Just Plain Collection

Fast, fun, and easy. The Just Plain Collection is the perfect way for you to unleash your creativity.

Sized to include everyone, knitting patterns in this collection are written for multiple yarn weights (fingering, worsted, and bulky)*, with each weight written separately. As such, they are excellent starting points to create cozy garments and accessories when used as written, or as blank canvases so you can apply your own creativity.

Get started on the Just Plain Collection today!

* Except for the Just Plain Socks patterns, which are written for any size but only designed for fingering-weight yarn.

Update History:

September 2022:

Revised formatting of PDF to align with current template style. Clarified language where necessary. Converted PDF to be screen reader accessible.

June 6, 2023:

• Updated URLs for new store and social links.

• Created an abbreviation-free EPUB version and a screen reader accessible Large Print version.

Pattern Accessibility (all formats):

Colour Blind Accessible – all text is black or very high-contrast, and no colour is used to relay pattern instructions.

Left-Handed Inclusive – instructions are given in terms of hand dominance and working needles, not right and left hands.

PDF (standard):

• This document can be navigated using bookmarks that link directly to various sections.

• All images have ALT-text descriptions.

• Fonts are embedded in the document, and it retains its original formatting.

• Any charts are also fully written out.

• Text uses minimal abbreviations to make the pattern easier to understand, and is written in plain language.

• Best for printing or sighted knitters.

PDF (Screen Reader Accessible Large-Print):

This document is a screen-reader-accessible PDF which can be read aloud using text-to-speech options and navigated via document headers. However, fonts may not be embedded and may display improperly. The document uses Verdana font at minimum 24 points. All text is in a single column and left-justified with no italics. Text uses plain language with no abbreviations.

All images have ALT-text descriptions. Any charts are also fully written out. If this pattern contains charts, they are at an appropriate scale for Large Print. If the chart is large and will need to be pieced from several pages, the chart will be available separately.

The document was tested using Adobe Reader on a PC and an Android phone.

Plain-Language EPUB:

This document has been edited so text makes sense and flows smoothly when read aloud, and no abbreviations are used. Each section is bookmarked as a chapter. It can be read aloud by an eReader or the font can be resized using eReader settings. The pattern sections can be read straight through without having to return to earlier sections unless you need to refer to something such as a note, technique, or stitch explanation. All images have captions to explain context, but they are not necessary to understand the pattern. If the pattern includes charts, large-scale charts are also available in a separate Large-Print PDF, and all charted instructions are also written out.

This eBook was tested on a Windows PC (using the free Calibre e-reader, which you can get on their website here) and an Android phone using the Google Play Books app.
