FAQ
Orders
What format is Pom Pom Quarterly?
In summer 2022 we marked our 10th anniversary with some exciting changes to the print format of the magazine! This included increasing the size, the number of pages, and also an increase to the cover price. You can find full details of these changes on our blog. Each print copy of the magazine comes with a free digital download version. Pom Pom is also available in digital-only form from the advertised on-sale date, find more on digital downloads below.
While the cover price of the magazine increased, we continue to offer our subscribers 25% off the cost of four issues, and we hope that you enjoy Pom Pom for many more years to come!
Are there any restrictions on shipping to the EU?
For customers in the EU, please see our order and shipping update.
I can't log in! / Where are my previous downloads?
In January 2021 Pom Pom launched a new website. Order details and data were transferred to the new site, however if you are having trouble logging in or accessing downloads from orders older than January 2021 we'd be more than happy to send you a Ravelry link to your PDF downloads. Please email contact@pompommag.com with your details and we can arrange this for you!
