Yarn Buyers!
Mar. 9th, 2010 11:42 amI'm trying to put together a price list for my yarns. I'm still kind of new at spinning, so for now I'm (I think) low balling the prices a little because it's sellable but not as perfect as it will be in say another three months. Perhaps then I will raise prices. Does this sound about right to you? All my yarns I'm selling are made from Blue Face Leicester sheep, it's two ply, drop spindle, hand spun.
I think I mismeasured how many yarns are in my four ounces, but maybe not. I want to say 25 yards-ish depending? But I could have totally fucked that up, I'll be remeasuring. I think 50 yards-ish would be more accurate, looking over some other yarns. Unless I am spinning that thick? But I don't think so.
Pricing
$10 - 4 oz plain yarn
$12 - 4 oz dyed yarn (earlier experiments are with kool aid, now I use acid dye. I would note in my description which was which)
$15 - 4 oz dyed yarn with 15% fair trade recycled silk sari thread
$20 - 4 oz dyed yarn with 15% glitz
$30 - 4 oz dyed yarn with approx fifty 3mm AB swarovski beads
$35 - 4 oz angora yarn
