Ownership of the finished item	The finished item is yours to keep.
Requirements from the maker	Document yarn details including brands, colors, and weight (ie a full skein's yards/meters and grams). Document how much yarn was used for each color by noting how much each skein weighs after the project is complete. Notes and questions. I would prefer a tester who ask questions/for clarification rather than "just trying to figure it out". If a section is confusing for you it will be confusing for other knitters and I would like to make adjustments. 2-3 high quality images completed project in Ravelry If posting images on social media please tag me
