Just curious - do you ever buy finished makes?
I know some people would buy to support a fellow crafter or if for example it’s a knitted sweater and they only know how to Crochet.
Yes - always
Sometimes - if it’s a skill/craft I did not master
I have, but I admit that they were not IS made, they were made by some artisans in India (not a sweatshop though).
I wanted to try the set that they offered.
I’m pretty picky on buying new hooks since someone started me in Furls a few years ago and a friend sent me an alpha for Christmas 2 years ago
But I like to have a hook with my wips, so I can’t ever have too many
