How do I download my PDF Pattern?
First, we suggest creating an account in our shop so you can access all your files in one place at any time!
After you place an order, you will land on a page with a custom download link. You can download your pattern then, or use the link included in the order confirmation sent via email. If you don’t receive a download link via email, please check your junk mail as it may have been rerouted (and add us to your safe senders list so it doesn't happen again!)
Am I charged for taxes?
All Canadians are charged GST and possibly PST depending on where they live in Canada. We do not charge taxes in the US.
Customers based in the EU and UK will also be charged VAT on all goods. Prices are VAT inclusive. Regulations have changed in recent years requiring VAT to be collected based on where the customer resides (and not where the company is located) so we are legally required to collect and remit VAT even though our company is based in Canada. You can read more about the VAT regulations here.
What currency will I be charged in?
Use the dropdown at the top of our menu to choose USD, CAD, AUD, GBP, or EUR dollars to view prices and checkout in the currency of your choice.
For AUD currency, the price you'll see is linked to the daily exchange rate between USD and your currency, which means prices may fluctuate. For our Canadian, EU and UK, customers, we have established set prices that will not vary with exchange rates.
What is your return policy?
We cannot issue refunds on digital goods like PDF patterns and courses if they have been downloaded or watched. If you have not downloaded your file and would like a refund, please contact us.
Customer Reviews
This a duplicate purchase, as I’ve used the original pattern so many times.
Love the shorts, but i didn’t think it was easy to get the right fit. But after the fifth try I made it and I love the shorts now. Prettiest shorts I have. But it was missing th lining b instructions and I didn’t understand how to do the waves on the bottom so had to do my own version.
Hi Rikke,
We're sorry you did not find the instruction for the scalloped hem. They are intertwined with the rest of the instructions.
If you want to try your hand at scallops, there are many useful tutorials on YouTube, like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM2DH6ilS6s
And if you have any questions, you can contact our Customer Service :)
