Pattern in English

Hi everyone,
I haven’t been around for a while, but I have a small—well, for me a big—problem. I bought a pattern for slippers, and here’s the kicker: it’s in English, and I don’t speak any English at all. Is there anyone who could help me with the translation? ??? I spent half the day today trying to translate the pattern with various translation programs—oh man, what came out of that :( but unfortunately not what I need. It would be great, then I could finally knit these slippers.  If there is anyone who can help me, please get in touch with me. Here is my phone number: *** I’d be happy to hear something soon. Thank you to everyone who is there.
Very warm regards
Roswitha

Hi Rosi,

Which pattern are you talking about?
It’s not allowed to just translate and share patterns, so that’s going to be pretty difficult.
But maybe someone has already crocheted the same thing and can help you?

Or maybe the pattern is available in German—if you tell us which one it is, we can take a look :)

Best regards,
Tina

Hi Roswitha,
welcome back.
I’ve removed your phone number from the post—you shouldn’t include that in posts.
If the pattern is from Crazypatterns, I can contact the author for you and ask for help.
Please provide the product link.

If the pattern isn’t from Crazypatterns, then please don’t post a link (as you know) and instead ask the author directly for advice.

Hi, the pattern is from Etsy, and the lady I bought it from is named Julia and is apparently in Italy. I got in touch with her, and she said I should find someone else to ask for help because she doesn’t speak German. I don’t want to sell it or do anything else with it—I just need help because I don’t know what to do. Best regards

Hi Rosi, 

there are various websites where English knitting and crochet terms are translated. 

Please try Googling for knitting (or crochet) terms German/English. That might already help you a bit. 

Best regards

Hi, I’ve already done that, but there are some terms that can’t be translated. I messaged Julia an hour ago, though—as soon as I get a reply, I’ll post her full name and the message here. Best regards

Please don’t copy and paste messages here.
That’s not okay. I’ll delete any messages that are copied and pasted.
We can’t provide full customer support for patterns on Etsy.

Please contact Etsy’s customer support.
They’ll be able to help you there.

I’m locking this thread now.
