Answer 3

that crafts shop has to sell the patterns at what the company that makes them says to sell for.

go to thrift shops and second hand shops for cheap patterns also go looking at garage sales and places like that.

Answer 4

If you check JoAnn's sales flyer, every other week or so one of the pattern brands will go on sale for $1-$2/pattern (Simplicity, McCall and Butterick. Vogue doesn't go quite that low.) Also, most of those brands have sub-lines of simple patterns for beginners that are only about $3/pattern.

For example, Butterick's Easy See and Sew line:

The 'burda' site offers some free patterns, and the rest are very reasonable. I believe you have to join, but it's free.
