Terry P,

All the patterns on Lion Brand's website are available only to people who sign up for an account and sign in. This is how they get email addresses to send newsletters and coupons.

Your old computer may have been using a cookie to sign in for you each time you visited the site. Lots of sites have this feature. It is usually a little check box on the sign in page that says "remember me". I'm looking at Lion Brand's login page now, and I don't see any such box, but sometimes people's internet browsers remember passwords for them. I'm using Chrome right now and it does ask me in a bar at the top "Would you like Chrome to remember this password?" If I were to click "yes", I would not ever have to log in to Lion Brand again unless the cookie was deleted later on.

I know this might sound kind of technical, but all I'm trying to say is that it is very easy to forget we even have a user account somewhere, what with cookies so readily available and so easy to use without even knowing it.

Try clicking the link below the place where you are asked to put in your username and password that says "Forgot your LionBrand password?
Click here". A box will appear asking for your email address. Put your email in there and click send password and they will send your password to you. Now you'll have access to all the patterns you could see before.

Cheers,
