ASSEMBLING YOUR PDF PATTERN PRINTOUT Once your patterns have printed, you will need to put them in order as shown below.

To help you: 1. First group each second number. E.g. in a group 1, there are: 1/1, 2/1, 3/1, 4/1, etc. In group 2: 1/2, 2/2, 3/2, 4/2, etc.

2. Once they have been grouped, piece them together in numerical order from left to right.

p. 1/1

p. 2/1

p. 3/1

p. 4/1

3. Your printouts will always have a dashed border to perfectly match your pieces. Cut off the right edge of each page.

Be careful not to cut beyond the dashed mark, otherwise your patterns will not match accurately.
