I love a sale as much as the next knitter, but please be aware that Vogue’s policy toward paying designers for online pattern sales is terribly unfair.
They offer 10% of net, which is next to nothing, and they keep 90%. There’s no way this could remotely be perceived as fair, and I’d love to see Craftzine cover this from the perspective of the designers.
Interweave offered a similar amount last year, but after negotiations between designers and IK the figure now ranges between 20% – 50%, which is much more fair. Vogue could do this, too, but up to now has refused to consider raising this tiny percentage for the designers.
Best,
Annie Modesitt
