OK, folks now this is a good reason why NFB Krafters Division was started,
not just for fun.
I did not know about these other newsletters and the trouble managing them.
I had written a letter to Knit Picks regarding their newsletter and asked
if they could label things more with words. I don't know if it got their
attention, but surprise, surprise they did change it and it is more helpful
to know what is there.
Please take the time to send a comment to these places and explain the
difficulty we are having with screenreaders and their newsletters or websites.

Oh Terry,in this case I just want to hug you. My favorite newsletter and
web site was Red Heart. Now the links in the newsletter do not work they
moved everything around on the web site, grown. So I use Lion Brand and
they are now or have been moving things around, but they at least keep us
blind in mind. Annie's addict was another site I enjoyed even though it
was
far harder to navigate then red Heart or Lion Brand. So we just keep
adjusting to the web sites updates, screen reader updates, Windows 7,
Windows 8, and figure it out. Some here can offer tips when we figure it
out, that is, while some of us just move on to more friendly sites, soft
smile. Stitch Deva is also a good site but crappy newsletter, for this
little lady's equipment anyway. Yarn-store is a grand site and decent
newsletter. For the sites I love, I am bull dogged on figuring the site
out.
Warm hugs,
Becky and Jake

Why should I have to. I am trying to read the links from the news letter.
I never had to, before!
