QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR PATTERN ORDER:

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU EMAIL ME:

At least 99% of the time, download emails are sent immediately after you pay.

They are sent to the EMAIL ACCOUNT ASSOCIATED with your PayPal account, which may not be your current email, so please check.

If you do NOT see the email right away, please consider that it may be an email blocking issue. Some spam filters are set to not allow emails with links from senders they are not familiar with. Other times, the download email may get put in a "junk" folder mistakenly.

If it is a email blocking issue, you can try adding k@sweaterbabe.com, info@sweaterbabe.com,
and kf@sweaterbabe.com to your email's "allowed" list.

Email me at: orders@sweaterbabe.com to let me know I need to RESEND the download email to you manually. Make sure you tell me which email address you used to place the order AND when you placed the order so I can quickly find your order.

I respond to ALL ordering problems, usually within hours or a day (depending on time zone and if it is the weekend/holiday, etc.).

If you do NOT hear from me within a day, it is most likely that your email account is blocking RESPONSE emails from me (via your spam filter or other settings that protect you from unwanted emails). Please just email me again and provide me an alternate email address and/or phone number (no international calls can be made, sorry) so I have some other way of reaching you!

Chances are that your frustration in trying to reach me is the same frustration I am experiencing by not being able to successfully
reply to your emails and get you the pattern! So please do try to email me a different email address and/or phone so I can contact you.

I do everything I can to get a pattern to you if the download email is somehow not reaching you, but please know that I can't get past your spam filters if they are set to block out unfamiliar email addresses. If all attempts to get your pattern to you fail, I will, of course, give you a complete refund. Thanks for your understanding! Technology works great most of the time!

SWEATERBABE.COM PATTERN QUESTIONS/ERRATA?:

Check the knitting abbreviations page or the crochet abbreviations page for questions on pattern abbreviations.

Please check the SweaterBabe.com Blog at: blog.sweaterbabe.com. I try to post questions and answers about specific patterns on the blog for others to reference.

Please check the knitting and crochet pattern errata page if you think there is a pattern error.

If you still have a question about the pattern, you can email: info@sweaterbabe.com.
PLEASE be specific about which page and Row/Round you are asking and I will get back to you as soon as I can [this may be within a few hours or up to 12 hours because of time zones and my availability (which is ruled by my 3 kids). Thanks for your understanding.]

Please ALSO pay attention to the difficulty level of each pattern before purchasing.
I am happy to answer questions where the pattern was not written clearly enough; however, I am not able to "teach" pattern reading if your question is due to attempting an "experienced" or "intermediate" level pattern when you are a novice knitter.

Please consider taking a class at your local yarn shop, searching online for your general question, or asking a knititng friend who is more advanced. Thanks for your understanding!
