**TIPS FOR LOCATING THE DIGITAL FILE AFTER PURCHASE:
1) Locate the link in an email: Etsy will have sent a link for the download in an email from "transaction@etsy.com" on the date you made the purchase to the email on file with Etsy. Your email provider may have filed it in a spam/junk folder.
2) Your pattern downloads will always be accessible through your Etsy account.
-You must log into the Etsy website from a browser (i.e. Safari) and not use the Etsy App (a platform too streamlined to handle accessing and downloading digital files).
-Some tablets and phones will be set to route you directly to the app instead of Etsy's website. To avoid this, use a computer or go into your app settings and change the preferences.
-Once logged into Etsy, select the drop down menu under your account icon at the top right of the page. Choose"Purchases", then choose "View All Purchases". Your purchases will be listed by date. Next to each will be tiles with options like "Track Package". There will be an option to "Download File". If this is missing, you are using the app version, not the website.
3) PATTERN UPDATED FEB. 2024 - If you purchased a pattern before this time, you can message this shop to have the updated version sent to you.
