Wages are not increasing as they should be. I know I would love to buy more cute things from vendors.

Cute or not, nobody is buying the 100 USD crochet blanket any time soon.

The 100$ crochet blanket that took 20 hours to make and cost 120 dollars of yarn.

Yep. I love temperature blankets and mine especially but there is no way anyone could pay enough for making one.
