Working with hand-dyed yarn
Because each skein is dyed by hand, I recommend alternating skeins while knitting so that the color is as even as possible throughout your project. I personally like to use the helical method, and you can see a tutorial for it on Instagram here.
All skeins are carefully dyed with acid dye, washed, and rinsed, however, some bleeding may still occur. This is normal.
Each skein is unique and therefore colors may vary slightly from one to the next. Due to differences between monitors and screens, actual colors may also vary slightly from what is shown. We try our best to make our photos as accurate as possible but please be mindful of this.
We always recommend handwashing all knit garments in lukewarm water and then laying flat to dry on blocking mats or a clean towel. If you do decide to wash your garment in a washing machine, please keep in mind that although the yarn is superwash, it should still always be laid flat to dry. Non-superwash fibres can not be washed in the washing machine.

Please note that there may be a chance that you will be required to pay customs fees upon receipt of your order. I am not responsible, and cannot do anything regarding customs fees if you are outside of Canada.
Once orders have been shipped, they become the responsibility of you, the customer. We are not responsible for lost packages, but I will do my best to help answer questions about your shipment. However, if a package is indeed lost, Canada Post should be contacted directly to resolve the issue.
Returns
Please let me know right away if for some reason you are unhappy with your purchase, if it has been damaged in any way, or if you received the wrong item(s). We will do our best to resolve the issue. In all other instances, sales are final. Please know that I make sure to portray the yarn as accurately as possible, but computer monitors may slightly affect what you see on your screen. Please take your time in choosing your yarn, and you can find more information about each base here. If the yarn has been caked or unwound, a refund will not be given. The buyer is responsible for shipping costs, as shipping charges are non-refundable.
Exchanges
At this time we do not offer exchanges. Please refer to the Returns section for more information about your purchase.
Do you offer wholesale?
Yes! Please send us a message via the Contact Us page on our website and we will get back to you as soon as possible about setting up a wholesale order. Wholesale orders are available for local yarn shops as well as Knit-A-Longs (KALs) that you are interested in hosting.
