I sort mine by type of craft; then I sort by designer or type.  Eg CROCHET ALL, is my folder and within that I would have Amigurumi, Socks, Slippers etc.   For magazines I have them by MAGAZINE NAME in the root and then make folders
within like MAGAZINE LET'S KNIT,  and within that folder I would have the years of the mags, then that folder would contain the actual magazines for that year.

I use google drive and have folders for different designers (if there are more then two of the same designer). I also i change the name of the file by adding a number: 1 stands for cables, 2 for colourwork, 3 for intarsia etc.

I have a folder for all my crochet patterns and a folder for each type of craft (e.g. amigurumi, dollies, etc.). I also change the name of the files to "Designer name - Pattern name". To see the photos, which I also like, I sort the folders to see them as icons. Also I print the patterns that I finally use and add notes there, e.g. crochet hook size, final size of the amigurumi, any changes I made, etc.

I was also thinking in sorting the amigurumi patterns by motive (e.g. bunnies, deers, lions, dolls, etc.), but I'm not sure yet.

Hope it helps! :)
