What are pamphlets?
Pamphlets are smaller or shorter than books. They may be:
- individual sheets
- (sometimes folded like a brochure)
- a few pages stapled together
- booklets of about 10-30 pages
- saddle-stitched
- or perfect bound
They also may be identified as ephemera, grey (or gray) literature, broadsides, or leaflets.
In the knit/crochet community, leaflets are commonly used to describe patterns consisting of single sheets or a few pages stapled together, whereas pamphlets or booklets usually refer to pattern collections about 10-30 pages in length.
Important Note: Some pamphlets are issued ISBNs (International Book Serial Numbers). Common publishers that publish pattern pamphlets with ISBNs include Bernat, Leisure Arts, and Patons.
