    @McCallPatternCo Also, this website is clearly from 1996.


    @McCallPatternCo Not to mention that I made the purchase 2 days ago. 2 days!


    @McCallPatternCo Knitters have solved this. If this had been a knitting pattern, I’d have casted on two days ago.

    @McCallPatternCo It was a McCall’s, but the issue is with the whole PrintSew website and experience. There was no layout guide! I have to print 110 pages?


    @McCallPatternCo And having to install an app with “Lizard” in the name from a dodgy looking website did not install confidence. I was worried it was a scam.
