FAQ's
Can I just send you a photo of my pattern/List to order?
Yes! Please contact me with a photo of your pattern list, and I will be happy to send you a quote and a custom listing for the wool for your entire project. This is a good option if you require a mix of hanks & skeins.
Do you have a printed colour card?
No, instead there is a set of wool sample cards sold in a handy box set. Please see my other listings to order one! Please note the colours provided online are an indication of shade, these colours are not as accurate as on a sample shade card due to variations on different computer monitors.
