Hand-dyed ruffled longies continued

I’m almost done with my daughters hand-dyed and knit ruffled longies. I’m afraid by the time I finish they may become capris.
I just need to make an icord and finish the trim. I ran out of white and am getting a shipment soon.

The paper clips are markers. I wanted to finally have an accurate count of how much time a project took to make. So I added one every hour of work. There are 8 clips. I didn’t add in the time to dye and make center pull balls and icord yet. With that it could be 10 hours total. 10 hours on S/M capris would mean I should charge between $40-$50 plus yarn and shipping per pair.

How cute! I wish I could knit. I only sew. I can make recycled longies and shorties, and diapers. But nothing like that. How beautiful. You're kids are gorgeous too!
