looking for an apron pattern made from a man’s long-sleeved shirt.
Great free patterns! Thanks!
I tried to get the Mobius apron pattern. The link lead to instructables web site. When I tried to download the pattern a message popped up stating it was a premium feature and there was a monthly charge associated with it.
Hi Monica, thanks for your note. You have to print the pattern from the images in Step 2. The videos on that page show you how. It may not be as simple as downloading a .pdf, but free is free. It looks like a neat design. Let us know if you end up making it. I might try one myself!
I tried clicking on two of the aprons and both went to a sniply.com that said the link was possibly spammy. Thank you for the round up! I just wish I could access the links.
Hi Jess, go ahead and try it again. Snip.ly is just a link forwarding service we use. It should be fine now. Let me know if you’re still having issues.
