My father made me show this to a friend of his. She promptly said "You should sell these."
What the fuck is wrong with people?
Yarn ~$100. Can't remember how much for the pattern. Hours? Untold. Bite me. Cold dead hands. Though actually they would be warm hands because this shawl is a beast.

@justmichelle The problem is, that people who say "you should sell that" actually mean well, they mean it as a compliment. They don't understand that it is an insult to the universe to imply that something only has value if it can make you money; that money is the only valid measure of worth.

I've had people offer $40 for an Anna Victoria shawl. (Heavily beaded, complex lace.) That doesn't even cover materials. -

They are too used to things which are made in factories or sweatshops to even begin to fathom the value of handmade things. Not unless they are a maker themselves. -

They don't think. PIcking the pattern. Deciding on the colors. Shopping for the yarn/fabric/whatever medium you use. Planning the design if multiple colors are involved. Layout. Execution. More execution. And more.
I quilt. A lady offered me $80 for a custom twin size piece. I laughed in her face. I spent more than that on the FABRIC. They're so used to cheap crap they can't think clearly.
