Frequently asked questions

Last updated Oct 22, 2026

What do I get when I buy?

A PDF crochet pattern you can download right away and print or read on screen. Nothing is shipped. Prices end in .99 and a single pattern never costs more than $2.99.

What is a Tester Edition?

A new design whose stitch counts are machine-checked but which nobody has crocheted yet. It costs $0.99, shows a clearly labelled illustration (not a photo of a finished item), and is not described as tested. After 3 approved tester reports it becomes Verified and moves to its normal price. How testing works.

How do I get a free pattern as a tester?

Make the pattern, then use the "Report & earn a free download" link on your download page or in your email. A complete report with at least one photo of your finished piece earns one single-use credit worth up to $2.99, valid 365 days. Look up codes on the My credits page.

Are the pictures photos of finished items?

No. Until a pattern is Verified, product images are illustrations or stitch-count previews. Your finished piece will vary with yarn, hook and tension.

My download link stopped working.

Links on the download page last 72 hours each time you open the page, and email links last 30 days. Open the link in your confirmation email to get fresh links, or email hello@cozystitchpatterns.com with your order ID.

Can I get a refund?

Digital files are final once downloaded, except for duplicate charges, files that are unusable, or downloads you never received, if you contact us within 14 days. See the Refund Policy.

What does the Complete Library Bundle include?

Every paid pattern published on the day you buy it ($14.99 one time). Free patterns are free on the site. Patterns released later are not included.

What is the Pattern Club?

$3.99/month, renews monthly, cancel anytime. It includes the patterns released in the 7 days before you join and every new release while you are subscribed, but not the back catalog.

Can I sell what I make?

Yes, finished handmade items on a small scale with credit to the design. You may not share or resell the PDF. See the Pattern License.
