Terms of use

By using Crochet & DIY Corner, you agree to the following. These are the terms we ask visitors to observe. Last updated: June 2026.

Personal use of patterns

All patterns published on this site are free to save, print and use for personal, non-commercial projects. Enjoy — that's what we made them for.

Small-scale selling of finished items

You may sell finished items made from our free patterns at small, handmade-fair scale — think local markets, small Etsy shops, craft fairs, and gifting. We ask two things: credit the pattern with a link where practical (e.g. product description), and don't claim the pattern is your own design. Large-scale commercial production requires written permission.

What you may not do

  • Republish the full text of any pattern or tutorial on another site or in a print publication without written permission.
  • Sell the pattern text (as opposed to finished items made from it).
  • Translate and republish patterns without written permission.
  • Remove attribution or claim our photographs as your own.

Photographs

All photographs on the site are original and copyright of Crochet & DIY Corner. You may not reuse them commercially. You may share a Pinterest pin or social share that links back to the original article — that's the whole point of the share buttons.

Third-party links

We link to third-party sites (yarn shops, tool manufacturers, standards bodies). We are not responsible for the content, safety or accuracy of those sites.

No warranty

We publish patterns and DIY instructions in good faith, but handmade craft carries risk (sharp tools, hot glue, small parts). You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of anyone you make items for — especially children under three. See our disclaimer for the full note.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. If we do, we will note the change at the top of this page and update the “last updated” date.
