@Insectra That's the trouble with hand-crafted goods. If I put a genuine price on the things I make that reflects the time and materials that have gone into them it would be impossible to sell anything. If people are going to make a living out of their craft, they have to put quite high prices, but apart from buying and selling, I always feel I get a lot of ideas for things I want to do myself when I go to fairs - not stealing people's ideas, but giving me nudges in various directions!

@Insectra I sell hand-knitted hats, sometimes made with commerical yarns and sometimes made with home-spun and dyed wools. I don't charge high prices but you would be horrified at the number of people who tell me they can get a knitted hat for half that price at whatever cheap shop they patronise.
