Are there crochet-related jobs?

I was wondering where I can search for crochet-related design jobs. Does anyone know?

check out different publications websites here are a couple

crochetme.com (it is purely free submissions though)

there are also publishers that are looking for submissions for books, but you really wont make much money with that until you have established your name in the pattern writting world. goodluck

A friend of mine here in Phoenix got a job with a company that makes machine-knitted sweaters and jackets for boutiques around the world. She crochets on finished edges and also pieces together the arms to the bodies. The finished jackets retail for $1000! She loves it, but it does take away from her personal project time. Give and take....
