I love your yarn and have purchased much and all the instruction that I've received from you loyal employees. I've brought my friends to your store, I'm so sorry and just hate to hear what this ecomomy is doing to such nice hard working people. Please keep strong and try to move forward.

Yes, I'm a packrat, but there was such fabulous information in them.<br />I bought so much stuff from you guys, even though nothing recently...in part because I have such a stash still and in part because both the spousal unit and I are currently unemployed, so no $$. But you can bet I'll find some way to make one final purchase. <br /><br />This is truly the end of an era.FibreJunkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12626501103840334777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4670702810400732447.post-29187877286610513892011-04-22T06:58:04.667-07:002011-04-22T06:58:04.667-07:00I'm trying to access your website, but it says...I'm trying to access your website, but it says there isn't any access.....hmmm.denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17921008975203396469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4670702810400732447.post-86705471510738413902011-04-22T00:31:10.358-07:002011-04-22T00:31:10.358-07:00I'm so sorry to read this news.

I wasn't a major customer but anytime I needed any Jamieson I knew I could place an order and I'd get it in just a couple of days.<br />A couple of years ago we were on our way to a Labor Day weekend in Oregon and I discovered I had left two colors for my Fair Isle at home. My sweet husband agreed to drive 50 miles out of our way to go to your store but we arrived 5 minutes after closing time on Friday night!!! But two of you were just leaving and very kindly opened up again and gave me time to find what I needed. That's customer service!!! I will really miss you and wish you well. Thanks for all the years of excellent service.PatBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4670702810400732447.post-70475547200203416382011-04-21T19:24:39.023-07:002011-04-21T19:24:39.023-07:00I too am sad to see this happen.

I bought my first (and second and third, etc) wheel from your shop. Always enjoyed your friendly and helpful staff and will miss your wonderful store. I think I will probably still have to visit my sister but she is going to wonder why I don't suggest a trip to the "country".

I tried to go to the website to see what can be ordered, but can't access anything, so will try to find my printed catalog - the standard for anyone in the fiber sector!<br />I am so very, very sorry. Please know that you have been the gold standard of fiber resources across the country, not just a LYS. Because of your professionalism, sourcing quality products and fibers, and help to all, you have set the bar very high. Others will have to reach high to fill your shoes, Diane.<br />And may your next endeavor be as rewarding to you as your WW has been to us.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16933105773412843275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4670702810400732447.post-37802447209113604032011-04-16T20:25:06.084-07:002011-04-16T20:25:06.084-07:00Oh @#$%^&*()!
