Pricing Nightmare
This weekend I am part of the Michigan Weavers Guild Holiday Sale. This is the first time I have attempted to sell any of my weaving. Pricing is a nightmare. Still working on how I will be pricing. I am sure you know that not only can you not get rich weaving, you cannot even pay the bills. My new goal is to make some money to buy more yarn. I did a calculation, price of yarn x number of hours (at minimum wage) x amount of commission charged by the center where the sale is. Not many will spend that for a scarf. So it is a good thing that I love to weave and enjoy making the items.
Here are two of the scarfs that will be for sale. I wove them a year or so ago. I will be adding more pictures to my blog I finish taking pictures of the items.
