[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Making Stories Knitting Magazine Accessible Issue 5

[Cathy Flesher]

Hi Renee,

I am wondering what types of projects are highlighted in this magazine. Also, is it focused towards the beginner, advanced knitter oris it  general for knitters of all kinds.
Is it loom or needle knitting?
I really appreciate you working on making patterns accessible. I have purchased a number of your books on knitting loom knit shawls and they were very good. 
Thanks for your efforts.

May God bless you.
 Cathy F

The accessible version has been created to remove all of the charts and have only written directions. The directions have been formatted to be read clearly with a screen reader. Almost all of the abbreviations have been removed and full text is used so that the directions are read clearly. The photos have alt text descriptions. For people with sight, the text is in all black 22 point Verdana font, single columns with extra spacing to make sure everything is easy to read. We've been working on this issue for about 6 months, and it is the first magazine of its kind. I hope that you will enjoy it! Please let me know what else I can tell you about the patterns and magazine.
