Setting up a business

We have just finished doing our Business Practice course and it was quite eye-opening.  There is so much to consider when setting up your own business.
Coincidentally, one of the students who graduated last year has just opened Urban Textile, focussing on machine knitting.  Her site looks great.
Maybe I could be tempted to have another go at knitting, her workshops look interesting.  It would be great to do workshops that don't get assessed, that don't have short (seeming) timelines and the stress of trying to pass a subject.
Good luck Leeana.

Wow, that sounds like an awesome subject! We cover setting up a tapestry studio in about year 5, from memory :)

Yes Michelle, it was interesting - sometimes it was overwhelming, thinking about all the things you need to be aware of. We used a template from the internet and just deleted the bits that weren't relevant. It was at www.innovic.com.au
