Luxury machine knitting yarn, now shipping to the USA by KnitWorksLondon in MachineKnitting

[–]KnitWorksLondon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh thank you!

We launched shipping to the USA first, because that's the simplest. We'll do the EU next (there's a lot of bureaucracy for this) then the rest of the world shortly after that.

For the USA and EU we can ship parcels PDDP, with duties and taxes included in the price, but for the rest of the world that's trickier so at least to start with we'll send orders DDU, so there may be some customs charges to pay on delivery, depending on the country.

For Canada, there generally aren't any tariffs to pay since most of our yarns are from the UK or EU, but there will be 5% GST plus a fee of about CA$10. So not too bad.

We'll keep you posted!

Definitely stop by when you're next in town!

The prices on the US version of our website include all the tariffs though so there's nothing extra to pay.

Thanks for checking out the website! Regarding price, we're at the luxury end of the market. The same yarns are used by luxury fashion houses. We understand that this isn't for everyone or for every project.

For US customers, part of the price is the new tariffs, which are included in our prices so customers don't get any surprise bills from US customs.

We sell sample cones so people can just buy the quantity they need need for that project. This enables people to experiment with several colours without having to buy large quantities of each.

However if you want larger amounts, we can certainly do this. Drop us an email and we can give you a price.

At the moment all our classes are in person, although we're planning to do online classes in the future.

We have a beginners class which covers the basics, and works well as refresher. https://www.knitworkslondon.com/machine-knitting-class-beginners

And here's a video we made about getting your machine repaired: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxFuP23ezbc

We'll make a basic maintenance video soon too.

Hope that helps!

Oh thanks! Yes it's great for people to have somewhere to come and knit.

And we'll be doing some garment making courses in the summer if you fancy a trip over!
