2021 Holiday Freebies :: Fingerless Gloves

November 29, 2021

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Fingerless Gloves!

The Fingerless Gloves are a perfect accessory for cold and cooler weather months! They can be useful for outdoor adventures, or perfect for a little extra hand warmth while still allowing for some mobility indoors.

How to measure hand circumference: Using a flexible tape, measure around the palm of your dominant hand, just below the knuckles, excluding the thumb.

**Most knits will work for this pattern. You just really want something with good recovery, so it doesn’t stretch out while in use. No one wants a saggy glove!

Supplies Needed:

  • Fingerless Gloves pattern pieces
  • Less than 1/3 yard knit fabric

TUTORIAL

  • Step 1: Press angled edge of glove top 1/2″ toward wrong side. Top stitch.
  • Step 2: Place glove top pieces, right sides together.
  • Step 3: Sew along short, side edge.
  • Step 4: Press angled edge of glove bottom 1/2″ toward wrong side. Top stitch.
  • Step 5: Place glove bottom pieces, right sides together.
  • Step 6: Sew along curved edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance.
  • Step 7: Place glove side piece, with right side facing up.
  • Step 8: With right sides facing down, place top glove piece on top, aligning the top corner points on each piece.
  • Step 9: Now place bottom glove piece on top, aligning the bottom corner points with the rectangular side piece. Sew along edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance.
  • Step 10: Repeat on opposite side.
  • Step 11: Press raw bottom and top edges to wrong side and hem using 1/2″ hem allowance.
  • Repeat steps 1-11 with second glove. Flip gloves right sides out.

You’re finished! Go wear your new Fingerless and then make 10 more. You know you want to!

**hint, hint. They’d make AMAZING gifts for teachers.

2020 Holiday Freebies :: Bear Hug Rug Tutorial

December 6, 2020

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Bear Hug Rug!

The Bear Hug Rug is pretty much a giant stuffed animal, with function. It can be used as a rug on the floor, while relaxing or reading a book. It can be used as a blanket with a big ole’ head for cuddling up with. Or it can be used as a giant stuffed animal, ready to be loved.

The pattern construction is super simple and the results are so fun. We hope you love it!

Supplies Needed:

  • Bear Hug Rug pattern pieces
  • Fabric Requirements: Fleece / Minky / Faux Fur, etc, 54″ wide
    • 2 Yards Main
    • 2 Yards Lining
  • Fiberfill (for head)
  • Scraps of fabric for facial features
  • Buttons / Embroidery Thread for Eyes

TUTORIAL

Place 2 ear pieces, right sides together.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew around entire round edge.

Turn right side out and place pin/clip at the middle, bottom edge. Repeat for second ear.

**Tip from our testers: if your ears are on the floppy side, you might want to add a little polyfil to them to help them stand up.

On head piece, use the pattern piece to place pin/clip for ear markings.

With right sides together, match ear pieces to markings on the main head piece. Baste ears in place.

On main snout piece, center the nose piece and attach using your favorite applique stitch.

Note: If nose fabric is woven / can fray, be sure to use an interfacing before fixing it to the snout to avoid future issues with fraying.

With main snout facing up, place lining fabric on top, right sides together.

Sew around entire outer edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance.

Clip curved edges, using pinking shears / “v” pattern to help with a smoother turned edge.

Careful not to cut through the main fabric, clip a hole through the middle of your lining fabric piece.

Turn the snout right sides out, through the hole you just cut.

Press out all of your seams.

Place the snout piece, centered on the main head piece. Edge or applique stitch snout to attach it.

Add your eyes.

**I used these large buttons and hand stitched them on. You can also choose to embroider this detail, or add fleece circles. Whatever your preference is!

Your bear’s face should be nearly complete!

With the head right side up, place the lining fabric on top, right sides together.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew around the outer curved edge, leaving about 5″ open at the bottom for turning.

Turn the head right sides out, through the opening.

Being sure not to overstuff the head, fill it with fiberfill.

Using a blind stitch, close the opening on the head piece.

With the body pieces right sides together, sew around entire outer edge, leaving a 5″ opening for turning.

Clip all of your extra seam allowance for easier turning.

Turn through the opening.

Tuck your seam allowances into the opening and blind stitch closed.

Align the head between the front legs.

Hold head in place and flip both the body and head over. By hand, use a whip stitch to secure the head to the body piece.

I like to use a wider-eyed needle, with embroidery floss, for some extra hold.

You’re finished!

2020 Holiday Freebies :: Braided Infinity Scarf Tutorial

December 5, 2020

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Braided Infinity Scarf!!

