Love this company

Love this company. Placed a large order in a number of different colours, different weights of yarn. They match your Lott numbers to ensure you receive the same shades in each colour if you choose. Dispatched day after placed order, received the following day, you can even choose your carrier. Received in gorgeous organza bags, well packaged in a box. I look forward to being a loyal customer for years to come.

I have used Wool Warehouse several times, this time I ordered the wrong colours. I returned them with a note explaining what I needed and WW sorted the colours out that was most suitable for my project.

Brilliant shop for crafters

One of my favourite shops, I’ve been shopping with them for years. I buy lots of fabric for my business and wool for my hobbies, the prices are good, delivery is always quick and on the rare occasion there’s an error with my order, it’s always rectified efficiently.

Hello Mandy,

Thank you for your feedback, we try to be as honest as possible regarding our dispatch times. The delivery option selected on your recent order was Royal Mail, this is not classed as next day delivery, the DPD priority is our next day delivery service charged at £5.95.

We do hope you will continue to shop with us!

Happy crafting :D

Kind regards,

This is my favourite Yarn supplier

This is my favourite Yarn supplier. They have a great range and are usually the least expensive of all the UK online knitting supply sites. Sometimes it takes a few days for stuff to be shipped but they are very clear about that when you go to checkout and I don't mind the wait at all. Customer service is speedy and very friendly. I had a query and it was dealt with swiftly. I'd recommend anyone to start with Wool Warehouse first, before trying any other online knit & yarn store.

Great customer service

Have ordered from WW several times and always been happy. Last time, I realised just after order had been placed that I had ordered the wrong colour. Emailed them immediately and received a reply on the next working day saying that order had been amended. Delivery time as expected. Thanks WW

Very slow delivery and bad quality

Very slow delivery - 7 days - and skeins of cascade 220 fingering are completely tangled.

Reply from WoolWarehouse

Hello,

Due to an increase in orders, this has delayed the dispatch of our standard post orders, please accept our apologies for this. We have notices on our website alerting customers of the delay.

Regarding your tangled Cascade 220 Fingering yarn, it would require winding into balls either by hand or with a yarn swift and ball winder, if it is used straight from the skein it will unfortunately tangle. However, if there is an issue with your yarn, please send us an email to 'sales@woolwarehouse.co.uk' and we can look into this further for you.

Kind regards,
Wool Warehouse

Disappointing Despatch Time

It’s been a while since I ordered from WW as I switched to buying WI yarn from HC. I placed an order last Wednesday but sadly it still hasn’t been shipped yet. Not ideal when you’re keen to start a new project. It seems a little unfair that if you pay for the more expensive courier option that an order despatch will take priority over one choosing standard delivery. Not every one can afford to pay for next day delivery and this experience has made me think twice about ordering from them in the future.

Hello,

We are sorry to hear you have been disappointed, this is usually our quietest time of year and we have had a higher number of orders over the past few weeks, which has been unpredictable. However, we are working our way through the orders as quick as we can.

We have a few notices on our website, to notify customers before placing an order that there will be a delay in despatching orders, and it is the customers preference to use the DPD Priority option if they need the items more urgently.

Sorry again for any delays caused.

Kind regards,
Wool Warehouse

Knitters' Heaven!

I was a tiny bit hesitant to place an order having seen the sprinkling of single stars but I've used W/W on several previous occasions with no problems so I went ahead. If I say I primarily knit for newborns and I was down to my last few metres of white you'll understand how much I was relying on you. But I needn't have worried as my parcel was quickly and efficiently delivered by Royal Mail this morning with everything correct. An excellent selection of baby 4-ply including some unusual colours suitable for the more adventurous young mums! The price of yarn has generally skyrocketed since COVID but I don't think I'd get a better deal anywhere else.
I've just had a message in red warning me I'm not reviewing a past experience - but today IS 1st August (changed to 31st July to appease the system).

their .pdf's do not fit onto A4

I ordered 3 x .pdf online knitting patterns to download tonight. They chopped the bottom lines off the pattern when printing onto A4.
Whatever method I tried to download them (fit to printable area, 90%, shrink to fit) they would not print the whole pattern. No use a part-pattern when knitting! I've requested a refund.

Thoroughly impressed

I will absolutely order from Wool Warehouse again! I live in a very small town and I was throughly impressed with not only to quality of the yarn, but also the quick delivery! I cannot believe how quickly it came. I am truly astonished. All of the yarn I need for any projects from now on will be ordered from here. I HIGHLY recommend.
