Hi there, I totally agree with bluesuperted, I think your prices are too cheap excluding the cost of the wool, its working out about ?2.00p/h and I know from my mum knitting things that the time it takes to sew them up is not quick. Having done market stalls in my time and about to embark again!! if you sell a few one week, then the pressure is on to then make more to sell the following week, it soon gets quite tiring.

Good luck though, I love handknitted items although I have kept shrinking my mums in the wash which I have been feeling very guilty about.

They are fabulous Pickle !


I will also add - don't undercharge you must factor in the hours you are putting in, I make celebration cakes

and have figured out that although I quote different prices dependent on size funnily enough the same amount of

hours go into each creation because of the high level of decoration required.


Good luck with the stall and don't undercharge !

    • Greg came out at last minute notice to address a leak at the flat. He stayed for 90 mins to try and fix it but turned out it was a communal pipe. He was quick to write a report so we could get Southwark onto it. Great plumber, would recommend highly. 
    • My daughter, a single parent, has been let down by her children's' father, who was supposed to have them for part of the school holidays, So we are helping out. Our grand daughter aged 11 is no problem, but 9year old is more difficult to please. Has an interest in computers and coding, does not like crowds (neurodiverse)  Is keen n how things work and enjoys taking things apart. He is already going to the transport museum and has been to the science museum  Husband and I have some mobility problems so nothing too strenuous. have done Horniman's a number of times.  Is there any local holiday schemes where we can enrol him in for 2/3 days. There seems to be a number relating to singing/dancing and drama but nothing science/maths based. He does not have an interest in sport at the moment. Grand children live in Sussex and will be attending Holiday Clubs for a couple of weeks  
    • When I had a dead fox in my garden the council told me to put it in my wheelie bin, the green one.  I warned the dust bin men when they came that it was in there.They said they get worse than foxes put it!  Dead bodies!?  In the heat it might be better to bag it up first. Pam
