Consult the pattern instructions within the magazine.Prepping your magazine patterns for use doesn’t have to be difficult, although it is a slightly different process than prepping a paper pattern or simply cutting pattern tissue. All of the magazines I’ve highlighted here offer at least a small “plus” collection per issue, and two (KnipMode and Ottobre) offer every pattern in their entire size range–up to a European size 52. However, these magazines provide a lot of bang for your sewing buck, and most are very well drafted and fit true to their size charts. Additionally, the quality of language translations varies quite a bit by magazine. The main caveat to pattern magazines is that in the interest of economy, the patterns themselves are printed in an overlapping format on large pattern sheets, often looking like a maze or a roadmap, and you’ll need to trace your pattern in the correct size before you can use it. Popular among European sewists, pattern magazines are released either monthly or a few times a year and contain entire collections of new sewing patterns, often in very on-trend styles.
If you’re looking for a good way to quickly and cheaply build up your pattern collection with a lot of different styles, consider picking up or subscribing to a European pattern magazine or two.
