Pattern Sheets

Posted in New Things, Knit Patterns, Crochet, New Patterns by Elizabeth on the September 28th, 2011

Many pattern designers are now offering their designs by pdf downloads directly to the knitting public.   This is faster than waiting for directions for a new project to arrive in the mail and saves them the cost of printing.  But doesn’t make since for us to continue to stock printed pattern sheets.

Remaining stock of knitting and crochet patterns, which are in full color on card stock, will be discounted to clear out.

Designs include:   Fiber Trends,  Oat Couture, Vermont Fiber Designs, Dolce & Knitting Pure and Simple.

Click here for details and ordering.

Don’t be dismayed by shipping costs.  If you are ordering a collection of patterns it will most likely fit in a flat rate envelope.  If your order does fit, we will adjust your shipping charge before charging your card.   Please no paypal if you wish a ship adjustment.
