Accessibility Statement
Last updated: February 14, 2025
At My Yarn Oasis, I believe that handmade joy should be for everyone. That includes making sure my website (www.myyarnoasis.com) is welcoming and accessible to all visitors, including those using assistive technologies.
My Commitment to Accessibility
I want everyone to be able to enjoy browsing, shopping, and learning about my creations with the same ease and comfort. This site has been built with accessibility in mind, following WCAG 2.1 guidelines at the AA level, so it works well with tools like screen readers and keyboard navigation.
Steps I’ve Taken
-
Added alternative text to images so they can be understood without visuals
-
Organized content so it reads in a clear, logical order
-
Chosen colors that meet contrast guidelines for visibility
-
Reduced motion where possible for a calmer browsing experience
-
Tested with accessibility tools to identify and address potential barriers
Some areas of the site may include third-party features—like social media embeds—that I can’t fully control. While I do my best to make all content accessible, there may be occasional limitations.
Accessibility in our physical business
My Yarn Oasis operates primarily online. When attending craft markets or in-person events, we aim to choose venues that are accessible to individuals with mobility needs.
If You Need Help
If you ever have trouble using my site, find something that isn’t accessible, or just have suggestions to make it better, please reach out.
