Could you tell me where I can find an old Burda Pattern #3216 in a small size? Betty Manville

Burda 3216 is a one seam activewear pant that has excellent reviews on Pattern Review

Searching for a specific pattern can be a bit of a test of one’s patience. But I’d try these places first.

1. eBay – Enter Burda 3216 into the search box. When you get your results and there are none listed, click on the “Save Search” link. Here you can have any new listings of this item emailed to you when they happen. A great feature for someone looking for a specific item like this pattern. I did check for listings in the past three months on Terapeak with no results found.
2. Do a general Google or Bing search. Look for websites that specialize in old patterns and don’t forget to check out the manufacturer’s website. Some manufacturers do list older patterns until they sell out.
3. Search on Amazon.com. I wouldn’t normally even think that Amazon carries patterns, but they do. And more vintage patterns are being listed every day. So check back occasionally to see if yours has been listed.
