We sell goods on our website and don't have a shop on eBay. Our shade cards are property of Irene & Mr.Sheep Co. and cannot be retrieved from our shop unless a second copy is available for purchase. Large orders can be provided with a shade card for free on request and if available. Some of the shade cards can be requested. Yarn samples are not provided. All natural angora yarns (and commercial 100% acrylic "angora rabbit" as well) are fluffy and fuzzy. Angora "blooms" depending on the breed of angora rabbits. There are four main breeds of angora rabbits: English, German (or Giant), French and Satin. French Angora blooms more due to the guard hairs. English Angora needs to be "abused" a little to achieve this bloom. German (Giant) Angora was developed through selective breeding, resulting in a rabbit with very high fur yields. Its fur is strong enough for commercial processing. We sell German and French unbrushed and millspun varieties. Please contact us to double check anytime.

We have this in our plans, but at present, we specialize in hand knit and crochet designs. We don't sell neither handspun nor brushed angora yarns, or angora rabbits' fur yarn you are looking for. Our preference is natural, millspun, unbrushed designer angora yarns for fashion. Look at Caroline Treniti in a cocoon sweater and sequin leggings for Express.com, VOGUE November 2009. Sequins are also an 80s fashion trend as you know. Thank you for your question. Our sample patterns are designs, which were used or are currently for sale in our knitwear boutique. Instructions for some crochet and knit sample patterns become available, when an item is not presented in our boutique's collection. Canada Post's online tracking tool allows you to use the tracking number of your package to access tracking information and confirm the delivery of your item. At the moment of acceptance of your package at a Canada Post’s outlet, your order is created in the Canada Post’s system automatically by scanning and inserting the tracking number of your package in the computer, which is connected to the Canada Post's network database. Then, the next three records related to your order appear, and you will be able to find out: when your item is received by Canada Post plant, when your item left Canada and when it was accepted by a foreign postal administration (if your order was mailed to the US or internationally), and when your item was delivered. Canada Post tracking system is updated daily. If you receive a message telling you that your tracking information is unavailable, it doesn't mean that your item hasn't been mailed. There may be a delay between scanning events and the availability of tracking information related to those scanning events, or an incorrect tracking number was provided by mistake. Please contact our customer service. We are a mail-order shop closed to the public. An adjustment is issued if an overcharge for shipping and insurance exceeds $1.25 (usually, for small orders up to $45). Postage rates are based on the weight and destination of the package, but not on its value. To ship one magazine, we usually pay from $1.50 to $8.90, depending on the weight of the magazine and your postal code. We don't charge a handling fee for Ontario customers. There is no fee for insurance for small orders of printed materials. Shipping rates are calculated online. We accept orders and payments online through PayPal's check-out system. Please use PayPal's eCheck as a payment option, or pay from your PayPal account. PayPal's process for accepting cards is stringent and complicated. This process helps prevent the use of stolen and unauthorized cards. Since this process is very complex, it does occasionally affect valid cards. The refusal of your credit card does not reflect your credit worthiness. Usually, in cases where a valid card fails PayPal's system checks, they suggest that you try another credit card in the system. For most purchases, shipping charges are based on the weight, size and destination of the package. Because freight is calculated automatically as a percent of the value of your purchase, and our website serves customers worldwide, there can be a slight margin of error for orders of 1) one ball with the value up to $5.99, and 2) international orders with the weight over 230 gram (we ship by air, delivery takes 15-18 bz days internationally). If you owe us more than $5.00, we may ask for an additional payment for shipping. Our inventory is listed on the pages Product Index and Last Bag. We don't offer any other items that can be purchased on a special order basis (except Paca-Puf). Our website serves customers worldwide.
