Frequently Asked Questions
Do you refund shipping overages and why does shipping seem so high?
I do refund shipping overages, if it will save you $2.00 or more. I will go ahead and refund the shipping overages. You don't even have to ask.
Shipping does not account for multiple items, which is why it can be very high...I will manually go in, when I package your item and refund you the overages on shipping. Hope this does not discourage you from ordering from Whistle Stop Wool. I will make the shipping right for you. No one wants to overpay for shipping, even me.
What does it mean when you say your wool is felted?
It means that I have washed the wool so it has shrunk. This tightens the fibers and helps prevent fraying for people that do wool appliqué and rug hooking. Think of the time your sweater was thrown in the dryer and it came out the size for a doll. So if you want wool that has not been felted, you can send me a custom request and I might have bolts that I have not washed all of the yardage.
Why does my wool look different than what I saw on my computer?
Computer monitors are just different in how they depict color. Know that there will be some differences. Please read the description of the item where I will also describe the color if necessary. If it is just horribly wrong, please contact me and I will make it right.
