★ You are purchasing a digital PDF pattern which will be available for immediate download after payment. All patterns will have a colour version and black and white version UNLESS the pattern calls for only 1 colour.
My patterns have been designed primarily for printing so may go across multiple pages as I try to limit stitch width to a maximum of 70 per page. If you would prefer a single page version for use on digital devices, please contact me as I am happy to produce these.
