Affiliate Disclosure
How a free pattern site keeps the lights on — told to you straight, because you deserve that.
Last updated: 2026-08-11
Here's the honest deal. Running MyGrannySquare — testing patterns, photographing squares, keeping every page free — takes real time and money. One of the ways we cover it is through affiliate links, and we'd far rather you hear that plainly from us than wonder about it.
What an affiliate link is
Some links to yarn, hooks, and tools on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and buy something, we may earn a small commission — at absolutely no extra cost to you. You pay the same price you always would; a little slice of the retailer's margin comes back to us and goes straight into keeping the pattern library free.
Our promise to you
A commission never buys a recommendation. We only point you to yarn and tools Nora would actually reach for. If it wouldn't earn a place in our own craft basket, it won't get a link here — no matter what anyone offers us. Your trust is worth far more than a few cents.
The programs we're part of
MyGrannySquare takes part in the Amazon Associates programme and similar affiliate programmes with yarn and craft retailers. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
Thank you — truly. Every time you shop through one of our links, you help keep granny square patterns free for makers everywhere. 🌼
