Assembling your print at home pattern is very simple. All of our patterns come with a layered Print at Home PDF and a layered Copy Shop/A0 PDF. Layered simply means that you can view and print each size or layer at a time. This way you can print only your size if that works best for you. The PDF can also be printed with all sizes as well.
Step 1
Print your PDF centered on the page at 100% scale.
Step 2
Measure the 1" or 2 cm box to ensure that your scale is correct. If these boxes are measuring correctly then the rest of your pattern will be to scale.
Step 3
Trim off the right and bottom sides of the paper at the outlined box.
Step 4
Match up the circled letters at the corners of each page.
Overlap the left page on top of the right page to cover the blank space outside of the outlined box and complete the circle with the matching letters. Tape together to secure.
Step 5
Continue taping and matching all of the pages in the row. Repeat these steps for the second row.
Match the second row to the first using the circled letters as a guide. Tape together to secure.
Step 6
Cut out the pattern pieces for your desired size!

This might already be common knowledge, but I didn’t know this was an option, and I used to work in tech support- so i wanted to share what helped save me a lot of time and frustration.
I found that I was having issues getting the patterns to print previews to center/set it up so the patterns would print center when I was using Google Chrome (Browser). When I switched to Microsoft Edge and downloaded the pattern from the Edge browser, I was able to have the Print Previews show up as centered, and when I printed it, it did actually print centered as well. (It actually does this automatically- you don’t need to change a thing!)
Now, I am sure there is probably another way to get it to work with Google Chrome (and if you have a tip/trick please let me know!), but I was so excited to get started that this simple 5-minute set back had me more frustrated than I am willing to publicly admit. This was a simple, quick, easy, painless solution, and I love simple, quick, easy, painless solutions! <3
I am so excited to get started on this pattern! <3 I cannot wait to share what it looks like when its finished!
Thank you for offering such beautiful patterns!
