Publishing a pattern on Ply costs nothing. No per-listing charge, no annual subscription, no "premium" upsells.
We pass through Stripe's fees at cost. We don't add a percentage on top of the payment processor.
Sell your patterns on Ravelry, your own site, or anywhere else. Ply is non-exclusive. The yarn share is additional income on top of whatever you already earn.
Leave anytime. Export your patterns in one click. Branded lines have a 6-month off-ramp for inventory wind-down — that's it.
Join as an Indie creator for free. As your yarn-driven sales grow, you'll automatically unlock higher tiers and bigger shares.
