We've had over 240 guests on the podcast and while we've discussed accessibility Sue Stoney identified a few gaps that we needed to discuss further.

Sue has used hundreds of patterns and this list of issues are ones that pattern designers can use to make the lives of their customers easier to follow their instructions. Using redundant queues, avoiding colour use, including sizes on pattern grade lines, adding pattern layers, being aware of hearing loss, yellowing of the lens through age, sewn shown seated, designing for seated people, text to voice enabling to help read pdf patterns - these are some of the podcast gaps Sue Stoney identified that we needed to talk about.

Sue references WHO stats to state her case about how pattern designers can make their patterns more accessible to their customers who love their patterns.
