Yes, we certainly do! Please contact us by phone or email, or by using the query form, letting us know who you are, the name of your business and based on your required quantities we can provide our designer pricing.
The majority of our yarns are on our website. However, if you are looking for a specific yarn or for example bought a yarn from us a few years ago and can’t find it online anymore then please get in touch via phone, email or post (if it’s a yarn previously purchased from us and you have any ends left then please forward a sample to us in the post). We’ll definitely try and help you find what you are looking for!
Yes, many of our yarns, including our mercerised cotton are now used widely for crochet.
This is a question we get asked all the time!! All our machine knitting yarns are on cones.
Some of our hand knits are also on cones as well as on balls. By using cones for hand knitting you are actually saving costs, which is reflected in our pricing and you’ll also be glad to know that knitting from a cone reduces the number of knots in your knitting.
And we’ll let you into a little secret – all wools you buy on balls actually start life on cones! So we are simply cutting out a process, with the quality just as good, which is reflected in the number of customers now hand knitting direct from our cones.
If you are a small business and can order 12kilos to 30 kilos depending on yarn in one colour or we can dye to your specific shade, no problem.
