For those having issues with finding the instructions (I just click on the picture of the ornament), if you've got any kind of adblocker turned on, you won't be able to access the instructions. When I had adblocker turned on I also got blank pages. I had to turn it off for this site.

Btw, though I understand the need for having to insert a code before posting a comment, it doesn't always work (at least not for me). Most of the time I can't even get a code to appear. When it does, why do I have to be subjected to automatic advertising? I know it's a matter of sponsorship and revenue for the magazine, but must we be bombarded at every turn with ads?

Dear Webmaster/mistress: Please fix the links on these pages. I have been trying to acces the instructions for days. So far, I can access the instructructions to ONE ornament per day. I have tried both Firefox and IE browsers and the problem persists. Why can we not access the instructions and patterns? Logging in or not doesn't appear to matter either. I want to love these but the hassle is making it extremely difficult. Please fix! Your readers implore you!

I have tried clicking on the picture of the ornament, clicking on "Print" above the picture, clicking "Learn more about this project", and they all take me to a blank internet page with the BHG headings at the top. I also tried typing in "felt ornament patterns" in the search box at the BOTTOM of the page, which took me to a results page that had all the instructions listed. When I clicked on these individually, the same blank BHG page popped up. I don't know what else to try.

Every time I try to type in the search box, it takes me to the "store" as if I want to order something. All I want is a simple pattern for the mittens! I tried clicking on the picture also.
