Hi, welcome!
You can find plenty of useful info in the Freetalk section, among the pinned posts on top: there you'll find instructions on how to post, comment, and increase your coins :) unfortunately I can't link them directly, but it's easy to find them! Initially the forum seems quite difficult to understand, but you'll get your bearing easily enough, just ask if something is unclear.
To find patterns or instructions, use the search bar on the upper left side.
Don't forget to share your own projects (in the Post New Diary, instruction on how to on top of the section) and whichever patterns you own (in the Postnew Patterns and Magazines) :) This way we will help each others to increase the opportunities on this site!
Hope you enjoy your stay and happy crafting :)
Welcome! I joined this platform this month and im still learning today, dont get overwhelmed you will figure it out. Ask for help if you have questions :)
