190 Leatherworking...STUCK! ; ;Follow

I recently just hit 40 Hunter and i find it embarrassing that Im still below the 200 mark for leatherworking. All the recipes I have all require hard items to get / expensive to level up on...

Is it ok to buy materials for leveling your craft?( I dont really like spending money, try to conserve). I already got my mount so thats not a problem with money but...

All you leatherworkers, what do you do to get passed 190+?

You just need to get some patterns that will level you up. I was stuck at 190, I went to Darnassus(to the leatherworking trainer) and he gave me a few patterns. I used them to level up past 200, then I had a bunch of patterns banked that I could use to level up from there.

Just grind to 200, then you can get the thick armor kit and thick hide recipes. Those two can get you to above 225 with little trouble. Make sure to visit the trainer in Darnassus with extra leather so you can get some other recipes from him at the same time while skilling up with the thick leather.
