Selling Crochet

Published by raesmom at 8:03 pm under General Edit This

I have a ton of yarn in my stash that needs to be thinned out. I just can’t bear to sell it or give it away.  So what am I to do but to make some crochet items?

This week I’m selling at a consignment sale for kids’s clothing and other items that has me wondering what can I put in the next sale. There are several toys which makes me wonder how well amigurumi might sell at the event.

It may not sell at all but at least it will give me a reason to make my favorite crochet craft. Also I’m going to create my own patterns so that I don’t have to worry if I can sell what I make from a pattern, etc.

I think I will make amigurumis that favor local high school mascots since that might generate some interest in them. If I can’t sell them there then I can always try Etsy or just give them away here.

When I’m working on a project, making an amigurumi is a great break from it and a way to feel accomplished since I can usually do one an evening. Sometimes I won’t make one if I don’t have a purpose for it. The consignment sale will give me a reason and possibly a little extra cash for even more yarn,
