TERMS AND CONDITIONS REGARDING WORKSHOPS

Workshop tickets must be paid in full prior to attending said class.

Workshop tickets are non-refundable as personalised wool requests (ie: colour) are unique to the buyer and are ordered via a supplier at time of booking. This wool is non-returnable once dispatched to The Chunky Needle. Workshops may get cancelled up to 1-10 days ahead of scheduled class due to fewer than 5 enrolled or host venue(s) closing or ceasing to trade at last minute notice. Options in this situation: (i) attend an alternative date/location (ii) post wool to customer with online instructions alongside a rebate back to the customer covering the missed ‘live’ instruction. Once wool is purchased, a full refund is not possible.

Tickets may be transferable depending upon the nature of booking and the provision of future workshop dates. Each case will be explored individually and all efforts will be made by The Chunky Needle to accommodate individual cases. Requests for transfer must be made 72 hours prior to workshop date. Transfer request does not guarantee compliance.

Wool colour selections will be honored with full intent, however, due to unforseen issues that may arise with supplier, it may be that a colour is not available prior to workshop. The Chunky Needle will communicate any issues with the buyer (via email) and an alternative will be suggested. Should the buyer not communicate a new colour option to The Chunky Needle within 10 working days of the booked workshop, The Chunky Needle will pre-select a close, suitable option. Workshop bookings made after wool selection deadline will have reduced colour options.

Customers who fail to attend workshops should expect to forfeit their wool. However, in exceptional circumstances arrangements for postage of wool may be possible within 7 days post workshop. This will always be subject to an admin fee and full cost of postage and packing.

Merino wool and/or acrylic will be used in all workshops. As merino is hypo-allergenic, issues surrounding allergy, reaction or similar will not be accepted after booking is made. It is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of his/her health issues surrounding wool allergens and any concerns must be informed to The Chunky Needle 72 hours prior to workshop.

Merino wool used for workshops will be un-spun & un-felted. Instruction will be given on how to improve the durability of your merino and aftercare advice will be given.

At short to no notice, a workshop may be cancelled due to inclement weather, acts of god or illness. Should a class be cancelled, every effort will be made to reschedule the event, like for like, within 30 days of the cancelled class. Should this date be unsuitable for prospective students The Chunky Needle will arrange to post your purchased wool to your residence.

COVID POLICY: Workshops cancelled due to Covid lockdowns/restrictions etc. Will not have paid funds refunded. An alternative date will be made available to participants. The alternative date will be made available as close to the original workshop as possible, but in some cases this is not feasible. Participants will be given three options. 1) attend a new date 2) attend a workshop at a different town or venue 3) have wool posted to them with access to online how-to-make videos.

Workshop participants attend at their own risk. All Covid guidelines/regulations will be observed by The Chunky Needle and our partner venues.

Any questions or concerns must be expressed in writing to The Chunky Needle info@thechunkyneedle.com and all attempts to accommodate will be made on an individual basis.
