US Shipping is back!

Good news for my American yarn friends: I can post to the USA again!

Thanks - presumably - to a lot of all-nighters being pulled at Royal Mail, shipping across the pond is officially back on the menu.

What's the damage?

I'm as happy as this little dude

10% of the price of the goods (this is the IEEPA tariff, acronym fans)

50p Royal Mail handling fee (charged per parcel, not per item)

I collect both of these from you at checkout then I pay them to Royal Mail when I buy the postage, and you don't get charged anything else further down the line.

What you'll see at checkout

When a customer selects USA as the shipping address at checkout, they'll see a line adding a 10% charge. The 50p handling fee is already built into the shipping cost.

As an example, a £25 yarn club order would work out as an extra £3 overall (just over $4 at today's rates)

US Shipping Times

I've heard from other indie sellers that the mail is moving again and starting to get through, but please do be aware that things may take a bit longer for the next little while as things settle down. I send everything with International Tracked which is supposed to take 6-7 days but it's a bit of a moveable feast!

What about other destinations?

I still can't ship to the EU at the moment (boo), but I currently post to the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. With the exception of the US tariffs, I don't collect or remit any other duties or taxes so as always please keep an eye on your country's rules!

OK, let's go shopping!
