Patterners Atelier
Where patterns you made turn into income
Publish crochet and knitting patterns made in Paper. Share them free for now; paid selling is planned for Basic subscribers and up.
Until now, sharing and selling a pattern was all on you
“I wanted to sell, but had no good way”
Payment, sending files, answering questions: everything selling needs, you handled alone.
“I sent files one person at a time”
To share a pattern, you made a PDF and sent it to each person by email or chat.
“Every fix meant sending it all again”
Fixing a single typo meant sending a new file to everyone who had it.
Publish a pattern made in Paper, and it carries from sharing to selling

SellComing soon
When paid selling opens, set a price on your pattern and earn from it.
Make it in Paper, fill in the details, publish
Add the category, difficulty, yarn weight, photos, and license, then request review. Once it passes, it goes live on Atelier.
Share free now, earn from it next
For now, every plan can publish and get patterns free, with no fees. When paid selling opens, Basic subscribers and up can set a price and sell.
Edit it, and readers still get the latest version
Editing a published pattern submits a new version for review. The current version stays live meanwhile, and readers can see what changed in each version.
Policies that make sharing safe
Only reviewed patterns go live
Both new patterns and edits must pass review before they're published.
Patterns people have can't be deleted
Once someone has a pattern, its source Paper can't be deleted. Even if you stop listing it, they keep access.
Artist page
Your patterns collect on your artist page, along with your links.
A license per pattern
The designer chooses personal use, small-batch sales, or commercial use. Redistributing the pattern itself is never allowed.
Find and get patterns
Find patterns by crochet and knitting category, or in the Ranking, New, and Free tabs. Patterns you get are kept in Received, ready to open any time.
Open it in Received
Open patterns anytime from Received, and send the designer a question.
