Here is a picture of the slippers. These are my daughters and she wanted one pink and one purple. She has also worn these around the yard/neighborhood/etc so they have held up! :lol: Once her teenage friends saw them they all wanted a pair! I will also say they are so comfortable.

How about 'Warm Fuzzies 4 You?' :D

 

Your prices look a little low, BTW ... unless you've got a really great, inexpensive source for yarns, you're not going to realize much of a profit once you figure in your time.

 

I wish you well - you've certainly picked the right time of year for this type of business! :)

Nice name...you guys are making this difficult :lol:

I know you are right about the profit margin but I have always donated these items to charities. I figure for now everyone else is in the same boat as me, wanting to give nice gifts but may not have the money. I may after the holidays go up on the prices some but only once I have talked to the shelter about doing a 10% from every sale to the shelter. I am hoping to help my family financially but Im a giver, cant help it.

 

 

Riograce is right you are all getting a bargin with these prices but I will be going straight to the santa shop with the money I raise! so its a win/win for us all. :)

2 pair size 7 black if you can do half sizes do one a seven and a half.

 

One more thing from business owner to another and friend to friend.

don't take on to much at one time and get burned out on your hobbie ,then it won't be a hobbie anymore or be any fun to do.

Besides you have to much that I see I like and will want.

If you can't get them tomorrow , don't worry about it, just let me know you do.

*Great* advice! :)

 

Here's another bit of advice for you, that might make your items more unique: use different kinds of yarns. Just about everyone uses the standard acrylics, so try using some wools and silks. They're pricier, but IMO, they serve their purpose better - I love my felted woolen bedsocks and mitts!

So can you do the half sizes.

 

The slippers are probably more of a small/medium/large but my daughter and I both wear a 7 so I should be able to adjust the pattern for the 7 1/2. Hope that makes sense. lol

 

 

Stitches of Love 4 you.

 

another good one!

Im feeling much better! Tona, your slippers should be done in the next couple hours. Actually Im done with one pair and one of the other but I ran out of yarn and literally have one row left on the last one. dang I just hate that. lol :lol: I will also have camochicks gloves done this evening and then I will be moving on to scarletindulgences slippers.
