I need some feedback from knitting friends...
I'd like to get outside opinions from knitting enthusiasts on my new
web site. Please don't mistake this for an advertisement, because it is not. I'm trying to get feedback so I can make some important decisions regarding the site, www.vintage-knitting-patterns.com. If anyone would be so kind as to help me out, I would be very grateful. I'll even give you a digital download of a wonderful pattern book full of stoles and shawls. But, PLEASE don't feel you have to make a purchase. You can if you like, but that is not the purpose of this post. I just need feedback, and I'm willing to make it worth the 60 seconds it will take you to provide it. Thanks, Dale & Tabitha G. |

OK, I did it. Just out of curiosity, where do YOU get the vintage patterns? Katherine |

A few things I noticed:
The calendar doesn't work in Mozilla I like so many of us are using popup blockers so I didn't see your plea to take the survey. IMNSHO, you'd be better off changing the color of the text that you want to empahsize instead of surrounding it in yellow. I'd prefer the 'click here' options to precede 'add to my shopping cart' p.s. somewhere in a box is a picture of me in a hat just like the one showing at the top your page. |

I have multiple copies of some of those and have never had to pay over
50-cents for any of them. It comes of buying "bundles". I won't discuss how many extra sets of knitting needles I have available for students or trade or whatever. Putting several old pattern books together on a single CD, like JCS did with patterns, that'd make a reasonable $20 purchase, in my opinion. Diane Hare |

Dale, I only have one problem with your site.....it's under the quiz...
..Question three 3. How much do you usually spend for a Knitting Pattern Book on the Net? and my answer is below: I have never bought Knitting Pattern Book downloads on the Net. I picked this answer because altho I buys lost of knitting books on the web, I have never bought a knitting pattern that "downloads" on the net!!!! so when I got to question #5 How often do you buy Knitting Pattern Books on the Net? My answer was I buy about once a month.....BUT I received a message saying there is a conflict between question #3 and #5!!! It made it difficult to give an accurate answer.

I'd like to get outside opinions from knitting enthusiasts on my new
web site. I never buy a knitting book based solely on it's cover, not even a $5 magazine. I am not at all tempted to buy a $20 download based on the cover and brief descriptions of the contents. Being able to click on the book, to see at least some of the contents on a linked page would sell the books a lot better. Plus, just in general, $20 is a lot of money for something you have to pay again to print (paper and ink/toner and electricy for up to 55 pages adds up).

I was a bit confused by the 2 related questions... "what is almost too much
to pay" and "how much should we charge" I really think the cost should be related to how old and rare the patterns are. On a side note, I was excited to see one of the patterns in the free download. the pink, called Beacon Hill, my mother made for me as a child (mid 50s), but called it a shrug. I will make some for my granddaughters. Thanks Bea "Dale" wrote in message om... I'd like to get outside opinions from knitting enthusiasts on my new web site.
