Only subscribers have access to pattern notes for selected indexes. The popup Design Notes box describes each pattern in detail, including sizing, exact pattern gauge, design and construction features, and tags for knitting techniques and design features. Ravelry button links take you straight to the Ravelry pattern page so you can see photos and read comments (you must be a Ravelry member, of course).

You'll be able to search for and compare patterns with specific techniques, design features, and construction methods like stranded colorwork, lace, beads, top down or seamless construction.

See below for details and tag list. Here's a sample design notes box:

We'll be adding more design notes and more indexes as we go along, and we have lots more subscriber-only features planned for the future. Sign up as a charter subscriber now to lock in this subscription price. As we add features and functionality, the price will be going up. You'll be helping us get more indexing done - the more subscribers we have, the more time we can spend developing new content!

Design notes: Detailed descriptions of design and construction. Searching in the Name column or "Search all columns" box finds text that occurs in the notes. You might search for a useful term that doesn't appear in the tag list like "raglan," "seamless," "collar," or "steek."

Sizing: Specific sizing as given in the pattern. Measurements are usually finished, blocked measurements in inches.

Gauge: Specific gauge as given in pattern. Unless otherwise noted, gauge refers to stitches/rows per 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch.

Ravelry links: Link button takes you straight to the Ravelry pattern page (free Ravelry membership required). See photos, read comments, add a pattern to your queue or favorites.

Tags: Patterns are tagged with terms for key design features and techniques. Search by tag in the "Search all columns" box or the Name column search box. Can't find what you're looking for? Check the technique dictionary (coming soon).
