About

  • Fluffy was out so I thought I'd just make myself at home until she gets back.
  • My favourite time of the day, early morning. No one else awake, a cup of hot coffee and my yarn and hook close by.
  • A rare moment. Smudge wasn't fond of the animals in the house. She passed on at almost 18 and is still missed.

It all started with a chain...

Years ago, I asked my mother to teach me how to crochet. Her being left handed, me being right...I got as far as a chain. During a school play, my character (can't for the life of me remember what it was!) sat and crocheted, by the time the actual performance was over, I had an extremely lengthy chain.

Flash forward. Being pregnant with our first child, I wanted my baby to have a crocheted afghan, so set to work teaching myself to crochet from a book. I finished an afghan as my second project, the mile-a-minute type, with the base of each strip being made of popcorn stitches. After the baby showers were held, Delainey wound up having about 6 crocheted baby 'ghans. I laughed at this, but never once have regretted learning. My husband might regret this: if there's one thing I've learned during my crochet span...yarn multiplies. Like rabbits.

Accepted payment methods

Accepts Etsy Gift Cards and Etsy Credits
Returns and exchanges
Refunds for damages: please contact me immediately if you receive a damaged product. I will need at *least* pictures, so if the envelope is damaged and you suspect the contents may be as well, I suggest a good, clear picture before opening, then good, clear pictures of the damage to the contents. I may need to have the item returned to me, but return postage will be paid for in this case.
Refunds for lost items: be aware of possible delays in shipping time. Refunds will be given for lost items, but not before sufficient time has elapsed to allow for customs and shipping delays which may be out of my hands. This may mean 6 weeks for international packages.
Refunds for 'change of mind': Item MUST be returned and received by me in the same condition it was mailed out in, so be sure to package it well to avoid damage. The refund will not be given until the item is received by me, so if you are worried that it may not make it, I would suggest insurance. IMPORTANT NOTE: in the case of 'change of mind' returns, only the purchase price will be refunded, shipping will not be refunded for these returns.
Payment
At the present, I accept PayPal and Etsy's Direct Checkout only.
I do work outside the home, so even ready-to-mail items may ship 2-3 business days after purchase. If for some reason, you need to cancel before an item is shipped, convo me right away and I can easily refund the complete purchase and cancel the sale.
For larger items such as afghans, I can do a payment plan, contact me ahead of time and we can discuss the terms and timeframe.
Shipping
I ship via Canada Post, and will state the correct purchase price on any customs papers. Any duties are the responsibility of the buyer. Please keep in mind that packages sent overseas can take up to 6-8 weeks to arrive, and could be held up at customs. Although I have had packages reach their destination in about 2 weeks, I have also had one take 6 full weeks. This is not my doing, but the postal system, over which I (sadly) have no control.

Some items may be shipped in an envelope, however, since they are not strictly paper, if they are going outside Canada, they will be charged package rates, not oversize lettermail. Again, this is Canada Post, not me.

I most certainly do combine purchases to ship as one. If you are interested in purchasing multiple items, you can contact me ahead of time and I can edit the listings involved OR, if you've paid, any difference in shipping (as long as it is over $1) will be cheerfully refunded.



**Important note about customs charges: Customs and duties vary from country to country. Please be aware of customs fees for your country before buying as buyers are responsible for such fees.
Additional policies and FAQs
Like something here or in my pattern shop (crochetsal.etsy.com) but not too crazy about the colour? I do custom crochet. Or, if you have something in mind, I may be able to make it for you.
I cannot make items containing trademarked images, since I do not have a license to sell anything like: Disney, Hello Kitty, Harry Potter, Hunger Games, etc.
