Silk Boucle Single Skeins

£3.25

Please note I am currently unable to ship this item to Northern Ireland or Europe.

Textured silk boucle yarn in skeins of approximately 8 yards, hand-dyed with Procion as shown. Silk boucle is soft and lustrous with a subtle sheen - perfect for couching and adding texture to experimental embroidery. As always, colours are unique and unrepeatable, and I can't guarantee that anything is completely colourfast. Yardage estimates are approximate.

Some of these skeins are from the previous batch, which is why the numbers are out of sequence. I'm keeping this batch at the previous price as I'm currently deciding whether to restock this yarn in the future. These may (or may not) be the last of this type.

Please choose from the drop down menu to select a colour (please note - where multiples exist, they are not identical - just very similar):

TSB1 sunshine - warm yellows
TSB2 warm peach - peachy/apricot tones
TSB3 stone - warm taupes and greys
TSB4 lavender - soft lilacs
TSB5 magenta - hot pinks and deep lilacs
TSB7 medium blue - warm summer blues
TSB8 dark blue - medium-dark warm blues
TSB12 blue/red - mostly bright happy blues with flashes of rose and lilac
TSB15 grey green - medium-pale grey greens
TSB16 blue green - medium blue-greens
TSB17 yellow green - medium greens with yellow/golden tones

The size and shape of the skeins means that they count as a large letter, for mailing purposes - the postage cost is very expensive for a single skein, but you can add several skeins to one purchase for no additional postage cost. It costs the same to post thirty skeins as it does to post one because it goes by weight rather than volume. I also have several other kinds of thread available as single skeins so that you can build your own collection.

UK postage will be via standard first class; all overseas post will be via Royal Mail International Tracked.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION for non-UK customers - please read before ordering:- Please ensure that you pick the correct country from the drop-down menu. Choosing UK, when you don’t live in the UK, will cause the automated checkout to apply UK shipping rates, and this causes extra work for me as I then have to invoice you for the additional amount. You must pay the correct shipping rate for your country, please. I am sorry that I am currently unable to post items to Northern Ireland or Europe.
- Your purchase may be subject to additional customs charges depending on your location. You can use online import tax calculators to estimate what the additional import charges will be before you buy. Please be aware that I have no control at all over how much you will be charged in import duties; it is your responsibility to find out before making a purchase.
- Your customs office may occasionally open and inspect your parcel before delivering it to you. Please understand that I have no control over this.
- When paying by card, please try and remember your purchase when your bank statement arrives. The amount will look different because of the currency conversion. If you initiate a dispute with your bank because you don’t recognise the amount, I have to prove to your bank that you did make the purchase, and I am charged a non-refundable fee even if the purchase was genuine. Please contact me before initiating a dispute if you are in any doubt about your purchase.
