The latest off the loom! It is another organic cotton stoll woven using Yarn in the Woods hand-dyed yarn. This colorway is called gray & white kitten. It turned out beautiful!

I finished this lovely cotton stole woven using hand-dyed organic cotton sock yarn. The color is called cloudy day and I purchased it from Yarn in the Woods in Galena, Illinois.

 I’m not sure where people got the idea that crocheters don’t deserve an hourly wage, but I find it pretty astonishing that people actually think like this 🤦‍♀️

So what is this person saying exactly? To me I feel like she expects all of us to work at slave labor type wages?!? cause that’s how it sounds to me! And who makes up these rules it’s not an hourly type of job? Who put this idea in people’s heads? So we are viewed like doing something that isn’t worthy of getting an actual hourly rate? I really don’t appreciate crochet getting disrespected like this…. 🙃

This mentality needs to stop immediately !
The wildest part about this comment is that it came from another crocheter?!? Make it make sense 🫠
