As I've talked previously I now have an alternative platform for pattern sales - on Payhip
All of my popular patterns are there now and by way of a road test I thought I would have a summer sale over there. If you use the code SUMMER50 you will get 50% off any pattern of your choice.
The checkout process is super quick and easy with no registration needed - and if you do want to add the pattern to your Ravelry library you can do so at a later date.
You can't upload the actual PDF, obviously but you can record in your library that you own it and - more importantly - where you stored it.
Anyway, if you do decide to try it out please do let me know what you think of the platform - constructive feedback is always welcome
