• a PDF or SVG of the pattern
• the editable pattern as a Seamly2D .VAL and .VIT file.

1. Pin the pattern

‘Pinning’ a pattern that is shared with you via a group puts the pattern in the  ‘Pinned patterns’ list. Click the ellipsis (…) to invoke the menu for the pattern and choose to customise it for your own measurements. (You can also store measurements for other individuals.) Then, from the customisation form press the [Enter measurements] button. This will lead to a page into which the required measurements can be entered. Once all the measurements are entered you can close this form. We’ll now check that the pattern looks okay with the measurements entered.  Firstly navigate back to the customisation form. The pattern should look something like this… Zoom in to the heel section and check this looks reasonable. Switch to the Export tab.  Click the appropriate option to create a PDF or SVG. Enter page size and margins.  The pattern must fit onto the size of page selected.  Tiling to a smaller page size (e.g. for an A4 printer) must be done using other tools. The exports that you have created now show on the Export tab. You can also export the pattern to edit in Seamly2D, or, import it through your my-pattern homepage to edit parameters within the my-pattern website.
