Choose What You Pay:

In order to price my designs in a manner that maintains both financial accessibility and fair pricing, I now offer a “Choose What You Pay” model. This model allows the buyer to pay what they are able while valuing my labor and that of other designers by providing a “true” and sustainable price for the product. The price as listed reflects what I believe is fair for the work I have put into the design. Sliding scale pricing (use codes in bold at checkout):

ARY1 - 20% ARY2 - 40%

DESCRIPTION
The Raspberry Blanket is named after the main stitch who create this eye-catching but simple design.
I love how the texture really looks like little berries!

The Raspberry stitch, known as the Trinity Stitch and Astrakhan Stitch, creates really pretty bobbles with a simple 4-row repeat.
This blanket is knitted from the bottom up, worked flat (back and forth).
