Well, I finally sent an email to Handwoven. I'm waiting to hear back from
them.
I hadn't had a subscription for years & decided last year to subscribe. I
was horribly disappointed. I hate how they pick a topic then do it to
death!!! ie: pets, black & white, the next issue on overshot, etc. From the
pets issue, I found nothing to entice me. Ditto with the latest black &
white issue. More often than not, when they show the alternative 4H info,
there's no picture to see how it will look woven on 4H rather than 8H or
more.
I also got really tired of the notices to subscribe in the mail every few
weeks. Why do those notices keep telling me I need to subscribe when I
already am? What a waste of money!! Then the black & white issue came with a
band on it saying it was my last issue. Nope, I still have another one
before the subscription ends. That was the last straw...
Soooo, my subscription will end & I don't have any reason to subscribe
again. I hope they'll take my email seriously, & not get all bent about it.
I tried to be straight forward without being rude.
I'll probably do another year of SpinOff, just because I'm still a new
spinner & I learn something new each issue, particularly about sheep breeds.
It's pretty obviuos that they're trying to snag the
knitting/crocheting/felting folks. I can figure out what to do with my
handspun yarn; I don't need their help there, and the pages & pages of
peoples skeins got to be really too much. After page 2, I had seen enough.
I, too, appreciated seeing an African American woman on the cover & as a
model in a SpinOff. They'd make me real happy of they continued that.
