Our patterns
There are thousands of publications and patterns in the Guild’s collection, and copies of many are available to members, for their own personal use. Some (magazines and booklets) can be downloaded from the website and others (pattern leaflets) can be supplied on request. On this page are a few of the most recent additions – there are many more publications to download, or catalogues of pattern leaflets that can be requested, on the pages listed under ‘Index’ – either in a sidebar, or perhaps at the bottom of this page, depending on the device you are using. As well as publications to download, you will find catalogues of some of the pattern leaflets that are available to members on request – use our contact form to ask for copies.
Do browse the pages in the Index and see the items selected by our Publications Curator, Barbara Smith. If you are looking for a particular item that is not on the website, contact her by using the contact form and she may be able to help.
A note on copyright: publications that are less than 70 years old (and many older publications too) are still in copyright. The publications available here are either out of copyright, we believe, or we have permission from the copyright owner to make copies for Guild members.
