Nothing says retro like an over-the-top potholder, and these cute and colorful numbers are the perfect project for playing with color and stitches. Grandma would be proud!

Problem printing-need to shrink PDF
Submitted by mammacatknits on Wed, 2010-02-17 22:36.I have tried various ways to print these patterns, but even with lanscape setting, the pattern prints outside the paper and much of the pattern is cut off. Does anyone know how to shrink the PDF to fit the paper? I know this might be a simple question, but... Thanks for any help!
file updated!
Submitted by erin on Thu, 2010-02-18 10:12.Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I've had the file reworked and the version now there should print each page on a separate 8.5 x 11 page!

Submitted by B from Canada on Tue, 2010-02-16 06:35.ToniaRose, I just tried it, and the pdf opens and reads fine for me. Not sure why it's not working for you.
Do you have a friend that could print it out for you?

File Damage
Submitted by ToniaRose on Mon, 2010-02-15 19:45.I think I'll requested the printed copy. I sat down in my bed last night excited to start on these pot holders and I opened my Mar/April issue of Crochet Today and flip to the page (according to the index in the back) only to find that the pattern isn't printed in the magazine and I have to go online to print it off (with my non-existent printer). So today I'm thinking...I'll just hand write the pattern out. So I go to click on the link and: "File Damaged can not repair." Ugh.
