Welcome!
Since I have been away I have been looking into the issues which have cropped up thanks to new regualtions in both the EU and the USA.
I am happy to report that I can now dispatch orders to the EU - hurray!
As for the tarriff situation in the USA. The information that I have gained is that individuals can import upto $800 in a single order before tarriffs and other taxes will be levied. However, as the situation has been changing rapidly, it may be advisable to check for any new rules changes with your customs authorities.
If you have any questions, or would like to discuss a custom order, please contact me at

I saw a wonderful photograph whilst researching for a custom order. The award winning photograph by Ernie Black shows an octopus with its tenticles gently curved around its body, floating facing the camera. With shades of sand, aubergine, white, pale blue and mauve.

I made a set of rolags containing these shades using only Shetland and Corridale fibres. This means that the fibres are not as soft as merino, but they have a crispness and openness that will make them straight forward to spin -excellent for a beginner. You will receive 100g of rolags in the Underwater Stand Off colourway. All of the fibres in this blend will felt. If you do not wish them to, hand wash in cool water.
