The link to this pattern has not worked correctly for several years, not sure why a non working link would be featured in this morning's email?

Yes, there is a pattern here. Look at the bottom of your screen when you click on the pattern link. You should get a question if you want to open of save the Simply Spring beanie. If you choose to open you will be taken to the Ravelry pattern.

This patter can be found on the coats and clark website entitled."Gotcha Covered #1" LW1268. I finally managed to print out the full set of instructions from there.

Tried to open the free pattern to find this message: Sorry! That download could not be found. The designer has probably removed the pattern as a free download. Please remove this item from your patterns offered. I have the latest versions of Adobe and Internet Explorer and I still can't access the pattern. It is so frustrating to find a picture of an item that would be nice to try only to find it is no longer available!

Hi there! I was able to successfully download the pattern in the latest version of Firefox. It may be helpful to send us a screenshot of what you see on your computer. It is fast and easy: There is a button on the top right corner of your keyboard that says PrintScrn. Press that button and it takes/copies a mental photo of whats on your screen. You can then paste it into your email (Control + V) and send to us so we can better assess. Happy Knitting!

Hi all! If you click on 'Click here for knitting pattern' it should download a free PDF file of the pattern. In order to access PDF files, you need to have Adobe Reader installed on your computer. This is a free and easy program to use, which you can access at http://get.adobe.com/reader/ Hope this helps. Happy knitting! editors of AllFreeKnitting

Hi, all! Once you follow the link to the designer's blog, you will see that the first pattern is for leg warmers. Once you scroll down a bit, the very next pattern is for the beanie pictured here. For those of you having trouble accessing/printing the pattern, it is available as a PDF file, so you will need Adobe installed on your computer if you do not already (it is free). For downloading instructions, please see Adobes website here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/ Hope this helps! --Editors of AllFreeKnitting
