Delivery, Payment & FAQ

Answers to the questions we hear most on WhatsApp. Can't find what you need? Message us and we'll help.

How long does an order take?
Every piece is made to order by hand. Standard items typically take 4–6 days; custom orders or larger pieces (like queen and king throws) may take 1–2 weeks. We'll confirm your exact lead time on WhatsApp when you order.
How do I pay?
We accept EFT and cash on collection. For custom orders, we ask for a 50% deposit upfront to begin work, with the balance due before delivery or collection.
How is my order delivered?
We deliver via courier (PUDO/Paxi or a local courier, depending on your area) or you can arrange collection with us in Johannesburg. Courier costs depend on your location and are quoted separately from the item price.
Can I request a custom colour, size or design?
Yes — message us on WhatsApp with what you have in mind. We'll confirm feasibility, price and lead time before starting your order.
How do I care for my crochet item?
Hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent, avoid wringing, and dry flat away from direct sunlight to keep the stitches and shape looking their best.
What is your returns policy?
Because every item is handmade to order, we're unable to accept returns or exchanges for change of mind. If your item arrives damaged or with a manufacturing defect, contact us on WhatsApp within 48 hours of delivery and we'll make it right.
