If you have his patterns, you may want to download them, as a recent email from Johnny Vasques said that he is going to remove all his patterns.

Why is Johnny Vasquez taking them off ravelry?

I like his sidewinder beanie.

Checked his Ravelry page, he only has 10 patterns and it doesn't appear to many if any have projects done by members.

Is he the Johnny who does New Stitch a Day?

I have one of his saved as a pdf on one of the various storage devices I have. I might be able to find it if I look. A few seem to be free should they appeal to anyone. They aren't Ravelry downloads so saving them won't grant future access.

Other designers have opted to skip Ravelry because of accessibility issues or other reasons. He's not alone.

Of the eleven patterns, only one is - at this moment - available free, IF you can manage to fetch it from Dropbox. It took me a bunch of clicking to save it to my Dropbox.

Interesting. I didn't want to save it, not that special. I really need to start using Dropbox I suppose.

Like Ravelry and KnitCompanion, Dropbox has a learning curve, and my very sporadic use doesn't make it easier.

https://www.ravelry.com/designers/johnny-vasquez OOPS maybe I spelled it wrong and put S instead of Z So sorry all.

His email is New Stitch a Day His new site maybe called Knitiversity

Dropbox may remain mysterious for me. I get easily flustered trying to work out how to use things like that. Fortunately thus far, not a big problem.

I've always found this dude annoying for some reason. I only looked at his videos if I couldn't easily find another. I for one won't be affected by not having him on Ravelry and I consider Knitversity not worth paying for. I'm sure others will feel differently. Now I've read more responses I wonder if he's simply trying to make every penny he can from anything he charges for. He had some other endeavor that I think left a lot of people not receiving what they paid for. I wouldn't trust him.

A few years ago he sold a few different yarns but that didn't last long.

I totally missed that.

Yes. That was it. Was there another get rich quick scheme? I feel like he fleeces people. pun intended

Seems like it started that with member donations. Lately seeking donation to get a knitting magazine off the ground. And is no longer posting crochet patterns.

He is good about answering emails and correcting errors found by viewers.
