Pricing crochet, answered

How much should I charge for crochet items?

Honestly? More than the market often pays — crochet can't be machined, so labor dominates: 2.5 hours at even $15/hr is $37.50 before yarn. This calculator shows the honest number; many makers use it to decide which patterns are WORTH selling (small, quick items) versus commission-only.

Why does my crochet price look so high?

Because handmade time is the product. If the honest price won't sell, the fix is faster patterns or bulkier yarn — not working for $3/hr.
