I don’t normally write reviews but the customer experience and service given by James is absolutely first class. I will not buy crochet hooks for my wife from anywhere else. Hopefully, this company will continue to flourish!

Excellent service from James
Excellent service from James. One of the items I ordered was unfortunately out of stock with his supplier, so he phoned me (I think it was either the same day I ordered) to ask if I wanted an alternative or a refund. My parcel of lovely items arrived well-wrapped a few days later.

Wonderful website and service
Wonderful website and service. Placed my order in the evening and James sent a message to say it was all packed ready to go about 10 minutes later. I wasn’t expecting that but that was amazing. My parcel arrived two days later, with not a bit of plastic in sight. Brilliant that James is considering the environment too. Great products on the website too, with lots of choice. Many thanks, James.
