Shipping
Preorders are anticipated to ship within 8 weeks of your order date. If there is any deviation to this timescale I will be in touch.
***
Please note that although I try to ensure that the product photos are true to life, colours may vary depending on your monitor or device. All my yarn is hand-dyed in small batches and variations between skeins should be expected. If you buy more than one skein of the same colourway then I will endeavour to select them from the same batch. Due to the individual nature of hand-dyed yarn, I would always recommend alternating skeins or knitting from both ends of the same ball if you are concerned about colour pooling or mismatching.
If you require larger quantities or have any questions then please do not hesitate to contact me.
To keep your items looking beautiful, I would advise hand washing in luke warm water and a mild detergent. Dry flat.
Whilst every effort is taken to rinse all remaining dye from the yarn, there may be a slight colour bleed on the first wash.
