Order online, to be shipped. When placing an order online, our website allows you to easily find your way around the different departments and view the various ranges available, weather you are looking for yarn, patterns, needles, etc. For information regarding each product, click on the image for the various options available such as colours, sizes, types, etc. Select the item you require and confirm how many you would like to order in the Quantity box (and also the required dyelot when ordering yarn) before clicking the Add to Basket button which will then take you through to your shopping basket where you can decide to either checkout or continue shopping and adding other items to your basket. Simply click the basket icon at the top of the page to view the contents of your order. Your order can be amended at any time before checking out. At the checkout, you can either sign in if you have already registered or you have the option to register your details and open an account. Alternatively, you can simply process your order as a guest without saving any of your details. See "Do I need to register before placing an order?" below.

Order online, for collection from our office. Follow the directions above but select the Click & Collect option at the checkout.

Manufacturers will always try to keep knots to a minimum. They tend to be found more in yarn spun from natural fibres than synthetics but it is very rare to get more than a few in one ball. Unfortunately, knots are un-avoidable and part of the manufacturing process.
