TRY A DIFFERENT BROWSER
I couldn't download this pattern no matter what I tried. I used Mozilla Firefox and I was able to get it no problem! I'll edit my review after I try the project.

Too small
I never read the enlarge pattern note, so I printed out and made as is. The pockets are so small I can barely get anything inside, but I liked the overall look. I might try again later enlarging it, but it’s too late now

your asked to enlarge pattern but, your not told what percentage to enlarge it. This is an overall important fact. You cannot even start without this information. The next question asks if I would recommend this product to a friend. I would if the enlargement percentage was in the instructions. But without this information I would not recommend it to a friend. I have purchased all the material to complete this project, Had I known it did not have the enlargement percentage I would have passed on this project. I had purchased enough supplies to complete 3 of the same project. There were not any reviews to read at the point of reading the instructions. I assumed that the pattern was going to have the percentage of enlargement on it but, when I printed it there were no percentages. Also, there are parts of the pattern that do not print.
