OUR MAKER LIFE OFFERS CREATIVE CONNECTION FOR EVERY MAKER
We’re in our glow up era to support knitters & crocheters IRL and online.
Brand Camp is our new fresh focus with classic ‘for makers by makers’ movement energy.
Our 2025 event is where warm community meets big business ambition.
We’re coming together to build bold, brilliant brands in the best way.
What began as “for makers, by makers” has grown into a vibrant celebration of real-life connection, fiber passion, and brand-building.
OML is a home for fiber artists, business owners, pattern designers, yarn dyers, industry leaders, content creators, and influencers all joining in a supportive and cozy community with the drive to create and elevate.
MEET UP WITH FELLOW MAKERS &
WORK ON THE BEST OF YOUR BRAND
MORNING SESSION: RISE & SHINE
In the first session of the day, we’ll dig into the biggest challenges and hurdles standing in the way of our success. With the OML team’s guidance, you’ll dive into all the elements that build out a business: Branding, Photography, Marketing, Product, Financial and more. You’ll identify where you excel, where you need help, and evaluate all the numbers and data you’ve already collected.
AFTERNOON SESSION: GLOW UP
Are you ready for your glow up? Taking the data we’ve gathered in our first session, we’ll regroup and tackle the next phase: overcoming challenges and realizing your dreams. Identify your skill set and get your business fully evaluated by industry experts before building a comprehensive plan to keep moving forward and achieving your dreams.
Our Maker Life was built on one belief: that creativity is more meaningful when it’s shared. Whether we’re gathered around yarn in person or cheering each other on online, community is at the heart of what we do.
— Jewell Washington, Founder
We love meeting up IRL — and online too.
The Circle is our fun inclusive online community where makers stay connected, inspired, and supported all year long. It’s a simple, low-cost membership, and the first two weeks to join are on us.
