Patterns:
1. What is included with my pattern?
All patterns include a materials list with recommended fabrics, yardage chart, size chart, and a full-color photo tutorial with step-by-step instructions. All pattern pieces are computer generated and color coded for easy cutting. You can print the pattern in black and white if you prefer. Large, rectangular pieces (skirt, sash, etc.) are cut using dimensions in a cutting chart to save you paper and ink.
 
2. When will I receive my pattern?  
All patterns are instant download. As soon as your payment clears you will receive your download link. You can also access this link at anytime from the "My Account" tab at the top of the site. The download link will also be sent to the email address linked to your account. If you don't receive an email be sure to check your spam. Sometimes the order email takes a few minutes to arrive.

Once you download the PDF file save it to your computer. Patterns are formatted to print on US letter (8.5 x 11") and A4. Print at 100% with no scaling.

8. Can I get a refund?

Fabric:
1. How should I care for my fabric?
Always pre-wash your fabric before beginning a project. Wash with similar colors and an appropriate water temperature (cold for darks). Dried on medium heat you can expect 2-3" inches shrinkage/yard for knits. For best results I recommend washing all finished garments inside out on cold. Tumble dry low.
 
2. Shipping?
Please see our detailed Shipping Page for questions involving carriers, delivery times, insurance, etc.
 
3. Can I sell items made with your fabric?
Unless otherwise noted on the listing you may sell items made with our fabric. Restrictions may apply for licensed prints.
 
4. Is your fabric compliant?
Peek-a-Boo custom knits are compliant. Our fabric is CPSC and CPSIA compliant and safe to use for personal and commercial use. For questions regarding other fabrics please contact the manufacturer.
