But you counteract me thanking you when you bring up something that I never suggested. Never. Ever.
I never wanted to sell a sweater. At all.
My friend is trying to help advertise Bitcoin by bringing it into the fashion industry with hand knitted items, just in time for Bitcoin sweater weather. She is currently selling on her brand new Etsy shop, and is currently trying to get bitcoins accepted on Etsy, so that will be a big step in Bitcoin growing.

YOU NAMED THE TOPIC BITCOIN SWEATER.
drama over you been outted, but calm down.
lying and editing posts wins you no trust. lying and insulting reduces your reputation and your brand. so please put aside your ego and act like a businessman.
now that is said.. lets just draw a line in the sand..
there needs no reply to the above.. leave it in the past and move on.. feel free to comment on whats below
the fashion industry is ready for bitcoin, its "ripe for the picking" you have positively moved forward with a better product, the hooded scarf is in fashion, the demograph and consumerbase interest is larger and because of that i think you have a better chance.
i hope you are having conversations with your business partner about how fast an average non-skilled knitter can make a scarf (the homeless you will employ) so that you can calculate a wage+materials=cost.. that way you are able to guess a retail and wholesale price.
i say this because i have seen many come up with a good product but then price themselves out of competition due to labour costs.
EG if it takes 10 hours and minimum wage is $7.50 then that has priced you out of being able to sell it below $75, which even for the fashion loving teenagers and the knitwear soccer moms.. is a high price..
leaving you with less consumer-base/demograph of people who are willing to buy.
i know you will keep saying you are interested in the fashion industry, meaning you are not interested in the 'functionalwear' industry of cheap clothing at $1 that anyone can wear... but from the bitcoin point of view and to maximise the bitcoin recognition side of your business idea.. you need to be at a priceline that satisfies the highend you need to make your brand respectable. but not be too expensive that not many buy it and thus missing getting bitcoin recognized by the masses.
are you thinking of hand knitted (the granny way) taking 3 hours-day, or machine knitted taking minutes?
as i hope you have atleast done these calculations/tests before spending money on trademarks, domains. just to be sure that you are at a competitive rate BEFORE you start
