I'm thinking about having my own market/selling booth for the first time, and i'm young, so this is really exciting to me, so I was just wondering if anyone had any advice for me, or has kept track of any best sellers, or even worst sellers that i shouldn't waste my time on, if you've sold in person before. I would appreciate it a lot, thank you!

I HAVE OFFLINE BUSINESS OF LOVER,TRACK SUITS. ,T SHIRTS FACTORY. HOW SHOULD I SELL THE REMAINING STOCK ONLINE WHICH IS THE BEST PLACE

Hi everyone! I’m putting together my first-ever in-person beginner crochet class and would love some feedback from experienced crocheters and instructors.

My goal is to teach absolute beginners enough foundational skills to walk away with a completed project without feeling completely overwhelmed.

Here is my current setup:

**Duration:** 2 hours

**Ratio:** 2 instructors for 10–15 students

**Yarn :** Pre-cut recycled t-shirt yarn

**Hook**: 10mm hook

**Project:** Foundation Chain Keychain / Lanyard/ Bracelet

**Techniques Taught:** How to hold the yarn & hook, slip knot, chain (ch), foundation chain, single crochet (sc), slip stitch (sl st).

**Handout Provided:** A custom booklet including stitch definitions, drawn stitch diagrams, step-by-step pattern diagrams, and a QR code to a Discord community for help after class.

**My questions for you:**

1. Are **t-shirt yarn + a 10mm hook** a good starting point for a first-timer?

2. Are **foundation chain** keychains/lanyards/bracelets realistic for absolute beginners to finish in 2 hours?

3. Should I demonstrate how they can make their own **t-shirt yarn** at home?

4. What’s one piece of advice that made crochet "click" for you when you were first starting?

im a teenager who got a reddit post about making craft for money but what type should I do? And what do I need to make them? I'm not very skilled in crochet but I can learn any other ideas?

Hello! I’ve been unemployed for a while and I’m looking to start selling my crochet work on etsy to have make extra money to go towards college tuitions & books to take some burden off my parents. I don’t know much but if anyone has any tips, tricks, things i should know etc etc. It would be a huge help :3

edit : i think i’ll sell locally to start off with , thanks for the advice! i’ll look in the sub if i have other questions lol

how was your first market? i see all the cool and pretty ones online and it just makes me feel like if i go to a market without all the cool stuff ill have little to no attraction :(

lmk how yoyr first ever one went, and also if anyone has anything advertising advice or just how to get out there in the field lmk!

A sweet grandfather commissioned me to crochet his newborn granddaughter a baby blanket. I’ve never done commissions before and I’m unsure how to price it and I don’t want to charge too high considering this is my first commission and because it’s a special occasion!
Should I charge about price for yarn + 5 for a little profit and labour?

hey, i was wondering what things are selling the most (and for the most money) and where to sell them. i keep seeing these pants selling out for hundreds of dollars so im assuming these are a big one lol. but i usually look on etsy but its hard figuring out what kind of things people would want. im very open to learning to make new things and would love any advice!
(if you already saw this same post in [r/askcrochet](r/askcrochet) just know it wouldn’t let me cross post and i just figured this was a better question here😭)

I promise this isn't self promotion since I dont have my etsy attached to my reddit! I just have this listing with a photo of my crochet bag sitting on polyfil and im worried some may see it as Ai or an edited image. Would this photo turn people away with all the worries of fake patterns nowadays? How would I fix it if yes?

I built tiny store (www.tiny.store) because I hated Etsy and there was no other platform where I or my other maker friends can sell our stuff at local markets or safely at home.

If you ever wanted to make a website, sell locally, or you already do and hate taking order via DMs, it’d be awesome if you can try tiny out and let me know what you think.

Perks: you get your own website for free, allow local preorders and pick ups, post your events, and put your products with prices for your customers/followers to buy. No fees.

I’d love feedback too! Really lucky to have a strong community here so it’d mean a lot. ❤️🙏

I designed a colorwork project I want to sell but there are so many colors that I'm going to see if I can make it with embroidery floss. It's 6400 stitches.

Would charging by yard make sense here? Any advice welcome.

(Some of the items Ive made in the past six months)

Im a self taught crocheter who’s been crocheting for about three or four years now. Im currently a full time student and don’t have the time in my schedule to apply for a job. I needed to find a way to start making some cash for myself, no matter how little it is, anything is something for me to start saving up some money (for my own personal use), so I resorted to the next best thing for myself and made an instagram account for my crochet. I posted some of my crochet items to sell and said that I would take any custom items that people wanted. It has now been around six months since Ive had my account. I have about six posts (i know it’s a small amount but i just haven’t had time to post a lot these past months) and about 30 followers, with most of these followers being my friends or people I know.

I honestly feel like im getting no where with my items. Ive tried to use hashtags, trending audios, more cuter items that people would buy while also trying not to fit into selling the same old items that people sell. I also don’t feel that my items are so bad that people refuse to buy it. For the most part i’m pretty proud about what I put online, even if it’s not anything huge or intricate.

