I have a small word of mouth crochet business where I make custom items. I have had people ask me to make something and then get upset when I tell them the price - which I spell out very clearly before I even say I’ll take on the commission. People think that my time is less valuable because I’m creating things at home. I have been asked if I could charge less because the item is small - like a baby sweater as opposed to a blanket. um... no. Each item is unique. Each item takes time regardless of size and sometimes the smaller things take longer because they involve a lot more detailed work. I would rather not take a commission than sell myself short.
