Announcement
Like to support small businesses? So do I, which is why all the fibre that goes into my hand spun yarn is purchased from other small businesses. That means you can treat yourself, or a loved one, to something special completely guilt-free.
I like to think that my yarn and other products are helping you, or someone you love, get creative with some form of crafting, be it knitting, crochet, or weaving! Each one of my items is a unique one of a kind creation. If you have custom requests, I’d love to help out!
With international orders taking considerably longer due to so many countries in lock down, services running slower, the red tape from Brexit, and postage costs increased as a result, I’ve temporarily stopped all international orders. This is under constant review, so do stop by to get updates on this situation.
Thanks for stopping by. Please Stay Safe!

About knitsummore
-
Computor corner of my studio where the occational blog posts are written, and all my photo editing takes place.
-
The shear volume of knitting magazines and other paraphernalia is hidden from my hubby in the bookcase.
-
My knitting machine table is within reach, just by spining my chair around.
-
A little of my wool stash above the table. Plenty more under the table, but it's not nearly as pretty to look at.
-
The best companion by far, most often snoozing under the desk, but sometimes demanding attention.
For craft lovers, knitters, crocheters, and weavers: Treat yourself!
Hi, welcome to my shop.
I’m Tracey and I’m what you might call a ‘pusher’. No, we’re not talking drugs here 😂. We are however talking about another addiction- YARN 🧶! I go out of my way to create hand spun yarns that other crafters can’t resist, and their reviews prove it. To be fair, I find it pretty hard to part with them myself 😉.
I’m a fugitive from the corporate world of IT, who now runs a craft business. I’m an accredited Knitting For Teacher, teaching knitting, crochet, weaving, and nalbinding. When I’m not teaching, I’m spinning yarn, or creating other crafty goodness.
My Etsy shop is a creative outlet, and you will find goodies that I've enjoyed making, and hopefully you will enjoy providing a loving home to! You'll have to come back often to see what gets added. I’m sure you’ll find something that pulls on your heart strings, either that perfect gift for your crafty friend, or something uniquely you.

Privacy
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorised Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order, for example), if you contact me directly.
Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It:
I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;
if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
Business transfers. If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.
Compliance with laws. I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.

I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for the following time period: 5 years after the 31 January submission deadline of the relevant tax year.
Your Rights:
If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:
Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.
Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal reasons) I will generally delete your personal information upon request.
Object. You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
Complain. If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.
