Rambling Rose Blanket crochet pattern - digital download with printed option

Rambling Rose Blanket can be crocheted as a cot, lap or throw sized blanket. It uses a simple one-row repeat to create the main body of the blanket before border rounds are added. Finally, colourful embellishments are added with surface crochet and embroidery. Rambling Rose Blanket was originally published in Issue 4 of The Annual by John Arbon Textiles. A pattern for the Rambling Rose Wrap is also available.

Product materials, sourcing and PoM Rating This product was originated by me at Fay Dashper-Hughes Designs. This pattern is printed on paper that is manufactured using wind power,100% recycled post-consumer fibre and carbon neutral. It is printed by me in my studio in Cheshire, England. 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.
