We at Coordinated Colors know very well that money is tight.
The cost of Gas is off the wall and everything is getting more expensive.

We are doing our best to keep prices as low as possible for our customers.
We believe that buying local and American as much as possible will help all of us in the long run.

We sincerely thank all of you, our customers for your continued support and patronage!
Like so many other small companies,
Coordinated Colors Yarn Shoppe does not want to have to close.
We very much want to continue serving the knitting and crocheting community.

3 Think about which three independently owned stores
you’d miss most if they were gone. Stop in and say hello.
Pick up a little something that will make someone smile.
Your contribution is what keeps those businesses around.

50 If just half the employed U.S. population spent $50 each
month in independently owned stores, their purchases
would generate $42,629,700,000 in revenue.* Imagine the
positive impact if 3/4 of employed Americans did that.

68 For every $100 spent in independently owned stores,
$68 of it returns to the community through taxes, payroll,
and other expenditures. If you spend that in a national
chain, only $43 stays here. Spend it online and nothing
comes home.

1 The number of people it takes to start the trend...you.
