Since these designers are also selling their patterns<br>separately, it presents a bit of a problem, mostly because if they buy it<br>from BBR for $8, only to find out they could have got it directly from the<br>designer for $4, then the consumer would be upset. But anyway, I saw your<br>patterns, and since I saw your prices were also a bit lower, I was concerned<br>that perhaps you were in the same boat.

I just want to see if you were aware that Bijou Basin Ranch is selling this pattern. I know of a couple people that had offered their patterns to BBR to distribute free with purchase of yarn, only to find them selling the pattern for $8 instead.<br><br><a href="http://www.shopatron.com/products/productdetail/Cosmopolitan+Cowl+Pattern/part_number=9111/1211.0.1.1.1875.0.0.0.0?" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopatron.com/products/productdetail...</a> Hi Amy, I would have e-mailed you this directly, but I couldn't find a “Contact Me” link.
