Yummy Yarn Cakes on eBay

Posted by Crazy Knitter22 at 11:32 am 0 comments

I have listed all my yarn cakes I want to sell from Hobbii and Stylecraft.
From 100% cotton to mixed and sock yarn, in a wide range of colours from bright and summery to Halloween. Many are from discontinued ranges.
Please feel free to have a browse.

I will ship abroad on request but please be aware I only ship tracked.
Just send me a message through eBay. It will not be worth it for just one item unless you really want it and don't mind to pay more for P&P than the actual yarn is. But if you get as close to 2 kg as possible it might be worth it. Also be aware when you add up that you leave about 100g for packaging and the usual % that ball/cakes can weigh more.
Or just leave me a message before you consider buying and I can weigh it for you.

P&P Europe Zone 1-3 
£10 - £16.50 for a 2kg max (250g is between £8 - £11)

Rest of the world excluding USA
£18 - £33 for a 2kg max  (250g is between £11.50 - £14)

USA
I will not ship to the USA because of impending tariffs.

Quick update reg eBay

Posted by Crazy Knitter22 at 12:08 pm 0 comments

 Unsurprisingly eBay has made some adjustments to their buyer protection fee by dropping it drastically for anything less than a fiver. So there is me who was riding it out while others ran off and cried.

I knew this would happen because it was pretty clear they were shooting themselves in the foot. We private sellers are still important even if eBay thought we were just some ballast they could throw into the sea of indifference.

So the yarn I had moved to Folksy is no relisted on eBay. But handmade items will stay at Folksy because I think this is the best place for it for now. I will see what happens when people start buying xmas gifts. If nothing sells from my handmade items they go back to eBay as well.

That's all I wanted to say for now.

Oh, I forgot, I have added sock yarn and probably next week I will be adding yarn cakes if I don't procrastinate too much 😂 and then I have another shedload of knitting books to list.

Regarding my hands, there are days they don't hurt too much but it still feels the pain is just simmering in the background waiting for me to do something stupid like opening a jar and boom! 😬
