I’m a wheelchair user and have recently got my own (not borrowed) for the first time, and of course that means I’m sprucing it up.
I’ve found that there are very few spoke cover patterns that are free and have decided I want to make some fun patterns that are accessible to people from all financial backgrounds. I don’t really know the demand on Ribblr so I wanted to ask if anyone here would be interested in a spoke pattern?
I’m planning on making a spider web pattern for Halloween which will likely be the first one I release! Spiderwebs are a relatively simple design, so I’d hopefully have a fully functional design soon and be releasing the pattern before October. I’ll be taking testers if enough people express interest in it! Spoke covers could also just be used as general decor if you want too :)
I agree! I think having those sorts of patterns available here would greatly benefit the community at large, and the fact that you plan to make them financially accessible is so cool! Even if people aren’t wheelchair users themselves, I can easily see them making some for their loved ones who are. Look forward to seeing the spoke cover patterns if you decide to go through with it!
I don’t own or have family in a wheelchair but depending on when it will get released I may be able to help test it if you need it! Like you mentioned I can use it for general decor too, I love that you plan to make it financially available to all people, even if the demand is low on Ribblr I think having it will very helpful for those that need or just like it as well
Yes! I’m with an organization here in Texas for people with disabilities up to and including physical disabilities and i would love to spruce up my occasional use chair and my friends chairs!
Look forward to seeing the spoke cover patterns if you decide to go through with it!
