## Frequently asked questions

### Can I download these patterns for free?

10 of 12 are free to download right from the pattern page. The other 2 are on the makers’ sites: we don’t host them and link to the maker instead — free or to their shop.

### Which pattern should a beginner start with?

Start with the easy ones: [Tenar Belt Key Holder](https://www.leathercompass.com/en/p/creative-awl/klyuchnitsa-na-remen/) and [Torva Keychain](https://www.leathercompass.com/en/p/taramo-maru/brelok/). Small projects with few pieces are the easiest way to learn even stitching and edge finishing.

### Are there video tutorials?

Yes, 6 of 12 come with the maker’s video tutorial, which you can watch right on the pattern page. For example: [Michaela Bag](https://www.leathercompass.com/en/p/creative-awl/michaela-bag/), [Tenar Belt Key Holder](https://www.leathercompass.com/en/p/creative-awl/klyuchnitsa-na-remen/) and [Kinsey Mini Bag](https://www.leathercompass.com/en/p/creative-awl/mini-sumochka/).

### How do I print a pattern at actual size?

Paper sizes: A4 — 11, Letter — 1. Print at 100% scale (“Actual size”) with “Fit to page” turned off, and check the test square or a piece dimension with a ruler before cutting.

### What leather should I use?

The body is usually cut from 1.4–2 mm (3.5–5 oz) leather, handles and straps from firmer 2.5–3.5 mm (6–9 oz) leather. Makers often give the exact thickness — check the description and notes on the pattern page.

### What language are the instructions in?

Instruction languages: English — 9, Russian — 3. Even without the language you can follow the drawings and video tutorial, and titles and descriptions on the site are translated into English, Russian and Spanish.
