    pricing

    I have crochet baby dresses and made separate skirted lining. How do I determine my pricing?

    That's a difficult question for me. There is so much time and effort, plus the expense of yarn, that goes into crochet projects. It seems to me that many prices are set so low that it's almost not worth me even attempting to sell my items. I suggest you check out Etsy.com and see what others list their baby items for.

    Good luck!

    Hello and welcome to the crochet forum! We are glad you are here with us!

    Many members charge double the pricing of the yarn when selling items as a standard. Some will charge a little more and some a little less.

    Hello welcome to the forum. I was told that the cost of the yarn times five. But it is the work that goes into it. I made text mitts and sold them for $20. It goes accordingly. Crafty things are appreciated and people will buy. Good luck!
