Default Buying yarn online from US to Australia

Hello all

I am trying to find a good online site to buy Lion Brand Woolease Thick
and Chunky from. I've found a great poncho pattern on the Lion Brand
site and would rather use the correct yarn instead of trying to match a
yarn here in Australia. So far I have only found Cleckheaton Gusto to
be a close-ish match.

Can anyone recommend any online sites that sell this brand of yarn and
post to Australia. My googling isn't producing many results so far.

TIA
Sarah

I think you can buy direct from the Lion Brand site, can't you?

Sarah,
I don't know if Herrschners ships internationally, but you might want to
check it out.

Thanks for the info. Neither Lion or Herschnerrs ship overseas :-(

I can use the local yarn which is almost the same tension, but it would
be nice to use the correct one.

I'll keep looking