If you were looking for a quick gift to give someone, look no further. Because this “braided” infinity scarf just might do the trick! I don’t want to toot my own horn just yet, but I think you might love this even more than the Hidden Pocket Infinity Scarf from a couple of years ago. We will see, won’t we? 😉

Supplies Needed:

  • Two (2) 18″ L x 54″ or (width of fabric) W pieces of knit fabric

Lay one piece with right side facing upward, and fold in half meeting the long edges together, right sides together.

Sew along long, raw edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance.

Turn piece right side out.

Repeat with second fabric piece.

Lay one tube of fabric in half, in a “u”-shape

Lay second tube of fabric on top, in a similar “u”-shape.

Reach your hand over the top fabric loop, and through the bottom fabric loop.

Gather both ends of the top fabric with your hand.

Pull the ends through the bottom loop.

Separate the top fabric ends.

Put your hand through the bottom loop and grab the end furthest from you.

Pull end through the loop.

Put your hand through the bottom loop and now grab the end closest to you.

Pull end through the loop.

Adjust the “braids” to your liking.

Open up the ends and match the opposite sides to one another.

With right sides together, match up the two seams along the raw edges.

Pin / clip around the opening, matching right sides together.

**This step is a little tricky. You won’t be able to align the two pieces all the way around. Go as far as you can without stretching out your fabrics.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew around entire raw edge. Leaving an opening for pulling/turning the fabric.

Pull the fabric through, to turn everything right sides out.

Tuck the seam allowances into the opening.

Pin and, using your favorite stitch, close the opening.

You’re finished!

In case you consider yourself a more “visual learner” here’s a video tutorial that walks you through the entire tutorial, start-to-finish.

December 4, 2020

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Paw-fect Stocking!!

If you’re anything like me, your fur family members also get visits from Santa Claus — or maybe Santa Paws? (ba-dum-ching!) We’ve always hung stocking for our pups and filled them with toys and treats. And since we added another furry family member this year to my own household, I felt like maybe it was time to make new stockings for all three of our babies!

And I’m thinking maybe you might like this for your canine and feline family members as well!

Supplies Needed:

  • Paw-fect Stocking pattern pieces
  • 1/2 Yard each: Outer + Lining Fabrics and Fusible Fleece Interfacing
  • 1/4 Yard Accent Fabric (for cuff and paw details)

Prepare all of your pieces.

Cut:
— 2 each: Main, Lining + Interfacing Stocking Pieces
— 2 Large “Toes” in Accent Fabric + Interfacing
— 2 Small “Toes” in Accent Fabric + Interfacing
— 1 “Pad” in Accent Fabric + Interfacing
— 1 Cuff in Accent Fabric
— 1 Hanging Tab in Accent Fabric

Apply interfacing to the main outer stocking pieces and the paw print applique pieces.

Using the stocking piece as a guide for placement, lay out the applique pieces.

Using your favorite stitch, applique the pieces to the front stocking.

Place the back outer stocking piece on top of the front piece, right sides together.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew along all edges, leaving only the top, straight edge open.

Trim down your seam allowance, and clip into the corner points of the paws, being careful not to cut your stitches.

**Repeat last three steps with stocking lining pieces.

Leave your lining piece wrong sides out, and turn your main piece right sides out. Slip the lining into the main piece.

Fold hanging tab in half, wrong sides together. Iron.

Open up hanging tab piece and fold outer long edge toward crease. Iron.

Repeat with other outer edge.

Edge stitch along double folded edge. 

Fold hanging tab in half. 

Place hanging tab inside of stocking. Align it just behind the side seam, toward the back of the stocking. Clip or pin in place. 

Fold cuff piece in half, along short edges. Right sides together. 

Fold in half again, this time meeting the shorter raw edges together. 

Sew along side edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance. 

Flip cuff right sides out. Using pins / clips, mark half points of cuff. 

Slide cuff piece inside of the stocking, aligning the half points to the side seams. 

Sew along entire raw top edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance. 

Pull cuff up and out of the stocking. 

Flip cuff down toward body of stocking. 

You’re finished! (Don’t forget to press your stocking before hanging it up!) 

In case you consider yourself a more “visual learner” here’s a video tutorial that walks you through the entire tutorial, start-to-finish.

2020 Holiday Freebies :: Hickory Hat Tutorial

December 3, 2020

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Hickory Hat!

The Hickory Hat is a classic “aviator” or “lumberjack” style cap. It is available in four sizes, for head circumferences 18″ – 24″ and was drafted for non-stretch fabrics. Grab all of your favorite fun furs + fleeces, because this pattern is perfect for those!

