Layered Hadley 0 – 18 PDF Now Available

In addition to releasing the Hadley in sizes 14 – 32 yesterday, we’ve updated the 0 – 18 Hadley to include layered pattern files.  If you’ve previously purchased the Hadley 0 – 18 PDF all you need to do is log in to your account on our website and re-download the pattern files.

All of our patterns released from October 2019 onwards contain layered PDF pattern files.

If you’re new to layered PDFs we have a full tutorial on how to work with them here, but we’re also replicating that information here for ease of reference as well. Let us know if you have any questions and of course, if you have any issues accessing your account or the files, you can send us a note via our contact form!

Print at Home Layered PDF 

We are currently  in the process of converting all of our PDF patterns to include this feature. You can check in the Additional Details section of each pattern listing for information on the digital files.

1. First make sure you have the most recent version of Adobe Acrobat on your home computer. You can download the free software from the Adobe site here. While there are many different PDF readers, they are not all created alike. Acrobat provides the most consistent printing of any we’ve come across.
