Shipping Update // New Flat Rates, Free Shipping, Tariffs & Challenges

I have been working on a batch of Cashmerino 20 while I mull over the new tariffs and how they will inevitably change my small business and so many others like it. It is refreshing to do something I love and do it well amongst all of the uncertainty. A bit of a reset and a lovely reminder that at the end of the day we will always have yarn to enjoy around the studio. I have a few ideas for the future and many great resources thanks to this wonderful community of makers. For now challenges remain and I thank you for your patience as I navigate through these changes. I anticipate the next shop update to happen towards the beginning of October and will include a variety of colourways of Cashmerino 20. If there is a colourway you have been waiting for leave me a comment below and I will try to include it on my list.

I have also added new currency options for some countries to our website. You can select your currency from the drop down menu found at the top right of the page and bottom left footer. If your country and currency are unavailable prices will default to CAD.

Thank you for your continued support and patience during all of these disruptions. It has been a year!

Canada Post Strike

In the event of a Canada Post strike your order will be sent via UPS or FedEx. During a strike we are unable to ship to PO Boxes and some rural addresses and will hold your order until the strike ends. Due to high international shipping costs, some international orders may be held until Canada Post resumes shipping. Canada Post updates can be found here on their website: https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/cpc/en/our-company/news-and-media/corporate-news/negotiations-list.page

Shipping Outside Of Canada

Duties, Taxes & Refused Packages

International orders may incur duties, taxes and fees upon arrival and the recipient will be required to pay them directly upon delivery. If the recipient refuses payment and the order is returned to us we will offer to reship the order for an additional shipping payment. If you would like to cancel your order a store credit will be issued minus the initial shipping payment as well as the return shipping payment we must make to receive the return.

USA

All of our yarns are USMCA/CUMSA compliant (milled and hand dyed in Canada) and are eligible for free trade (no tariffs) under the current agreement. Canada Post is unable to process tariff exemptions at this time, as a result we will be shipping with UPS/FedEx until further notice. If you have any questions or have shipping preferences please send me a message.

United Kingdom

A minimum purchase amount of £135 (approximately $250 CAD) has been set in order to comply with the UK VAT rules. Orders below this threshold require us to be registered to collect VAT at check out, which we are not at this time. For orders above £135/$250CAD UK customs will charge and collect the applicable sales tax and customs fees directly from the recipient upon arrival. The recipient is required to pay these taxes and fees. For further review please refer to: https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty
