How can I organize my purchased patterns into themed folders (e.g., dolls, Christmas…)? I’ve accumulated so many patterns that it takes me forever to find the right one. I’d really appreciate any help!
Hi Wollbärli, have you downloaded the patterns to your computer or your phone/tablet? You can store this kind of data, for example, in the cloud—that is, on a server on the internet—and set up the folder structure you want there. Under the “Patterns” folder, you can then create several subfolders, such as Accessories, Jackets, Sweaters, Kids, Dolls, etc., where you can create additional subfolders as needed. This works not only for the patterns from CrazyPatterns, but for all patterns you have in digital form.
My PDF patterns are stored on an external hard drive connected to my PC, and I also have a copy in iCloud. However, there are various other providers for storing and backing up data, such as Microsoft or Google, depending on what mobile devices you use.
Of course, you should think about a sensible structure in advance. In the cloud (regardless of the provider), your files are safe even if your phone, PC, or laptop breaks down and you can no longer access the internal hard drive, for example.
@Christina,
thank you for your question. Currently, the downloads only have filter options, but no folder function like on the favorites list / wishlist.
@Community,
could you please take a quick vote and let me know how many votes there are for programming a folder function for the downloads, comparable to the folder function for the favorites list / wishlist? If enough votes come together, I can pass this on to the developers and ask whether something can be done about it.
Hi, it would really help if the “pre-sorted subcategory” from the Wish List could somehow be retained when making a purchase. Maybe in the download name? The first thing I do after downloading
is rename the file to include “Used/Needle #” anyway.
I’d also be happy to have a folder feature.
Since everything is on my phone, it takes me forever to find something, and to be honest, I’ve lost track of it all.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a PC or laptop where I could organize the patterns.
