RE: Fast fashion rant with knitted solution - how to knit mock rib stitch
20 euro ???????????? wow !!!!! it's too expensive. Of course, if it is handmade, it can be. but I would do the same as you. You have a beautiful choice of yarn color: the scarf will be bright and very beautiful. the pattern you chose really looks neat. will be very good!
Here 20 € for a shawl is not expensive. Zara is a shop which is not at the bottom of cheapness, but realative cheap. So I was amazed how they could sell a handmade item for such a cheap prize. You could not buy the wool for this shawl for 20 €, the wool would be much more expensive here.
I decided to knit it myself as I do not want to support the exploitative production of poorer countries.
But I am happy you like the pattern... although I will need ages to finish :-D
In Israel, there are shops Zara. I don’t really like their range of clothes: often it is a synthetic fabric at a high price
You are so right, mostly everything is synthetic there and the fit of their clothes is strange.
