Town End Yarns will be closed from 23 April to 28 April 2026. as I’m away at Wonderwool in Wales.  You may still place orders during this period, but they will not be posted out until later that week.

Town End Yarns will be closed during February 2026.  I will be shutting down on 30 January and re-opening in early March.

I will not be replying to emails or post during this time.

I have suspended shipping to the USA.  This is due to the new tariff regime coming into force at the end of August 2025.

The office and shop are closed from 27 February to 4 March 2025.

On 13th December 2024 the EU General Product Safety regulation (GPSR) comes into effect.  Although animal byproducts are outside the scope (because they are covered by other regulations), it is unclear how products made from alpaca and wool yarns will be treated.

I have decided to suspend deliveries to the EU and Northern Ireland until I can obtain feedback on how the regulations are being applied.  I’m sorry about this, but it is already difficult and time consuming to post to the EU and I do not want parcels stuck at customs.

The office is closed from 29 May to 2 June 2024.  I will respond to phone messages on 3 June .

Town End Yarns is moving back to the Lake  District at the end of November.  The last date for placing orders which will be sent out before the move is 24 November.

I will start sending out orders again as soon as I can, sometime in the first week of December.

Town End Yarns is closed from 20th to 26th September 2023.  Online orders placed from 19th September will be posted out when I reopen.

I will be at Yarndale in Skipton over the weekend of 24-25th September with a small selection of socks and yarn.  You will find me on the Wooltops stand, D15, where I’m helping out.

Town End Yarns is closed from 7th to 17th August 2023. Orders placed online from 6th August will be sent out when I reopen.
