This is part of why I can't ever see myself selling my knitting.
People tell me all the time that "You could make a lot of money selling
that," but I'd have to pay myself under minimum wage to sell, unless I
got connected with an upscale boutique. Then, I'd hate to have to do
production work, and deadline work and deal with people who decide they
don't want it at the last minute. I'd rather give it away for free and
knit what I like for people I like than turn it into a job.
