i have in the past contacted on line shops personally when i wanted to purchase just a pattern but their shipping amounts are based on purchase price not weight. every time i have taken the time to make the call the shipping has been adjusted for me to be actual shipping cost (usually about $1)i have called them and said, this is just a pattern you should be able to just put it into a regular envelope...i would love to shop with your shop more but can not justify shipping costs so high for just a pattern.
if you want the pattern it is worth the phone call to save $8-$9.
