Yarn-Paradise

Surprisingly great experience with yarn-paradise. The price of yarn is dirt cheap but the quality was quite good, this was my first surprise. I payed 0.40$ per ball for a wool cashmere blend, I guess i expected to be swindled but i wanted to try. Really nice yarn. The (least expensive option) shipping was done with TnT and it shipped from Turkey to Canada in literally 6 days. 6 DAYS! It cost about 11$ shipping and is proportional to your order.
There are catches.
First you can only order in packs of 4-6-8 balls, basically enough for a sweater, however its so cheap so who cares?
Second, they make a batch of a yarn, sell out then invent another, so DO buy enough for your project.
Third, the color on screen is not always true to the product.

I really recommend them for larger projects, but not for a single scarf.

I ordered from this company and paid the very high shipping charges. My problem is the skeins of yarn is only about a fourth of the size of the regular skein of yarm. I did NOT get a good deal because I would have to order 4 times as much and with the shipping costs I would be better off ordering from another supplier. I was very disappointed as I ordered 4 different kinds of yarn and every one was much smaller than any yarn I have ever bought before. It is true that they weight of the yarn is on the page and I should have paid more attention to the weight of the yarn but I never thought they would make such small amount of yarn. I do feel this company is taking advantage of its customers with the very high shipping costs and small skeins of yarn.

I am in love. I fell upon the website trying to get yarn to make a rug during covid 19. I am making a big rug so when I saw the prices for 4 packs I was in my glory. I paid less for 16 skeins of yarn through yarn paradise as what I would pay for 4 skeins in a store. Thats with the shiping. The yarn is so nice I almost don't want to walk on it. I was surprised that the shipping only took a week. Much quicker than other sites. So many different styles, colors, material to choose from.

My yarn came about a week ago, I thought it was only fare to update the site, I will continue to let you know how things go because I have to order some more of the same colour for a waistcoat I'm knitting (not quite enough)

I've ordered several times from YP and have not had any problems with my orders. I've ordered cotton and wool blends and I've been very happy with the quality, colors and how it knits/crochets up. As others have mentioned, the down side is you have to order in predefined bulk which could be 2/4/6/8 skeins. And you can't mix colors in a bulk 'pack'. So if you want a sweater with a contrasting trim, you will have to order a bulk of the trim color as well. But it really is so cheap, it's worth doing that. For example, my last order was for 28 skeins of yarn (enough for roughly 4-5 adult sweaters plus extra), total cost was about $26, shipping another $20. So about $11 per sweater total. I do wish there was a way to see/feel the yarns in person before buying, but so far I've been getting what I expected. Also would add that you do get an email from turkey regarding payment, but I believe that this is something that is required by law (Turkish), and I've never had to respond or do anything. It's just something that is required for international transactions.

Don't waste your time, energy or money on this site. I ordered a mixed lot of yarn and a few other different types from this site and paid through PayPal. First issue I had was them sending me an email saying it wasn't paid for, so I sent them an email with a copy of the transaction from PayPal stating it had been paid. I then receive a second email from the "Turkey Revenue" saying I owed them money. Once again i sent them a copy from PayPal. They finally confirm that I paid. Second problem they then say they're out of such and such yarn that I ordered, and this was almost a week after my order, so they still have not shipped it. Third problem it is IMPOSSIBLE to change a shipping address. My husband and I work out of state and I accidentally put our home address instead of the address for where were staying. I've emailed this company at least 10 times with no reply. This is all a real bummer because the prices are good and they have some really unique yarn but it's wwaayy to much of a hassle for it so just stay away.
