Hello! I am here with a new pattern for you all!
This is the shiny version of rockruff that I had made for a competition that I ran earlier this year.
If you would like to purchase the pattern with step by step photos you are very welcome to!
Or if you would like to support me. You are welcome to do so here.
Now without further ado, here is the pattern!
