Hi Maggie, and anyone else interested in marketing handspun. Another thing that helps is to have a swatch of the yarn knit up with the needle size and gauge printed on a tag attached to the swatch. One of the best displays I have ever seen was a woman that had the yarn knitted up in about 10 different needle sizes from quite small to quite large. It was knitting in one continuous length each 4" long along the length of the "swatch scarf". It showed exactly what effect changing the needle size would do to the look and feel of the yarn so the person buying could decide for themselves which needle size was appropriate for their project. Also, at $7/ounce are you getting your labor costs as well as the fiber costs? It seems very inexpensive to me!
