My Waterways Wrap has been released!

  Today sees the release of the ' Waterways Wrap ' , available in my Ravelry store ' Bex Knitty Design ' and shortly also on LoveCrafts.com!

As usual with my releases, it will be FREE for the first day or so, which means until end of day (CEST) on the 17th April 2022 and then it will be included in my 3 Year Designer-versary sale with 33% off until end of April 2022! Ravelry: No coupon code needed, price will change on checkout. Offer prices such as these launch discounts can't be ...
