Terms of use
These terms apply to Yarns Unlimited. By using the site, you agree to use its guidance responsibly and to respect the rights identified on each page.

Craft and product safety
Knitting needles, crochet hooks, scissors, pins, buttons, fibers, dyes, heat, and care products can present risks. Follow product instructions, check for allergies or sensitivities, keep tools and small parts away from children, and supervise anyone who needs help. Wearable items must fit safely and should be inspected for loose parts before use.
Stop using a material or project if it appears unsafe for the intended wearer or setting.
Content, patterns, and licenses
You may read, link to, and quote limited portions of the site with clear attribution. Do not republish the site’s original guides or structure wholesale, remove attribution, or present its site work as your own.
A pattern or source may carry separate terms. For example, the adapted garter neckwarmer pattern identifies its author, source, CC BY 3.0 license, and the changes made for this edition. That permission applies to the licensed pattern edition, not automatically to other Yarns Unlimited content or to material owned by linked websites.
Acceptable use
Do not use the website to break the law, interfere with its operation, bypass security controls, distribute malicious code, collect data in a way that degrades the service, or falsely imply that Yarns Unlimited endorses a product, business, pattern, or person.
External links
External links point to references or useful context. Those websites are operated by other parties under their own terms, and a link does not transfer control or responsibility for their availability, content, goods, services, or privacy practices to Yarns Unlimited.
Changes and questions
These terms may be revised when the website or its features change. The version published here applies when you use the site. Questions, rights concerns, and correction reports can be sent through the contact page.
