HeartStrings FiberArts is a wholesale pattern company. I encourage individuals to visit your local yarn store or check the Store Locator to purchase hard-copy patterns and downloadable e-patterns. If you don't already have a favorite retailer from whom to buy, you can use the HeartStrings online catalog at Shopatron. This service will find a retailer with the patterns you want in stock to mail to you right away.
