RE: NeedleWorkMonday - My Homesteaders Co-op Marketplace Sneak Peek Inventory!

I love your idea although for me all the business things would be frightening. I will cross my fingers that you will get the shop set up and sell many beautiful things. I am curious to see your price calculation, as I often find this the hardest part (clothes are super cheap here and easily available, I find it hard to place handmade items in this market without selling under price)
With the items you want to sell: I looove the egg apron. Especially the uppermost color (no idea how its called) and the nude shade are so beautiful together and the multicoloured border pulls everything together. The idea to insert an additional cellphone pocket is superb. The other idea, to sell baby clothes is also a very good one (in my opinion) as tiny clothes are always adorable and make beautiful gifts. I can also imagine crocheted socks, as knitted socks sell very good here. So, why not make crochet socks or slippers.They are fast to make, very useful and do not need too much yarn. But I guess you are not in need of ideas :-D You already made so many post about your wonderful crochet garments and accessories. I am looking forward to hear more about the development of your shop – fascinating topic.

I definitely understand that. Part of the reason it’s taken me so long is because I had fears of selling online. What really encouraged me to move forward was this initiative and seeing all of the beauty and fun of it. This is definitely a leap of faith I’m taking and a boat load of encouragement pills lol!! 😂
Very true about your pricing concern. My husband and I are discussing things as I prepare.
It does take a lot of time and work to make these items but at the same time I want my prices to be competitive and not overpriced. Definitely a matter we have to consider.
I’m so glad you love the egg apron! These are pretty hott on the market right now so I’ll be making several of them. I look forward to playing around with more color combos.
I love your idea of crocheted socks and slippers! Thank you! I am excited to keep you all posted as things develop! What an adventure I’m heading in!!!

As always I appreciate your support and friendship!! 😘🌼
