Requirements from the maker |
I need the pattern worked exactly as written. If you're feeling a bit lost on a technique, don't be shy - just ask! I'll either explain it or decide if it needs a rewrite. And if you spot any errors or typos, give me a shout ASAP so I can spread the word to the rest of the gang. Feel free to get creative with any options already included in the pattern, and unless I say otherwise, go wild with your yarn choices. But please, no design alterations without my stamp of approval. Save your thoughts and suggestions on rewrites for the final feedback - I'll have a grand ol' time reading them then. And don't forget, I'll need at least one snazzy modeled photo that's up close, clear, and bathed in good lighting. Oh, and I'll need your permission to use it for listing and pattern promotion.
