Where is my brain?
Isn’t it gorgeous? 46+ yards (3.9 ounces) of bulky merino goodness. Can’t you just smell the fiber fumes?!?
I can’t sell it. Beeeccaaaaauuuuzzzzeee, I can’t figure out how much to charge for it!?! Anyone have a formula handy? ‘Coz I am dain bramaged!

Average artisan mark up is 300% of you cost.

Of course, that was supposed to be YOUR markup — seems I am brain damaged, too!

Materials + artisan’s work rate per hour. You’re obviously more skilled than minumum wage. If you were being paid as a contractor, what would you earn? $30/hour? $50/hour? How many hours did you put in on spinning, plying, and setting the twist? What would you pay for yarn like this? Weigh it, what would it come out to per ounce? Then you can start fiddling with what your textile artisan rate per hour is.
Hope that helps!
