You know the feeling - hours lost to formatting, compressing a PDF just to upload your pattern, worrying about piracy, and wondering if your work will ever reach the audience it deserves.
Lir, our co-founder and a lifelong crafter, lived those struggles for 15 years.
Ribblr was born out of that journey - to take away the barriers that hold you back and give you the freedom to focus on what you truly love: designing.
The world's most popular designers choose Ribblr. Ready to join them?

No more endless formatting and graphic design work. Ribbuild automatically generates abbreviations, stitch tutorials, and even smart sizing for your patterns. Write in your own language and units, and Ribbuild instantly converts measurements and translates your patterns. Import your existing PDFs or start fresh - either way, your designs are transformed into interactive ePatterns ready to share with the world. Stay focused on designing. Let Ribbuild handle the rest.
