Copyright & Fair Use Policy

Introduction

Patterns Here is a digital platform dedicated to sharing crochet and quilt inspiration.
We feature creative projects, videos, and patterns with the goal of promoting artistry and supporting designers within the fiber arts community.
We are not a marketplace and do not sell or redistribute copyrighted materials.


Content Nature

Our content includes reaction videos, commentary, and edited clips sourced from public posts and creators within the crochet and quilt community.
All materials are transformed through original editing — including text overlays, cuts, captions, background music, and contextual commentary — in full accordance with fair use principles.

These posts are intended for inspiration, education, and community engagement, not for redistribution of original works.


Credits and Sources

Every designer and pattern featured on Patterns Here receives proper credit.
All visitors are redirected through our website to the original official sources, such as Etsy, Ravelry, or the designer’s own site.

Patterns Here does not claim ownership of any third-party work and always ensures that authorship remains visible and respected.


Offerwall & Redirect Process

Visitors may occasionally encounter an offerwall or brief engagement step before being redirected to the official source.
This process does not alter or replace the designer’s original link — it exists solely to help sustain the platform through advertising or engagement-based monetization.

Every visitor ultimately reaches the original pattern page, whether it is a paid Etsy listing or a free resource officially provided by the designer.


No Redistribution or Sale

Patterns Here does not sell, copy, or distribute any paid or copyrighted patterns.
Only publicly available or free content already shared by its rightful creators is ever featured.

We never provide downloadable files, written instructions, or paid materials without authorization.


Copyright Claims & Contact

If any creator believes their copyrighted material has been used improperly, we encourage direct communication.
Please contact us through:
📩 Instagram DM — @patternshere or via the contact form available on our website.

All legitimate claims are reviewed promptly, and we will remove or adjust any content when appropriate.


Legal Basis (DMCA & Fair Use)

This website operates under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and fair use principles established by international copyright law.
Fair use allows for commentary, reaction, educational reference, and transformation of publicly available content.

All Patterns Here materials are created and shared in good faith — to celebrate creativity, promote designers, and inspire the crochet and quilting community worldwide.


Disclaimer

Patterns Here is an independent editorial platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to any designer, brand, or marketplace unless explicitly stated.
Our purpose is to inspire, educate, and give visibility to fiber artists — never to mislead or infringe upon anyone’s creative rights.
