The Disclaimer Bit…!

Timings are approximate and so don’t hold me to it. Children are constantly interrupting me, and it’s easy to speed up or slow down depending on how happy/cross I am.

The sizes I have written are also approximate and so I will not be held responsible for time spent on creating these patterns or materials used should yours not quite look right. Everyone’s yarn and tension will be different. I am not loyal to any particular brand of yarn – it’s whatever I find in my basket from over the years.

Use these patterns as you so wish for personal use only, both for ideas or using the patterns to make your own. However, your own work is at your own risk. I am not taking responsibility for any personal, child, or other person needle injury or such-like. If using any of these patterns for ideas to make and/or give as a gift for a child, please choose appropriately for the child’s age and ensure your sewing, particularly of buttons, is top-notch to avoid any choking hazards.