**If using a super plush / thick fabric, you may want to size up — as those fabrics take up a bit more space and leave less room for your noggin.

Supplies Needed:

  • Hickory Hat pattern pieces
  • 1/3 yard fabric each (outer and lining)
  • Optional Buttons

TUTORIAL

Cut all of your pieces. The assembly for the lining and outer cap will be the same for the first few steps.

With a pin or clip, mark the middle points of the curved side cap pieces, and both sides of the middle cap of your lining fabric.

With right sides together, place the side cap piece on top of the middle cap. Aligning them at the center points.

Ease the pieces together, and sew using 1/2″ seam allowance.

Using pinking shears, or cutting with a “v”, trim excess fabric along curved edge.

**Repeat with second side cap piece. And repeat all steps with outer fabric.

Place the ear flap pieces with right sides together.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew along entire side and bottom edges. Leave the top, straight edge open.

Trim all excess seam allowance, making sure to pay special attention to the corner points. Clip as close to your stitches as you can, without going through them.

Turn right sides out. With a pin or clip, mark the middle point of the top, raw edge.

Place the brim flap pieces with right sides together.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew along entire outer edge, leaving the top, straight edge open.

Clip excess seam allowance. Turn right sides out.

Locate the middle front and back of the cap lining piece and mark with clips / pins.

With lining fabrics right-sides-together, match the ear flap piece to the lining cap piece.

Baste in place.

Repeat with the front flap piece. With lining fabrics right sides together, match front flap piece to the lining cap piece at the middle front point.

Baste in place.

Locate the outer cap piece. Place it in front of you, wrong sides facing out.

Place the lining piece (with the ear flap and front flaps basted onto it) inside of the outer cap. Tuck the flap pieces inside and align the seams against each other.

Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew along entire circle, leaving 3″ opening for turning.

Turn right sides out. Tuck opening seam allowance in. Pin, and blind stitch the opening shut.

If desired, tack the front flap up — using buttons or a quick hand stitch.

You’re finished! Go wear your new Hickory Hat and then make 10 more. You know you want to!

2020 Holiday Freebies :: Pirate Pillowcase Tutorial

December 2, 2020

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Pirate Pillowcase!!

Pillowcases are such a fun, quick sew. And they make perfect gifts because they’re easy to customize to anybody’s liking. My mom used to be in a “Pillowcase of the Month Club” when I was in college and she would send me a new pillowcase each month. It was so fun to have something from home, and a fun surprise to see what fabrics she selected for me each time.

Pillowcase SizeCuff (L x W in inches)Body (L x W in inches)
Standard9″ x 41″23″ x 41″
Queen9″ x 41″27″ x 41″
King9″ x 41″33″ x 41″

You will need: 1 Cuff Piece and 1 Main Body piece.

With right sides together, align the top long edge of the main body and bottom long edge of the cuff piece.

Sew along long, raw edge, using 1/2″ seam allowance.

Open up the sewn pieces. Using an iron, press the seam allowance up, away from the main body.

Using your iron, create a 1/2″ memory press the top raw edge of the cuff piece.

With wrong sides together, fold in half, matching the short ends together — creating your pillowcase shape.

Using 1/4″ seam allowance, sew along side and bottom seams.

Trim seam allowance down to 1/8″. Careful not to clip through your stitches.

Turn the pillowcase inside out.

Using 1/4″ seam allowance, sew along entire bottom and side seams, enclosing all raw edges.

Keeping the pillowcase inside out, fold the cuff piece down toward the body.

Use the 1/2″ memory press you created earlier to fold the top raw edge under.

Align the folded edge along the seamline.

Using a scant 1/8″ stitch, topstitch around the entire cuff.

Turn the pillowcase right sides out. Press. And stuff it with a pillow! You’re done!

In case you consider yourself a more “visual learner” here’s a video tutorial that walks you through the entire tutorial, start-to-finish.

Important Announcement :: Changes to Freebies!

December 1, 2020

Growing pains exist in so many ways, even in business.  Some are easy to ignore — and some you can only ignore for so long.  This is one of those “for only so long” moments.  As we continue to grow, this little corner of the web continues to throw challenges our way.

Our main goal is to make every experience a great one when you visit us here.  Every. Single. Visit.

After consulting with several website gurus, the best way to increase website capabilities is to adjust how our “Freebies” work.  Starting January 1, 2021 (01-01-21), ALL free files will automatically expire after 30 day of purchase.

So now you’re thinking: How will this affect me?

