Well, everyone tells me I should sell some of my hand knitted things that I make and seeing as I need money, I've decided to.
What should I make? I don't want anything too big because I'd just probably get bored and mess it up. I've thought of headbands, wrist warmers, hats, and dog treat pouches. I thought of making dog collars but only for small dogs since I'd be afraid a large, strong dog would be capable of breaking it. Here's a headband I made pretty quickly the other night

I would be most interested in cute accessories, such as what you made, or things for my dog like cute sweaters, etc.

I just thought, I made a nice bed for my cat without a pattern.
Something like this probably takes me 3 hours while watching a movie or listening to an audiobook. How much do you think I should sell them fore?

And I've just thought of another, a cover for your cups or cans that has a handle. Do you think people'd buy that?

The headband looks great and I love the cat bed! As for how much to charge I really have no idea. I will say that in the winter my sister makes and sells scarves she crochets. She works at a day spa and she sells her scarves in the little shop at the day spa. She sells them for $25- $35 each. She actually seems to sell more of the $35 ones as they are fancier and people just couldn't resist them.

Good Luck!

LOVE the headband.

Instead of collars, what about collar covers? That way you wouldn't have to worry about them breaking.

Or what about bandannas? Not sure if that would work or not? Might be cute though :D

Good idea. I'll try some covers this week and see how they come out. I was also thinking about people bandannas but maybe I'll make one for Niņo just to see how it goes.

How about catnip "bags" ? Little pouches filled with catnip. :)

That's a good idea too. Maybe I could make them fishy shaped.
