This page explains how we create, test and update the patterns and guides on My Crochet Haven.
How we make a pattern
- We crochet every pattern before publishing it.
- Each pattern lists yarn weight, hook size, gauge where it matters, finished size, skill level and estimated time.
- We use standard US crochet terms and follow the Craft Yarn Council standards for yarn weights, hook sizes and skill levels.
- Step-by-step photos accompany tricky steps.
Corrections and updates
If you find a mistake in a pattern, please email contact@mycrochethaven.com. We check every report, fix confirmed errors and note significant changes on the pattern page.
Product recommendations and affiliate links
Some posts contain affiliate links to yarn, hooks and tools. If you buy through them we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products we would use ourselves, and affiliate relationships never decide what we recommend.
Advertising
This site may display ads. Advertisers have no influence over our patterns or guides.
Safety
For baby and children items we avoid small parts that can come loose and note safety tips in the pattern. Always supervise young children with handmade toys.
