It's usually around this time of year, with the holidays coming up, that makers start getting requests from family and friends for handmade presents, but should we say yes? 

Knitting for family and friends can be a controversial topic. Saying no to projects that are too time consuming, not your style or that you simply don't feel like making can be though. Charging a fair amount for your work can be even harder. In this third episode, we talk about setting boundaries for ourselves and managing the expectations of family and friends. We explain how the approach to the ask is one of the most crucial factor in our decision and explore the various levels of making gifts for family and friends ie. making for free vs. charging for materials, charging full price vs. giving away stock items, making something without being asked vs. saying a flat out no, etc.
