Help Organizing all my loose patterns
Hi all, I'm requesting ideas and suggestions on how to organize the loose patterns I've printed out. At first I thought I'd put them in a binder, but there are a bit too many. I want to easily get to them, and find what I want. I have an idea for how to organize them, just not what to keep them in. Right now they are stacked in my bookcase and getting a bit raggedy. Thanks in advance for any help!
FYI - These are the categories I have so far:
Women's Pullovers
Women's Cardigans
Women's Other Clothing
Men's Pullovers
Men's Cardigans
Hats, Gloves, Scarves
Children's
Babies

How about getting using seperate binders for each category, or a couple of categories to a binder? I like to put loose patterns in clear plastic sheet protectors to keep them from tearing, then put them in 3 ring binders.
That's pretty much what I do, too. The plastic sheet protectors, and then sorted by category in a binder. I like that it stays organized and the pages stay together (no worries about staples coming out), but also that they stay clean and unsmudged--and easy to flip through, with one sheet protector per pattern, so I don't waste time looking for the top page of individual patterns.
How about getting an accordian file and putting your headings on them? Then when you want a sock pattern, you only have to look thru that section. You can still put them in a protector.
