      Hi,

      I just ordered a kit yesterday morning (5/6) and am having it shipped to the US. Do you know approximately how long the shipping would take?

      Kyoko said...

      Hi May!

      Thank you for your order ;D
      Post from the UK to the US takes around 5 working days. It ranges from 3-7 days depending on the location and season. Hope this helps!

      I am interested in buying a few of your patterns.

      If the colors for the Macaroon Purse are sold out is it still possible to buy the pattern instructions without the kit? Thank you.

      Hi Julia,
      From my webshop, it is £6.50 for international signed for to Germany. This is because we are having a postal strike on 22nd and 23rd October (09) in the UK so that all the packages are tracked.
      e-mail me if you have any questions! :D

      Hi, i would like to buy this pattern, i have one question though: the purse frame that i have is 16 cm, not 16,5 cm, like yours. Would this pattern still be ok for me? Would you perhaps advise me on what adjustments i would need to make? also, i would like to knit a 11 cm long purse, can i use this pattern for it?
      last question: how much does a postage to Germany cost?
      thanks.
      Forgot to give my email address for the reply! It is

      thank you

      Hello!
      Regarding your 16 cm frame, I can't guarantee that it would work as I have not seen the actual item. Having said that, 0,5 cm different is small, so you could try. Please bear in mind that the width of the gap of the frame should be big enough to take the yarn, fabric and interlining.
      If you use your 16 cm frame, I would just decrease 0.5 cm width from the centre for the fabric part. I think this would be the easiest way of adjusting it. For knitting, you could reduce 1-2 sts on the side to make it subtle.
      For the 11 cm long purse, I presume you mean 11 cm in height. This is the case, continue working for a little longer before shaping for the top. can i use this pattern for it?
      The pattern is download only from this site.

      Hope this helps! (also sent you an e-mail)
