The 4 tactics that work specifically for knitting & crochet sellers right now — title structure, tag strategy, description format, plus this week's trending keywords.
Patterns are digital downloads. 'PDF pattern' in title + 'instant download' in description matches Etsy filter behavior.
'Beginner', 'easy', 'intermediate', 'advanced' — pick one and use it consistently. Etsy filters on this; buyers self-select aggressively.
Pattern buyers want to know 'do I have the right tools'. Putting yarn weight (worsted, bulky, super-bulky) and hook size in description first paragraph reduces refund requests.
Including 5 sizes (baby/toddler/child/teen/adult) in one pattern is a feature — say so in the title or first description line.
