General information
The content on Pattern Swirl is for general informational and educational purposes. Patterns and tutorials are written and checked with care, but we make no guarantees about their completeness or accuracy, or about the results you will get. Your finished item may differ from the photos depending on your yarn, hook, tension and technique.
Safety
- Toys for babies and young children: buttons, beads, safety eyes and other small parts can be choking hazards. For children under 3, embroider facial features instead and make sure all parts are securely sewn. Always supervise young children with handmade toys.
- Baby items: avoid long cords, loose loops and fringes on items for babies, and never leave crocheted items in a sleeping baby’s crib.
- Tools: use scissors, needles and hooks with care and keep them away from small children and pets.
- Materials: check yarn labels for fiber content and care instructions, especially if you or the recipient has sensitivities to certain fibers.
You are responsible for making sure that items you make are safe for their intended use. If you sell handmade items, it is your responsibility to follow the product safety and labeling rules in your country.
