These brochures are distributed during international exhibitions and are available in the showrooms of numerous marketing organizations. Stoll maintains an extensive pattern archive which consists of patterning samples ranging from the latest trends to samples that are several decades old. The online Stoll pattern shop provides these patterns to download for viewing or individual development.
