PDF Patterns

Where can I download my PDF pattern after my purchase?ย 

All your PDF patterns are available in your "My Account" section under "Downloads."

When I click on the link to download the digital pattern I ordered, nothing happens.ย 

This is due to your browser settings. The pattern has been downloaded but does not open automatically. Simply locate the pattern directly in the "Downloads" folder on your computer.

How can you be sure you're making the right impression?

To ensure the best results, we recommend using the free Adobe Reader software(available for download here) andmaking sure to check the "Print at actual size" and "Auto portrait/landscape" boxes.

How can I check that the printout is correct before printing the entire pattern?

We recommend printing the first page of the patternโ€”the one with the test squareโ€”first.
Each pattern includes a 2 cm by 2 cm test square that allows you to verify that the printout is full-size.
Also check that the sheet contains a black frame that is centered. It should leave a white border of 1.5 cm on the long sides and 2 cm on the short sides. If this frame is missing, the lines are misaligned. Youโ€™ll need to reprint by checking theโ€œAutomatic portrait/landscape orientationโ€box. How can you ensure an accurate print?

How can I check that the printout is correct before printing the entire pattern?

We recommend printing the first page of the patternโ€”the one with the test pieceโ€”first.

There are two points to check, both of which are equally important.

1)Actual size: Each pattern includes a 2 cm by 2 cm test square that allows you to verify that the printout is at actual size. If the measurement is incorrect, it means the printout is not at actual size. Youโ€™ll need to reprint it, making sure to check the โ€œactual sizeโ€ box in your print settings.

2) The printout is centered and not misaligned. Check to see if the sheet contains a black frame that is properly centered. It should leave a white margin of 1.5 cm on the long sides and 2 cm on the short sides. If this frame is missing, the lines are misaligned. Youโ€™ll need to reprint by checking theโ€œAutomatic portrait/landscape orientationโ€ box.ย