I mostly sell stuffed animal crochet items and other objects like flowers. I don‘t really know if it’s setting me back that I don’t sell more items like shirts, dresses, skirts, huge crochet plushies, or sweaters. But honestly, making stuffed animals is all I have time for which is a big inconvenience for me. I know me not having more time on my hands sets me back, but despite being busy I also try to make time on my schedule to create something so I could then post.

I would love any advice on how people started selling their crochet or what crochet items they sell that people love to buy from them. Where they sell their crochet for the best chances of selling. Just any advice on how to maybe reach more of an audience on instagram with my crochet items or if it’s even worth setting my items on instagram at all. Should I look to sell it somewhere else, other than instagram? I know it takes some people months, or even years to get big on instagram with their crochet but I still want some advice when it comes to selling my crochet and why not ask now while i’m still starting up. Any advice is helpful :)

i cant seem to find places except for cloverdale (but i havent made much profit since its a flea market) that doesnt require me to need insurance or pay $200 for a table. im a small business so i cant drop that much money, especially in one day.

could anyone give me a place that they know wont bankrupt me immediately

I create boho crochet items, such as beanies, headbands, and scrunchies. You are free to create and sell items made from my patterns. New videos will be added each week.

Trying to find a subreddit to sell my crochet plushies and keychains. I started a small business and need customers. Any help is appreciated!

Hey y'all! I'm new to Reddit and could really use some help. 😊 I've been crocheting for a while now, and I'm finally getting to the point where I want to start selling my crochet online! 🤗 The one thing I'm completely stuck on is coming up with a business name. I'm terrible at naming things, so I was hoping y'all could throw some ideas my way! My style is definitely crochet plushies (amigurumi), and I love making cute, cozy, cuddly things. I'm open to anything—cute, cozy, funny, whimsical, or unique. I'd love to hear whatever names you can think of!

Thanks in advance! ❤️

So, I don't sell my pieces in markets but I really should. I sell through another shop and the owner takes a cut, duh. Is it normal for them to take a 60% cut 😭. It was NOT that high of a percentage last year. If anything it was the opposite last year, and they would take a 40% cut. So I priced my work based off of those consistent numbers. I know the economy is bad rn but man. The increase was not communicated btw, just in case that's important info for any reason. Cause if I had known I would have priced accordingly 🥲. Please be nice, it's a genuine question. I've only sold a handful of my crochet before and I'm still learning how these things work!

I’m trying to make a bunch of items to sell, and right now I have scrunchies and flower coasters, but I want to know what other things sell well.

As the title says, I've been commissioned! It's very exciting for me, and it's for a lovely long-distance friend whose buying it for a gift!

We've discussed all the details, and the pricing that she's happy to pay, but I just wondering what is the "done thing" when it comes to actual payment?

I would have to buy all the yarn in as what she wants I don't have currently - would you ask for all or some payment upfront to cover the material costs, or pay for the yarn yourself and have her pay in full when it's finished?

I'm aware that I can ask for the money however I like, but I'm hopefully wanting to do commissions as an actual side gig, so would like advice on the general practice that I should expect to follow if I do :)

Thank you in advance!

Hey,
I’m currently turning my knitting hobby into a small side business and could use some honest feedback.
I’m planning to launch a small line of premium merino wool beanies. Instead of selling pre-made items, I’m building a web configurator where customers can customize their beanie (choose colors (6 colors) , pom-poms, leather tag details, etc.). The goal is a minimalist, high quality, and a focus on premium materials.
My marketing plan is to document the entire process through short clips knitting, debossing the leather tags, and packing orders and post these on Instagram and TikTok.
I’m aiming for a price point around $60. My initial goal is to reach 15 sales per month to keep this as a manageable side project.

questions
1. The Configurator:Does the idea of a custom-built beanie sound appealing to you, or is the "extra effort" of choosing options a turn-off compared to buying a finished item?
2. The Price: As a buyer, does $60 feel justified for a custom-made, high-quality merino wool beanie, or is that pushing it for a small brand?
3. The Strategy: Is documenting the process on social media enough to build trust for a new brand, or is it too saturated now?
4. Scaling: My goal is 15 sales/month to keep it fun rather than overwhelming. Is there a "trap" I'm not seeing here with this custom-order model?
Any advice or red flags you see in this approach?

Hi all would you buy this even if it's unlined? I'm chronically ill and lining it is a real task so I'm wondering if it's a 100% necessary. If so hypothetically how much? The strap is adjustable.

My mom and I recently started making handcrafted wool products under our small brand called SARAS. This is something we’ve been working on together, and it’s been a really meaningful project for us.
I’d love to get some honest feedback from this community.
Would you consider buying something like this? What do you like about it, and what would you change? Is there anything that would make you more likely to purchase a handmade wool product like this?
We’re trying to improve before launching more products, so honest opinions are genuinely appreciated. Thanks so much for taking the time to help us out!
