Patterns for Pirates has added a brand new feature to their newest upcoming patterns! The Layers Feature! This means you can choose to print one size, a couple, or all of them if you’d like. They will still be the “No Trim” style.
Here is a few screenshots to help you use the new feature.
As always, you will need to open and print your PDF from Adobe PDF Reader (a free download if you don’t have it yet).
This is what your screen should look like viewing the PDF pattern pieces:
Now you can print just the sizes you need and save some ink and time tracing off your size! 🙂

I really wanted to try the Walk the Plank shorts, but this doesn’t work for Chromebook. The Adobe Reader does not have the option of seeing what you show on this page. It only shows two divisions, one for the instructions and one for the patterns. I wish you had just listed which pages need to be printed for each size.

Page 2 of the A4 and letter paper files have a printing guide for each size, and the different versions you’d want to print (ie: shorts / knee / pant length).

How about the previously purchased patterns like the straight leg palazzo pant pattern? Layers save so much paper and are a lot less confusing. If so how do I get the new layered pattern? Thank you! Quanah

Hi there! We updated our entire pattern collection to include layers and projector files. You can log into your account and you’ll find the newest files in there for you to download if any were updated. 🙂

Is the PDF software totally free? If so, do you have a link? Thanks.
