Hi Christine,
Thank you for your feedback!
It’s a challenge for us to list every product possible.
We use subcategories to group related products, so users are not presented with too long of a list.
Right now, all together products in this subcategory make 56 results
https://icraftgifts.com/accessories/scarves/, which is not a huge number. If we’d list “Scarves”, “Ties” and “Shawls” separately, there wouldn’t be many (or any, in some instances) results to display.
Also, by putting those 3 products together, we are encouraging people to explore related products.
From the development stand point, it’s easier for us to add a new category, then to change existing one, as someone would have to update all products, associated with the old category to the new category.
I’d love to hear what others are thinking...
