Order never received
I have purchased from Knitting Network many times with no issues, but this time wasn't very good. I placed an order in good time for same day despatch and paid extra for quicker delivery, but noticed the next day that my order was still showing as 'in progress' so I emailed to see if there was an issue. The following day I checked again and nothing had changed and there was no reply to my email. At this point I sent another email asking for the order to be cancelled and for a refund, and placed an order with another company. I did receive a refund and an apology, but I would have rather had my order. I'm not sure what has changed as when I look as some of the other reviews, a few people seem to be having the same issue recently which is a shame.

I ordered patterns and needles. When they arrived the needles had been bent beyond use so i contacted via chat and within a few days they responded and sent out replacements, excellent service

Have bought alot from your company
Have bought alot from your company. The one negative thing is that there wasn't a copy of my order in the parcel, which I'm sure I have had before.
It makes it alot easier to check what I ordered and what was received.
