News & Events
January 2025
We've moved! We'll put some pictures in our next newsletter, but that canal in the photo above is now a short walk away!
Our new address is: Unit 12, Lyne Riggs Estate, Lancaster Road, Carnforth, LA5 9EA. The phone number remains the same.
We're now able to receive visitors by appointment, so if you'd like to visit us to access our resources, dip into the pop-up shop, or pick up an order, please do get in touch.
IMPORTANT NEWS! ORDERS TO EU AND NORTHERN IRELAND
Update 11 December 2024
We have been investigating the impacts of the EU General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR) that come into effect on December 13th 2024. We are pleased to be able to announce that we will be able to continue to ship our yarns to the EU and Northern Ireland, as they are exempt from the legislation due to being 'products of animal origin (POAO) not for human consumption'.
However, the regulations mean that we will be unable to ship any other items from our product range to the EU and Northern Ireland, hopefully temporarily until we can find a solution, but that may take some time.
Please do contact us if you have any queries.
Other important information:
Sept 2024 - we are sorry but we are not always able to send 100g colours out on tubes and you may receive these as cones. This is due to issues we are experiencing with the winding machines, we are waiting for an engineer to come and have a look, but it takes a while from East Grinsted! We are hoping to see him before the end of the year. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
eGIFT VOUCHERS. We have decided to give these a time limit of 5 years. Any new gift vouchers will automatically have this applied. If you already have a voucher, it will expire 5 years from the date of issue. You can check what the expiry date is by contacting us - we will need the code on the voucher. The oldest vouchers that are out there still have until April 2025 to be used, so there's a bit of time yet!
