If that happened I would cost it out.
They'd probably be surprised though. Supermarkets make them much cheaper (of course).

I heard Limey talk to a jewellery maker on Arran about why she will not take commissions.
She will give gifts, but she cannot factor in her time, the wool and the expertise and still reach a reasonable price. She is far more talented at what she does than I am, but she does it for the same reason. She enjoys it, she can afford it, and her life is more fun because of it.

Of course I am going to flatter her unashamedly for a while because I expect her to make a complete layette for twin boys.















(that is very much a joke - although I expect a set when I get up the stick of course)
