Crocheting

Since little I was tough to crochet, knit, (even thou I never learned much) to cross stitch, and a whole bunch of other goodies :)
Been a home maker for quite sometime now, I get so bored even thou my little toddler keeps me busy turning around and round' all over the apartment, however I found myself one day sitting in front of my PC, i happen to click a cute little baby photo that was wearing nothing but a crochet hat. I thought it was adorable and very creative!
After few days I went to the mall for a stroll and I happen to pass by a brand store that had pretty hats, I wanted one for my little toddler, but they did not have her size (what a shame!! I thought to myself)
Went home check on my facebook and saw the page that I had added (the one with the baby picture and a hat)
I follow links from there, I found crochet patters for free, adorable beanie hats, afghans, etc...and so it happen I started crocheting, all I wanted is the hat that my little daughter and I had liked so much, and I made it!! for my surprise it wasn't bad at all (lol) I though it would be a failure, but I had to give it a try...after after the first one came one more...and more...I post them on my face book and friends and family loved them, my neighbour's ask me of the whereabouts of the store I got this cute hats, I said I made them in the elevator :) and so...they started asking me right on: Do you sell them? How much? Can you make one for my baby? you make adult hats? customised? I was speechless :) and proud of myself. This has been happening the last few weeks three maybe four.
I have like 8 orders and have sell 6 hats so far from the ones I made for my little girl. I have been charging 12 $Can because I have no idea about prices!!
Ohh boy!! I think I just hit a little gold mine and I don't even know how to take advantage it of it.
God has knocked my door <3 and I'm here saying thank you with a very humble heart.
I will posting the pictures of my hats very soon.
if anybody know about prices please drop me with a hint or two, I would really appreciate it.
Wishing you all a great weekend!!
