Free daffodil pattern

Ok here it is. I was gawping out back at the mass of land and noticed one very lonely daffodil sat proudly among the blackberry bushes. The light hit it just right and was enough for me to get the inspiration I needed to get my crojo back.

It led to this new pattern and I want to make it available to all.

I must insist that you do not take this pattern and sell it, if you want to share it provide a link do not make copies of this pattern.

Crutch comfies free pattern

As you may know I have a chronic illness.
Sometimes this illness prevents me leaving the house other days I walk like the average able bodied person. Unfortunately I spend a lot of time walking with an aid. My crutch (cane to some of you) tends to leave me with a ton of pain in my hand. It also leaves me with bruises on occasion, talk about insult to injuries.

To combat this I've adapted my own stick with easily removable crutch comfies, they work up fast and actually help my pain. I've decided to share this pattern with you for free.

This pattern is free to use but not to be used to make items for sale. You may use it to give finished item as a gift but not for profit. Items can be made and given to charity. Do not take the pattern and claim it as your own, that's just rude.

I always line the handle with a foam pipe cover, I pick up a pack of two from the pound shop and cut them down to size 1 pipe makes approximately 5 to 6 covers.

My crutches are standard size issued from hospital or bought online for £20 per pair
