The Free Knitting Pattern Netring

If you are new to the internet please don't join until you own your own web page and are familiar with the way the internet works. Please do not try and sign up using your internet provider's website as your homepage.

What is a Netring?

A netring is a way of linking web sites that have a similar theme, this one being free knitting patterns.

Each member of the netring displays a netring link on their page which allows visitors to link directly to other pages with the same topic. This guarantees that the next site they visit will be of interest to them and will have valuable content. It also eliminates the more annoying aspects of many search engines, that is, slow response times and the many unrelated sites that they come up with.

Netrings also generate more traffic for the page owners and cut down on the time they might spend updating their links pages as new members can join the ring at any time and their site is
automatically reachable from any page that is already in the ring.

Searching for Patterns

If you would like to search for patterns simply go to the ring code at the bottom of this page and click on the appropriate link. These will take you, either to a page that contains free knitting patterns or a list of several pages, depending on which link you click on. Please do not join the netring if you are just looking for patterns.

 What are the Conditions of Joining the Free Knitting Pattern Netring?

To join the ring your site must comply with the following:
  1. You must be the owner and/or maintainer of the page you are adding to the netring.

    2.  
  2. You must be over 13 years of age (This is a Ringsurf requirement)

    3.  
  3. You must have at least one free knitting pattern on your page.

    4. Please note: I no longer accept pages that only contain links as I feel that the links pages already in the netring cover as many pages as possible in this area.
     
  4. You must own the copyright, or have permission from the copyright owners to display their work. This is very important! I will not allow sites that contain illegal copies of patterns into the ring. This is not only for the protection of the copyright owners, but also for my own legal protection as owner of the Free Knitting Patterns Netring. If you're not sure about copyright as it applies to craft patterns, there is a very good article on The Australian Copyright Council's website at http://www.copyright.org.au. The article is "Information Sheet G21, Hobby Crafts and Copyright", which can be downloaded at no cost.

    5.  
  5. Your site may be a private homepage or a commercial site. I'd have a lot fewer knitting books if I didn't visit the free patterns pages on commercial sites!

    6.  
  6. You must display the Free Knitting Patterns netring code and image logo on the page that you have signed up. If you do not place the code on the html file listed when you sign up the Ringsurf software will not be able to find it and I will not know you have added it. This is very important! Details of how to add the code are in the next section of this page.

You can rearrange the code so that the design fits better with your whole website design, but please do not remove any of the links as they are needed by the management software in order to verify that you have the netring code on your site.
