Rambling Rose Wrap crochet pattern - digital download with printed option

Rambling Rose Wrap is designed to be worn as a large, snuggly stole. It uses a simple one-row repeat to create the main body of the wrap before border rounds are added.

Finally, colourful embellishments are added with embroidery.

Rambling Rose Blanket was originally published in Issue 4 of The Annual by John Arbon Textiles.  A pattern for the Rambling Rose Blanket is also available.

Postage and Packaging

You can read all about P&P here.

The P&P costs applied are very transparent.  No additional costs are added on, you simply pay for the cost of packaging and the cost of postage.  I don't offer free P&P because what that usually means is that the cost of P&P has been added to the cost of goods.  I think it is better to assume that my customers aren't daft and would rather have transparent P&P costs than the pretence of 'Free P&P' with inflated prices on the items that they are buying.
