Pay What You Can

I liked Frenchie’s (@arohaknits) model of offering different price points for a pattern to help make it more accessible to people while also giving the designer an option to get paid fairly for the work that has been put in.

I will be offering this pattern at the 4 price points shown = below. While I would normally price this pattern at $6, purchases made at the 2 higher price points will help me sustain the lowest price offer for a longer period. Thank you for your support!

To buy this pattern at a price you’re happy to pay (taxes not included), use the coupon code against it at checkout. No coupon code needed at the highest price. (Send me a message if you need any help.)

bhakti1: $3

bhakti2: $6

bhakti3: $9

no code: $12

Bhakti means devotion. Also the name of a friend, who is very special to me.

This wrap follows a simple asymmetric construction with twisted rib stitches throughout the pattern. 1x1 rib is worked halfway through the wrap and then changes to 2x1 rib along with colour and textural patterns. While there are different stitch patterns used in the 6 sections, they are repetitive in nature throughout the section. Only the placements of the stitches vary so as to form the design shape or element in the pattern.
There are 3 colours used in the sample, feel free to use more or just work it in one colour - as a lovely tester said, “to show off the intricate stitches and changing patterns.
