Few people know that Cadence's advanced literature degree includes a minor in African-American Women's Folklore; Cadence has a special fondness for Zora Neale Hurston who spent so much time in Florida and she loved teaching Their Eyes Were Watching God to college students. She would start those classes with this quote from Zora on the board; "I Love Myself When I Am Laughing... And Then Again When I Am Looking Mean and Impressive"

All Sister Ananse yarn is designed and hand dyed by Naima Bond in VERY small batches in her Chicago studio.

Ananse is a spider diety and popular character in African and West Indian fables and folklore. In Akan folklore, Ananse is a clever spider who can bring joy and aid, or mischief and confusion to those around him. He is often depicted as a large spider or as the Andinkra symbol, which resembles a 7-armed asterisk.

Return Policy

To protect you from odd dye lots, odors, or allergens, yarn may not be returned. We want to be sure that each skein you get has come direct from the dyer, to the shop to you. Full priced items other than yarn may be exchanged for shop credit if Fuzzy Goat receives the item within 2 weeks of when you received the item. Curated boxes are not eligible for returns  

To be eligible for an exchange, there must be proof of purchase, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging and in re-saleable condition when Fuzzy Goat receives it. Shop credit will be for the items purchased and not inclusive of shipping. We recommend insuring your package as we cannot credit returns for items that do not arrive.

If you are requesting to cancel an order, within two hours of your order and we have not wound your yarn and it has not yet reached our Fulfillment Maven, we will issue you shop credit for your whole order. (We incur quite a few non-refundable fees from our merchant services as soon as your order is placed)

Thanks for your understanding.
