The best ever

I ordered on the first order date. Neatly packaged and fast delivery. The quality of the yarns is fantastic; anyone who appreciates high-quality fibers will love Purl Soho. Since I live in Switzerland, I had to pay customs fees afterward. Of the $121.64 including shipping, I had to pay CHF 27.45 in customs clearance fees.
Customer service: A response within 48 hours, friendly, competent, and thorough (in my case, including photos, as I was looking for specific colors). Absolutely top-notch!

Great tee shirt pattern!

I bought a tee shirt pattern recently. It’s so well written and easy to follow. I’m looking forward to starting this project and look forward to being successful.

Ordered a pattern

Ordered a pattern. Got the pattern.

I wish Purl Soho made it easy to print patterns on fewer pieces of paper, fewer color photos, i would buy more patterns and yarn from you if you did.

Over the top personal service

Bad math left me with 2 few skeins to finish my project and I was on a personal cruise up the inside passage to Alaska on our boat. The support team @ PurlSoho were able to coordinate dye lots & shipping for our stop in Ketchikan and I was able to finish my sweater and wear when we arrived in Glacier Bay National Park! Amazing as they kept checking in with me to make it all happen!

quick and helpful responses!

I emailed with a couple of specific questions on the pattern I had just purchased and got a quick and very helpful response, plus encouragement to ask more questions as necessary. I love the instructional videos on the website, too, which are well-paced and clear. Thank you!
