Patterns are not cheap & many times, all it consists of is a small piece of paper with written how to's.I've even bought a pattern that was a 1/2 sheet.No pics,no drawings & the scantiest "directions" ever.
Thinking the books may be the better bargain. At least books have pics & can be found on sale.One LQS said they've had complaints.I'm lucky in that I don't need patterns,but if you do...check them out.
BTW.....any pattern by Eleanor Burns will be detailed.She does good work.
