I had to gently explain that while I<br \/>\nenjoy knitting the odd present for people I don&#8217;t do commissions. I<br \/>\nlike her but I don&#8217;t want to fall into the trap of having to knit<br \/>\nthings for people.\n<\/p>\n<p>My place of work isn&#8217;t in the centre of the city so quite often people<br \/>\nare booked from various stores etc. to sell things in the foyer. Today<br \/>\napparently someone had been selling knitwear because another colleague<br \/>\ntold me that she&#8217;d seen them selling eyelash scarves for \u00c2\u00a325. She suggested that<br \/>\nI could make money knitting them as a sideline. I had to do more gentle<br \/>\nexplaining, in that it takes me a week to knit a scarf so it was hardly<br \/>\na money spinner.\n<\/p>\n<p>Someone at work posted an email today, after the knitwear stand had<br \/>\nbeen and gone, offering their services for anyone who wanted things<br \/>\nhandknit but at a cheaper price than the stall. It was handy in that I<br \/>\ncould refer my scarf seeking friend to them but it does make me wonder<br \/>\nwhy someone would price their work so low. I don&#8217;t think some people<br \/>\nrealise the value of their work.<\/p>\n<p><center>&nbsp;<\/center><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A little later than I&#8217;d planned but here&#8217;s the inside scoop on the contents of my SP3 parcel!
