It was a very positive experience. From order to delivery was no more than 3 days that’s counting the weekend! Truly impressive and much appreciated since I wanted the yarn before a trip. Great attention to details and beautiful presentation (although not necessary for it in a box). Also a little surprise present that was not expected at all. Thank you Cindy!
What a wonderful experience from this store. My order was out for delivery the same day with personal attention. It was wrapped beautifully and I received a personal thank you note and gift with my order. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thanks Cindy.
I spent a little time on your website becoming familiar with what you had. The site was easy to go from one type of brand to another.
I got my order within days. I was totally impressed with this! It was nice to open my order and see the way it was packed. It showed my that someone cared about my order. Being wrapped in tissue paper was a nice touch.
The fact that you are a Canadian company is what drew me to you. In these economic times I am certainly only buying Canadian companies.
Great service and communication! I will be a repeat purchaser!
Gorgeous wool yarn that was shipped out really quickly ❤️ I can't wait to knit it!
I was impressed with how quick the service was, and how nicely paked my items were.
I received my order quite quickly and am very happy with it!
Prices were great, quality was fantastic, shipping was quick...I will definitely order again and recommend to others.
I’ve ordered from The Wool Pirate twice in the last 6 months. Each time the order was easy to place, packed up quickly, and arrived within the timeframe promised. And each time there was a little note from Cindy! I will definitely order from The Wool Pirate again. 😊
So lovingly packaged, lightning-fast shipping, and the quality of the yarn is second to none! I've been coveting this yarn for awhile, so when Cindy kindly offered a newsletter discount to celebrate her birthday, I knew it was a sign to finally leap on the Duncan colourway. It's even more beautiful and sheepy in person, and I can't wait to knit a jumper with it. In the meanwhile, I keep a skein close by to cuddle as my emotional support yarn! Thank you, Cindy! I can't wait to shop at the Wool Pirate again very soon!
The yarn was very well packaged with a cute note. Shipping was also very efficient, I received my order in less than two business days! I would definitely order again.
Good and quick service
Everything as good as I expected or even better
Looking forward to explore more
The Wool Pirate offered a yarn I had been eyeing for a much more reasonable price than I had seen at my regular LYS. I will definitely shop here again!
Beautiful yarn. Super knowledgeable shop owner. My favourite LYS!
Cindy makes everyone feel special. Her orders are beautifully wrapped, accurate, and delivered very quickly. I highly recommend her service.
