Another one.
Red Heart with Love (worsted weight) in Mango,unknown acrylic yarn in a bright green using Drops Extra pattern 0-966.
Since the with Love yarn is worsted and the pattern calls for a DK weight, I used size 5 (US) needles on this hat and made it a bit larger using the 90 stitch directions even though the first hat I made followed the 96 stitch directions. The larger needles and fewer stitches resulted in a larger hat.
Two down, one more to go!
Red Heart with Love (worsted weight) in Mango, Lion Brand Wool-eze in Forest green using Drops Extra pattern 0-966.
One down, more to grow, er, go.
The inside reminds me of a poppy!

First of all….those look VERY complicated to even think about doing. You are excellent at your craft. Those mitts should be worth about 80$ or more if someone were to purchase them.!!!
I do it all the time. Well, when someone asks me to knit something for them and then asks how much I would charge.
I had no problem coming up with a price for a crocheted item a friend of mine made for someone else. She asked me for my opinion and said with the time invested and cost of the yarn, I wouldn’t charge less than $35. And she did. And the person paid the price.
A friend commissioned me to make the Drinkers Mitts for her and I gave her a price. A very low price. It’s not high enough for the amount of work involved but I felt bad charging what I would charge a complete stranger.
Do you charge a flat fee? Do you use some type of formula to come up with a price? Or do you sell yourself short?
