[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Knitpicks website

[carcione at access.net]

Hi Yolanda.

I see the button, but nothing happens either when I hit space or enter.  What browser did you use?

And how did you get there?  When I type knitpicks.com into Google and hit enter, it comes back with site not found, and the same when I try to link to a Knitpicks pattern from Ravelry.  I’ll fire up the laptop later and see if I can get to it from there.

I thought Knit Picks were bought out by Lion Brand. Anyway, Lion Brand newsletter talk about knit picks.

I have checked it out and it has major issues.  I tried to email them and I couldn’t even get that to work.  I will work on this later.  I will call them.

Knitpicks recently changed their website, and not for the better, as far as I can see.  I can’t find the search button, for one big thing.

Please, if you have a couple minutes, go to knitpicks.com <http://knitpicks.com>  and see if you can find Search, and let me know your results, including what browser you tried it with.

If other people can’t find it either, I’ll contact Knitpicks.  And if it’s just me missing something obvious, then you can set me back on the right path.

 

This is one of the things the leadership committee thinks it would be great to work on—making websites more accessible, or helping our members figure out how to use websites successfully.

Thanks.

Tracy
