This pattern is the result of a group of women - Fruity Knitting Patreon Patrons - bringing together their time, energy and talents to make something happen.

We are deeply saddened to learn of the recent passing of Andrew of Fruity Knitting. 100% of the revenues for this pattern will continue to go to the family for whatever small solace they may provide for such a deep and tragic loss.

As of 5/01/21, we have been able to send a total of $1,700 USD and we are deeply grateful to all who have contributed.

This pattern links to video tutorials about three different techniques, is charted and written. We are not able to provide support beyond this as a fundraising pattern, but we welcome your feedback.
