What premium adds
Crochet toys made on screen, round by round (3 so far; we add more every week, starting with the crochet toys). Because the video is built from the pattern's own counts, it can't show a shape the pattern doesn't make. No one else offers this.
A picture of every stage and every assembly step, as a printable PDF, to keep next to the written pattern.
With an annual plan: every premium crochet, knitting and sewing pattern, plus every new one we add.
Paste any pattern, from anywhere. See which rounds don't add up and exactly how to fix them.
Describe a toy or upload a photo and get your own original pattern, every round checked.
Plans pay for new patterns every day, a better checker and the Designer, for the whole community.

Questions
Can I try premium before I pay?
Yes. Every free account gets two patterns in their full premium version, the Tiny Snowman Ornament and the Little Ghost: the 3D build video and the step-by-step picture guide.
What is a 3D build video?
A short video of the toy being made on screen, round by round and stitch by stitch, straight from the written pattern's own stitch counts, then sewn together. Each round shows its stitch count, so you can see what your piece should look like at every stage.
Are the pictures exactly like my finished piece?
They show the shape every round makes. Your piece will vary a little with your yarn and tension; the written pattern is the authority.
Can I cancel?
Yes, anytime, in two clicks. You keep your plan until the end of the period you paid for.
Where does my money go?
Craftuary is small and independent. Plans pay for new patterns every day, a better pattern checker and the Designer, for everyone who makes with us.
