Knitting

deltadawn_2

Hi-just found this forum and not sure i,m posting in right place,

I,ll be out of a job soon so trying to think of ways just to earn a bit more income.

All i can do is bake and knit really--and knitting i,m not that good at so stick with toys as its what i can do and enjoy the most.

I was wondering if theres any where i can sell these? i doubt i could knit enough to keep any type of stall going and e-bay i don,t know if anyone would find them on there, i was wondering if there was anywhere i could sell to order really?

Thanks in advance, any advice would be welcome at this point,

There are websites dedicated to selling crafts such as etsy which you may have more success on than the likes of eBay.

There is always the possibility of setting up a small web store to sell them but you will have potentially worse issues than on eBay in terms of getting people to find your store.

I have known others that have gone down this route and whilst they could certainly make a profit (ie price -v- cost) if you worked it out as an hourly rate (profit / time dedicated to making, marketing, selling, posting) the money was tiny.

If you are doing any of these you should of cause register yourself as self employed with HMRC which can be done easily online but will mean you will need to start doing self assessment tax returns

Yes, etsy.com is great for selling handmade stuff.
