It's not unusual for expected delivery dates to be missed. If your parcel has not been received within a reasonable period of time after the due delivery date, you should lodge an enquiry with the carrier as the first step. Once your parcel has left Skein Sisters we have no control over when or how it's delivered. 

General Shipping Details:

We use Australia Post e-parcel or Sendle for our Standard shipping. Express Post parcels are all sent with Australia Post. You can select either Standard or Express postage at the checkout.

We offer FREE shipping on orders over $200 within Australia and to New Zealand (excluding orders that contain oversized items* - shipping on these orders will be calculated separately).

A flat postage rate of $10.00 applies to orders under $200 within Australia and to New Zealand (excluding orders that contain oversized items* - shipping on these orders will be calculated separately). Orders will be sent via standard post.

* Oversized items such as blocking kits, swifts etc have a note on their product page specifically advising they do not qualify for free postage. Postage on oversized items will be calculated and charged separately.

Express Post If you need your fabulous yarn quickly you can specify Express Post at checkout for a flat rate of $16.50 in Australia. New Zealand International Express shipping is a flat rate of $21.50.

Please note that Express Post does not mean that your parcel leaves our store on the same day. We will prioritise sending of your parcel but there may be many others in the queue ahead of you. Express Post refers to the speed that your order is delivered with Australia Post.

International shipping to countries other than Australia or New Zealand is available through Australia Post using their 'Standard International' and 'Express Post International' service. Prices will be calculated at checkout based on the destination and weight of the package.

We take every care in preparing our orders for shipping. We cannot be responsible for parcels once they have left our store. Any queries or follow-up regarding deliveries need to be directed to Australia Post or to Sendle.
