Rules for Using Pattern:
Let's be serious, you're probably gonna hand your print out of this pattern to a friend if you like it, and I'd do the same because you really mean nothing by it, but if someone asks where did you get your towels, if you could point them my way, that'd be great. Also, please feel free to sell the towels. If you wanna note you got the pattern from Gayle Designs, I'd appreciate it, but, again, let's be real. I don't have a magic mirror to creepily watch you, so you do you, and I hope you enjoy this pattern.
