Our Yarn Bases

All our yarn comes in a hank/skein, although we do offer a ball winding service, if you would like your yarn winding into a neat little cake and eliminate the faff of having to ball up your yarn then simply add this item to basket. This service is £3.50 and if purchased, ALL yarn in your order will be wound into cakes.
