Subsequent Orders and Support

Once you have placed your first order, you can order from us any time. You can call, fax or email an order in any time.

Because you are carrying our patterns, we will gladly list you as a retailer on our Where to Buy page. Since we are a wholesale-only company, with the exception of autographed pattern books, all inquiries that we get from crocheters and knitters about where to buy our patterns are directed to our retailers page.

Along with with all of this, we will add you to our wholesale shop e-Newsletter (If you aren’t already a subscriber) and send you our quarterly newsletter that announces new products, events and classes. Once in a while you may receive a special edition newsletter if there is something new and exciting happening in between.

Supporting Our Shops

As our primary business is selling and supporting our wholesale pattern line, we are looking into creative ways to help our customers retail our patterns. Make sure you are on our e-Newsletter list to get the latest information on programs to support our customers.

We all know that our customers more often than not purchase patterns and yarn based on models in the shop that they can actually touch and try on. Therefore we have in place a Free Pattern Program (FPP) for our shops. Read more about it on the Free Pattern Program page of the site.

Karen teaches world-wide at major events and for knit/crochet shops. She will welcome working with you to teach classes that can coordinate with her patterns. To see information about classes and events Karen will be teaching and attending, visit the Workshop sections of our site.

Occasionally, Karen will contribute patterns outside our pattern line to magazines and multi-contributor books. This keeps her name out in front of crocheters and builds excitement for our line by encouraging crocheters to seek out our other patterns.

Currently we are working on putting together a trunk show program. More details will follow as all the pieces fall into place.

We are open to hearing what you would like to see in the way of support! If you have any suggestions for us, please don’t hesitate to ask!

About Our Patterns

Every KRW Knitwear Studio Pattern is test crocheted and edited to minimize errors. Most patterns are 2 pages long and the more complicated of our patterns will include photo-help. We also include charts, as necessary, and our standard abbreviation table so that your customers can easily complete our patterns. Special Stitches and abbreviations will also be highlighted and explained. Photos of stitch textures and patterns are also included through out each pattern.

Although we will always tell you on the pattern what yarn we use to make the model pictured on the pattern, our materials list on the pattern is “yarn generic” so that you can create a model from what ever yarn you would like to feature in your shop.

Patterns are printed double-sided on 32lb bright white paper and enclosed in a heavyweight plastic sheet protector.

Thanks again for your interest in KRW Knitwear Studio patterns. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to working with you!
