FAQs

Pre-order means that the listing is available for a limited amount of time and the yarn is not yet ready to ship. Pre-ordered yarn will be dyed after the order window closes and orders will be shipped based on the timeline noted in the pre-order listing. You can check the status of a pre-order collection’s production on the Pre-order Status page. We do not accept returns or exchanges on pre-ordered yarn, unless it does not meet your expectations. Please see our return policy below.

We suggest using a no rinse wool wash with lanolin and cool water, then blocking. Follow the instructions on your wool wash for best results.

No. The beauty of hand-dyed yarn is that each skein is unique!! While the dyeing techniques are the same for each skein in a colorway, there will be subtle variations between skeins. Because of this, it is always recommended to alternate skeins in a project that use 2 or more.

Formally known as 'Boo Boos', 'Tails from the Crypt' are beautiful, one of a kind skeins that are either from a mistake batch, a colorway test batch, or the result of using up leftover dyes. They are not replicable, but they are unique and lovely and perfect!!

Minipedes are cute little 20 gram mini skeins!! I call them Minipedes because I think I’m clever and it fits my vibe :)

Not at this time but we are considering doing so in the future.

All yarn is dyed/stored in a smoke free, pet free environment. I do have a cat and a dog at home and their hairs love to travel to work with me so there is a very small chance of pet hairs getting into your order.

YES! I believe that hand dyed yarn should be as accessible as possible. If you are a fat maker you can use the following discount codes to receive a discount on your sweater quantity orders:

ANTIFATTAX10 works for 10% off orders of 6 or more skeins

ANTIFATTAX15 works for 15% off orders of 10 or more skeins

These discount codes are meant to be used for orders of yarn that will be used together in a sweater for fat makers. The option to use the discount on multiple colorways/bases allows fat makers to make colorwork garments and/or garments with yarn held double.

These discounts are offered on the honor system. PLEASE only use these discounts in the nature that they are intended. Abuse of these discounts could result in the loss of this discount for everyone. I am a small business and I cannot afford to allow every order to be discounted. Thank you for your understanding and compliance.
