Terms of Service – SockKnit

Introduction

Welcome to SockKnit (“we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of our website at toehurts.com and all associated calculators, guides, and services (collectively, the “Service”).

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of them, please do not use the Service.

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing, browsing, or using SockKnit, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference.

We may update these Terms at any time. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Craft Aids — Verify Against a Real Swatch

SockKnit’s calculators are planning and checking tools for hand-knitting. They apply standard knitting-craft formulas and conventions to the measurements and gauge you enter and round results for readability, so a result depends entirely on your input and on the assumptions of a simplified model. Nothing on the Service is foot-health, podiatric, or medical guidance of any kind — this site covers the craft of hand-knitting only. Before you commit yarn and time to a project, knit a gauge swatch and confirm the numbers match what the calculator assumed.

Description of Service

SockKnit provides free, browser-based calculators and educational resources, including:

A gauge & stitch calculator for scaling a swatch to a project
A sock yarn yardage estimator
A needle size guide and US-to-metric converter
A sock size to stitch count calculator with standard negative ease
A general-purpose cast-on count calculator for circular projects
A row counter with pattern-repeat tracking
Guides, explainers, and reference content on sock knitting

All tools are provided free of charge. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time.

Your Responsibilities

When using the Service, you agree to:

Use the tools in good faith for personal knitting projects, learning, or study
Enter measurements and gauge in the correct units and confirm they describe a valid project
Not disrupt, overload, or attempt to compromise the website
Respect intellectual property rights

You are responsible for exercising your own judgment, swatching before you commit yarn to a project, and confirming important results before relying on them.

Accuracy and Disclaimers

While we aim for correct formulas, we cannot guarantee that every calculation is error-free or suited to your specific yarn, tension, or pattern. Results are estimates based on standard conventions and the figures you provide, and are rounded for display. SockKnit makes no warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

Intellectual Property

All content on this website — text, graphics, logos, tools, calculators, and software — is the property of SockKnit or its content suppliers and is protected by applicable copyright and other laws. You may use the tools for personal and educational purposes; you may not copy, resell, or reverse engineer them, or remove proprietary notices.

Limitation of Liability

In no event shall SockKnit or its suppliers be liable for any damages (including, without limitation, wasted yarn, project time, or other losses) arising out of your use of, or inability to use, the Service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Third-Party Links and Ads

The Service may link to third-party websites and displays third-party advertisements. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, and inclusion of a link or ad is not an endorsement. Your use of any third-party site is at your own risk.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, and you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located there.
