Selling Crochet

Aug 19, 2006 5 Replies

Hello,



I was just wondering if anyone knew of a great place for me to sell my crochet work? I'm trying to make a little extra cash and I have been working on a couple of afghans and scarves.



let me know!



Thanks



There's two options that I can think of:

  1. eBay. No guarantees you'll get what you deserve for your work.
  2. Consignment shops, locally. You might get more, but I don't know for sure. If you go to a consignment shop for children's clothing and baby items especially with baby afghans, you might come out ahead. Not everyone has a sweet aunt or grandmother to crochet for their wee ones, and they love a handmade item!

I have seen crochet work for sale recently on two occasions, both times for charity events. The prices were shockingly low, for very high quality work. I imagine that the crocheters would not have been willing to sell their work for such low prices, but were willing to donate it to charity.

I live in Italy; things may be different where you live.

I haven't sold on there myself but have you seen
