3. Products and Services

CottonLoops sells colorful yarn, thread, crafting materials, crochet and knitting accessories, and related products.

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, images, colors, dimensions, weights, specifications, and availability are accurate. However:

  • Colors may appear differently across screens;
  • Packaging may change;
  • Measurements may have reasonable manufacturing tolerances;
  • Yarn shades may vary between production or dye lots;
  • Product details may be updated without prior notice.

Product images are illustrative and may include props or decorative elements that are not included unless expressly stated.

4. Product Use

Customers are responsible for determining whether a product is suitable for their intended project.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, our products are intended for general crafting and hobby use.

Yarn, threads, accessories, packaging materials, needles, hooks, and small components may present risks to young children or pets. Products should be used and stored with appropriate supervision and care.

CottonLoops is not responsible for damage resulting from:

  • Improper use;
  • Failure to follow product instructions;
  • Unsafe storage;
  • Unauthorized alteration;
  • Use for an unintended purpose;
  • Normal wear and tear.

5. Prices and Currency

Product prices are displayed in the currency selected or presented on our website.

Prices may change without notice, but changes will not affect orders already accepted unless required to correct an obvious error and permitted by applicable law.

Taxes, duties, or other government-imposed charges may apply depending on the customer’s location.

CottonLoops offers free standard worldwide shipping, subject to the Shipping Policy.

6. Pricing and Listing Errors

We reserve the right to correct:

  • Typographical errors;
  • Incorrect prices;
  • Incorrect discounts;
  • Product description errors;
  • Inventory errors;
  • Shipping calculation errors;
  • Technical or system errors.

If a material error affects an order, we may contact the customer to confirm whether they wish to proceed under the corrected terms or receive a cancellation and refund.

We will not impose undisclosed mandatory non-government fees after advertising a price.

7. Orders

Submitting an order is an offer to purchase products under these Terms.

An automated order confirmation acknowledges that we received the order but does not necessarily mean the order has been finally accepted.

We may review orders for payment authorization, inventory availability, shipping restrictions, suspected fraud, pricing errors, or policy compliance.

An order is generally accepted once it has entered fulfilment or shipment, subject to applicable law.

8. Right to Refuse or Cancel an Order

We may refuse, limit, or cancel an order when reasonably necessary, including where:

  • A product is unavailable;
  • Payment cannot be authorized;
  • The order contains an obvious price or listing error;
  • Fraud or unauthorized payment is suspected;
  • The shipping address is incomplete or unsupported;
  • The order appears intended for unauthorized resale;
  • Applicable law or carrier restrictions prevent fulfilment.

If payment has been collected for a cancelled order, we will issue a refund to the original payment method.

By submitting payment details, you confirm that:

  • You are authorized to use the payment method;
  • The information is accurate;