Here are a few FAQs:

  • Q: Are these patterns not free any longer?
    • A: As we like to say: Freebies will always be free.  They just won’t stay in your account forever.  You’ve got 30 days to download them, or else you need to “purchase” them again….still for free.
  • Q: What do I need to do differently?
    • A: Not much.  Just download your files and save them to your computer, external hard drive, tablet, cloud storage, etc.  If you forget to save them somewhere, it’s not a problem.  The patterns will remain in your account for 30 days before you need to “purchase” them again.
  • Q: What happened to the free pattern that I “bought”?  I can’t find it in my account.
    • A: It’s simple….it’s been over 30 days, which means your download expired.  Add it to your cart, go through the checkout process, and download it again.  Easy peasy!

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us for some extra assistance: help@patternsforpirates.com

Thank you so much for being part of our P4P family!  And get ready for five full days of fun with our 2020 Holiday Freebies…starting tomorrow!

September 4, 2020

What a day, what a DAY!  We are pumped about our newest release of the Peg Legs – Colorblock Pack and update to the beloved Peg Legs, and Peg Legs – Add-On Pack!

Before we get moving too far into this, I’d like to remind you that we’ve got a sitewide sale happening from now until Saturday, September 12.  In addition to that, we’ve got an awesome giveaway happening, with 14 amazing prizes (and 14 amazing prize winners)!  You can read all about The Peg Event HERE.


Let’s talk the new Peg Legs – Colorblock Pack, shall we?

The Peg Legs – Colorblock Pack is a special spin on our basic leggings pattern.

This new Colorblock Pack give you a super fun diagonal piece on the thigh for a lot of fun opportunities with different fabric combinations. The diagonal colorblock is also super flattering on the front and back. The waistband is a high waisted/high rise contoured waistband but this time we gave it a little heart/v shaped to the back side to show off those squats you’ve been working on!

The waistband also has a fun diagonal pocket or two to hold your things…because pockets are important! We truly hope everyone enjoys this fun new pack to the Peg Leg collection!

Options include: Shorts (5″ inseam), Bike (just above knee), Capri (calf), 7/8 (above ankle), and ankle lengths. You can choose from plain waistband, 1 pocket or 2 pockets.

They are drafted in adult sizes and are for the full, newer size chart, extending from XXS – Plus 5X!  If you haven’t sewn with us in a while, please make sure to check the size charts, as there were slight adjustments made to accommodate the new size range for adults.

If you’re looking for a little more inspo from our fabulous testers, head over to this FACEBOOK ALBUM to look at all the goodness they are providing you!

On top of the new release covered above, we also gave an update to our original Peg Legs pattern, as well as the Peg Legs – Add-On Pattern!


What changed?  Here are the details:

  • We adjusted our size chart and range to match with our updated range.  Now Peg Legs can be made for anyone sizes XXS – Plus 5X!
    • If you haven’t measured yourself in a while, take some time to do so.  It’s healthy when sewing for yourself anyway, because weight and size can fluctuate so much and you want to make the perfect size for yourself.  But also, our chart adjusted ever so slightly and you might fit into a different size range now.
  • We added a projector file for our friends who like to use their paperless technology.

New Pattern Release :: Sailor Gaiter FREEBIE (5 Sizes Included!)

July 30, 2020

2020 has been a rough year for a lot of people, and so we’re popping in with an unscheduled freebie to hopefully make your day today!

The Sailor Gaiter is a classic knit, stretch neck gaiter.  It is super useful for everyday situations (think: bicycling, working out, general accessorizing, etc.)!

**If you’re planning on using this as a face covering, per your local mandated requirements, please review the guidelines provided by the CDC. This face covering is intended for general public use only and is not intended as a replacement for medical grade PPE.

You can wear it a ton of different ways for your own style and whatever you’re doing at the time.  Some of the most popular ways are as a face covering, headband, around your neck,  (the tall option) hat/beanie, and more.


We also added a ear loop option to help keep it on and up for those doing activities moving around a lot.

You can line it for a 2 layer option or just use 1 layer and hem the edges.
**If you choose the double layered option, you might want to consider sizing up, as it can start to get a bit tight with those extra layers!

The Sailor Gaiter is a perfect scrap buster!  It takes very little fabric, and very little time to put together!  All you need is some high stretch knit and you’ll be on your way. Our favorite fabric types for the gaiters were cotton lycra/spandex and athletic knits.

With five sizes in this quick and easy pattern, you can create a Sailor Gaiter for everyone from child to large adult.

What are you waiting for?  Go grab the pattern now!  SAILOR GAITER FREE PATTERN  And then be sure to head over to our Facebook Group, or to tag us on Instagram so we can see what you made!


We hope this freebie helps make 2020 just a little smoother for you and yours.
