Last updated on 27 Jan, 2026

USPS shipping rates have continued to increase. I ship everything except 'seed only' orders with tracking. Shipping the lightest weight, small envelope now costs between $5 - $5.89 depending on how far away it is shipping to.

I refund any extra shipping costs that are $2 or more over what it actually costs to ship. Shipping light items under a pound now costs between $5-$8 depending on how heavy the package is and how far it is traveling.

I have a store here on our farmette that you can visit!! It is open Fridays, 9am - 8pm and by appt. Check my Facebook page, where I will post, should there be a reason why the store isn't open on a particular Friday. You can now see and touch all my wool fibers and yarns! I don't have stitch markers in the store because they are time consuming to make and I make them on demand when they are ordered.

I put together everything and ship everything myself. I ship 6 days a week.

Having this little fiber business has been a real blessing to me and my family, and I hope you enjoy looking around.

I have limited international shipping to a few countries, because I recently had 2 international packages get lost in transit and I just decided to limit international shipping to cut the cost of loss of packages.

Thanks! - Anita

Great product and easy starting spindle! Loved the wool that came with, very pretty colors. Great paper and video instructions and I enjoyed it so much I blasted through the fiber it came with and eagerly am awaiting more fiber to keep playing with this nice spindle.

I have not used logwood as a natural dye before. I am excited to try these chips in a bundle dye project. This product arrived quickly, was well packaged and was a generous amount for the price. Very pleased.

The Simple Life

Growing up on a farm in central Pennsylvania, I learned to crochet from my grandmother at a young age and began selling my finished items at a local artisan village when I was older. I worked for many years with women that had fiber animals and spun their own yarn and I always found these women so interesting and wanted to try it myself!

Finally my family moved to a small homestead and it allowed me to finally fulfill my dream of raising my children on a farm and be blessed to be able to raise blue faced leicester sheep.

It is a wonderful thing to be able to share what you enjoy with others and it has been so rewarding to be able to run a fiber business out of my home through Etsy. I hope you enjoy my work, as much as I enjoy making it. You can also follow Walnut Farm Designs on Pinterest and Facebook.
