Policies

shipping :

I ship from Australia using Australia post

when possible, I ship orders  of small items, yarn and fibre under 150 grams flat packed in vacuum sealed bags.
this method reduces shipping costs and shipping times as the packages fit into regular letterboxes.
bulkier international orders will be packaged in the most secure and economical method available.

I post to Australian destinations using flat rate satchels.
please note that buyers are responsible for any and all duties and customs charges that may be incurred.
I will ship purchases within 3 BUSINESS days of receiving CLEARED payment.

delivery times obviously vary. allow time related to your delivery address.

if you are not satisfied with any item(s) you purchased from me, in any way, please send it back within 10 days of receipt, unused and in its original condition with all tags attached.

I will refund the purchase price plus original shipping, but not return shipping, to your paypal account.

if your order value is over aud $100 I suggest that you insure it.

additional policies and faqs:

most of my products are hand made.
as with all handmade items, there may be irregularities within each item.
the fibres that I dye myself are mostly colour fast.
other fibres I use come from varied sources and I cannot control the dyes used in these materials.
although I wash all my yarns after spinning, be aware that some bright coloured blended yarns, particularly those containing sari silks may bleed dyes.
recommended treatment for all my yarns: hand wash with colours separated in tepid water with a gentle wool wash and dry flat in the shade.I sometimes use whole fleece locks in my products, as these locks come from healthy farm animals, there may be slight vegetable matter present.
please note that I do my best to ensure the colours of my items are represented in my photographs as accurately as possible.
colours can vary on computer monitors.
