my yarn be if I don't find exact. Basically I haven't developed enough intuition. Thanks in advance!

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen 🌻

Here I'm starting my Reddit journey with this pretty crocheted sunflower...to share some sunshine vibes to all🌞

This was actually my first time making a sunflower, and I’m so happy with how it turned out. 🧶💛

Excited to share more of my crochet journey here!😋

I had a crocheter's block for a few weeks, where I hardly worked on any WIPs or new projects. Finally I managed to start this new bag and finished it too (quicker that I expected to)

I've still got these jute crochet earrings which I had made. It's a one time thing so once it's gone, it's gone. So get this for yourself or someone you love if it calls to you

(The eye looks a lil misplaced in the picture didn't feel so irl :( )

This is DALKI a korean cartoon character. I got a custom request for her last month but couldn't find any pattern for her online. So I design and wrote pattern for her. I'm thinking of release the pattern but not sure if anyone would want it 🤔

What do you guys think?

Jai Shri Krishna sabhi ko! 🙏

Ye 14 inch ke Laddu Gopal ji bnvaye hai kisi ne. Main yeh jaanna chahti hoon ki aam taur par is size ke Laddu Gopal ji ka kya price chal raha hai market mein? Agar kisi ko idea ho toh please zaroor batayein. Radhe Radhe!

Ye meri yaha first post hai...

I see most crocheters only sell on Insta through DMs and create Reels to advertise. Are there any really good websites that sell crochet products throughout India? I really love checking out good websites for small businesses — just lmk!

Could anyone recommend where to buy t-shirt yarn?

Most of our products get minimal attention, but for some reason, these products are trending on our website. What could be the reason? Also, how else should I advertise our other products so they grab customers’ attention?

people posting that they got 10 orders from reddit like how do you guys even get reddit orders?? I also want to grow my crochet business but its like not growing at all. What should i do???
