[Nfb-krafters-korner] Lion Brand

[Henry Osborne]

Hi Rebecca, no apology is necessary. Sometimes we all need a little jump 
start from our newest members around here.
Jessica Dail offered to help us to draft a letter to Lion Brand, thank you 
for the offer Jessica.
Why don't we write to her off list and bring her up to speed on what Lion 
Brand has and hasn't done so that she can participate in the group more 
fully. Would you like that Jessica?
Just my thoughts.

Rebecca, good idea to add your voice to ours and write Lion Brand. In fact,
gang let's write them again and ask them to fix the web site so it is blind
friendly. Good descriptions of the yarn, easier for a screen reader to
navigate like the old site, that there is hundreds of blind and print
disabled persons who love Lion Brand but right now they slammed the door in
our faces. The last three months I personally bought two hundred dollars of
their products and yarns. You all put what you bought a year or whatever you
wish to say. I miss their free patterns as they would give me ideas how to
make my own designs, for another example. I like to learn new stitches and
even that is nearly impossible for me to access being a strictly screen
reader consumer.

Thank you Rebecca for getting us off our rusty dusty and write Lion Brand
again, smile.

Becky

Hi All,

                I  didn't mean to stir up a  can of worms in suggesting that
maybe Lion Brand wasn't aware of the issue regarding the yarn color
descriptions.  Since I  am fairly new to Krafters Korner I  wasn't aware
that individuals already brought the issue to their attention.
