Want to learn more about How to Sign Up for GROW to Access the Free Patterns from Marly Bird? Great, let me see if I can help you.
We’ve noticed some confusion about how to sign up for GROW, so here’s a quick explanation to help you get started.
What is GROW and why are designers using it?
GROW is a platform that allows designers to provide exclusive, high-quality content directly on their websites while creating a secure and streamlined experience for users. When you sign up for GROW, you gain access to free patterns, tutorials, and other locked content, all in one convenient place.
For designers, GROW helps manage access to their work, ensuring that their patterns and resources are protected while still being accessible to their audience. It’s a win-win: makers can enjoy amazing content, and designers can continue to share their creativity in a sustainable way.

How do I sign up for GROW?
You can visit the GROW website and sign up there. Then, when you visit one of the blog posts or pages for the free pattern (like the Lorelai Knit Vest or Sookie Crochet Cardigan), you’ll see the pattern content marked as locked (see image).
To access the content, you’ll need to either log in to GROW (if you already have an account) or sign up for GROW (if you’re new). Once you have done so, reopen the same pattern post or page and the content should be unlocked. If it isn’t try to clear your cache and try again. Lastly, we’ve found that people have better success if they open the post or page in the CHROME web browser. When it is ulocked it will look like this (see picture…this is the same page shown above but this is the view once logged into GROW).
Down and Dirty – How to Sign Up or Log In to GROW:
- Visit the blog post or page for the lesson you’re working on (e.g., Lesson 1 or 2).
- Scroll to the pattern section and look for the locked content message.
- If you see a prompt to log in or sign up, click on it:
- If you already have a GROW account, log in with your email and password to unlock the content.
- If you already have a GROW account and are logged in, the locked content will automatically show up for you.
- If you’re new to GROW, follow the instructions to sign up—it’s quick and easy!
- Once logged in, the pattern will unlock, and you can view it on the page.
Important Notes:
- Your GROW account can be used with different designers. I know my friends Briana K. Designs and MJ Off The Hook Designs both use GROW for their content. It was actually Briana who told me about it and recommended I use it.
- Make sure to use the same login details every time you visit the blog to ensure seamless access to the free patterns.
- If you want to learn more about GROW from the people who built it, please visit this site.
