Q. How often is Knitty published?
A. We publish four times a year. September, December, March, June -- as close to the beginning of the month as possible. To stay in touch and always get an e-mail notice the moment the new issue is ready, join the Knittyreader list using the box above.

Q. Why can't I click on the "surprise" links
or
When will the surprises be up?
A. A little while after each issue is published [no, we're not telling...it's a surprise!], we add a surprise pattern or two. You'll find them, when they're ready, at the end of the pattern thumbnails on the main pattern page -- the "patterns" link in the bar above. If the SURPRISE link isn't active, it means the surprises aren't ready for you yet. To stay in touch and always get an e-mail notice when the surprises are released, join the Knittyreader list using the box above. We only send out a few messages each year.

Q. How can I print your patterns?
A. Just select PRINT from your computer's menu. If you don't want to use up your colored ink, print in black & white/greyscale.

If you're having trouble with text getting cut off on the right side, we've found that printing in landscape orientation solves this.

And remember -- please print out only ONE copy for your personal use. Thanks.

Q. Where can I find errata for a specific pattern?
A. To keep things simple, errors are corrected directly in each pattern, and highlighted in bright pink so they stand out. If you find an error in a pattern, please contact the designer at the e-mail address at the bottom of their pattern. The designer will contact Knitty and let us know about it so we can fix it.

Q. Your e-mail links don't work for me.
A. All the e-mail links in Knitty are javascript encoded to fight spam. You will need to turn javascript on in your web browser for the e-mail links to work.

Q. Your website looks funny - things are covering up other things.
A. You should use the most current web browser your computer will permit.

Q. I'm looking for a specific pattern. How can I find it?
A. Two ways. One -- click the "Archive" button at the top of any page. A full listing of all patterns can be found there. Or search using our search box, also listed on our Archive page. Typing "felted slippers", if that's what you're looking for, will pull up a listing of the patterns we have for you.

Q. Knitty's patterns are free? Really?
A. Yes, they're free for your personal, individual use. You may print out a copy to work with. But you may not print out multiple copies, you may not reformat the pattern for commercial use, and you may not sell them or items made FROM Knitty patterns. The copyright for each pattern and article belongs to the designer or author. Any usage beyond what's mentioned here must be negotiated with the designer or author.

Q. I own a yarn shop and would love to offer Knitty patterns to my customers. What can I do?
A. Please visit this page for some great ideas that abide by copyright AND support both Knitty and our designers.
