Editorial Policy

Last updated: August 8, 2026

At Get Hooked Co., our goal is simple: to create useful, inspiring, and approachable content for people who enjoy crochet and knitting.

We want our readers to do more than simply find another project idea. We want to help them discover projects that fit their skill level, learn new techniques, choose useful supplies, and feel confident starting their next creation.

This Editorial Policy explains how we create, research, review, and update the content published on Get Hooked Co.

  • Beginner-friendly crochet projects
  • Quick crochet projects
  • Amigurumi
  • Crochet gifts
  • Crochet flowers

Our content is designed to be useful to both beginners and experienced crafters.

Our Approach to Content

We believe useful content should provide more than a collection of links or a list of ideas.

When creating an article, we aim to provide helpful context such as:

  • Who a project may be suitable for
  • Skill or difficulty considerations
  • Materials that may be required
  • Helpful tips and considerations
  • Reasons a project may be worth trying
  • Comparisons between different options
  • Ideas for adapting or using a project
  • Additional resources that may help the reader

Our goal is to help readers make informed decisions rather than simply directing them somewhere else.

How We Research Content

We research information from relevant sources, including crochet and knitting resources, pattern designers, manufacturers, retailers, and other reputable websites.

When discussing a third-party pattern or resource, we aim to direct readers to the original source whenever possible.

We do not claim ownership of patterns, designs, photographs, or other creative work belonging to independent designers or third parties.

When information such as product specifications, pricing, availability, or pattern details can change, we make reasonable efforts to keep the information current.

Pattern Roundups and Recommendations

Get Hooked Co. may publish roundups featuring crochet and knitting patterns created by other designers.

These articles are intended to help readers discover projects that may be interesting or suitable for their needs.

When featuring a third-party pattern, we aim to provide useful information about the project rather than simply reproducing the original designer’s content.

We may discuss characteristics such as:

  • Project type
  • Skill level
  • Materials
  • Style
  • Approximate size
  • Intended use
  • Why the project may be interesting

Readers should always visit the original designer’s website or pattern source for the complete instructions and the most current information.

Original Content

We create original written content, descriptions, recommendations, comparisons, and editorial commentary for Get Hooked Co.

We do not intentionally copy substantial portions of another website’s articles or reproduce copyrighted patterns.

When we reference information or creative work from another source, we aim to provide appropriate attribution and link readers to the original source where appropriate.

Product Recommendations

From time to time, we may recommend crochet hooks, yarn, books, tools, patterns, and other crafting supplies.

Our recommendations are intended to help readers make more informed purchasing decisions.

We consider factors such as usefulness, suitability for the intended project, features, availability, and overall value when discussing products.

Product information can change, including prices, availability, specifications, and customer ratings. Readers should verify current information with the retailer or manufacturer before purchasing.

Some product links may be affiliate links. Our affiliate relationships do not determine the editorial purpose of our content.

For more information, please see our Affiliate Disclosure.

Corrections and Updates

We want the information on Get Hooked Co. to remain useful and accurate.

If we discover an error, outdated information, broken link, or other issue with an article, we may update the content when appropriate.

We also periodically review older content to identify information that may need to be refreshed.

If you notice something that you believe is incorrect or outdated, we welcome you to contact us and provide the relevant details.

Third-Party Content and Links

Get Hooked Co. may link to websites operated by independent crochet designers, pattern creators, retailers, manufacturers, and other third parties.

We do not control these websites and cannot guarantee that their content, instructions, products, pricing, or availability will remain unchanged.

Our inclusion of a third-party website or resource does not necessarily mean that we endorse every aspect of that website.

We encourage readers to review the original source before using a pattern or purchasing a product.

Images and Creative Work

We respect the intellectual property of crochet designers, photographers, artists, and other creators.

When an article references a third-party pattern or project, images and other creative materials are used only where we have the appropriate rights or permission to use them, or where the relevant use is otherwise permitted.

We do not claim ownership of third-party designs.

If you believe that an image or other material on Get Hooked Co. has been used incorrectly or without appropriate permission, please contact us so we can review the matter.

AI-Assisted Content

We may use technology and AI-assisted tools as part of our content creation and research workflow.

These tools may assist with tasks such as brainstorming, organization, research assistance, editing, or drafting.

However, our goal is not to publish automatically generated content without editorial consideration. Content is reviewed and shaped for the needs of Get Hooked Co. readers before publication.

We aim to ensure that published content is useful, relevant, readable, and provides meaningful value beyond simply reproducing information available elsewhere.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial decisions are based on what we believe will be useful and interesting to our readers.

Affiliate relationships or potential commissions do not guarantee that a particular product, pattern, or resource will be featured.

When an article contains affiliate links, those relationships will be disclosed in accordance with our Affiliate Disclosure.

Our Commitment to Readers

We want Get Hooked Co. to be a place where readers can discover new ideas, learn useful techniques, and find inspiration for their next crochet or knitting project.

We will continue working to improve the quality, usefulness, and accuracy of the content we publish.
