The Tip is 'Before You Buy' Made in America Secrets tries to send you to internet stores that sell the Made In USA products you searched for. We try to link you directly to only Made In USA products, however sometimes this does not happen. When you click our banner / link ads the store we link you to may show you products that are imported alongside those that are Made In USA. We all know most retailers sell products that are made and come from all over the world including the USA. Therefore, our tip is look at the details before you buy the product. This is true for both brick and mortar stores and internet retailers. Any Made in America store that represents selling only Made in USA products can be believed but check them anyway. They will appreciate your help. Here is a great example of a very reputable Made in America Store. Our site is similar to a few others that I call "Indexers". These sites offer lists like an index. These indexes relate companies to the products they sell. There are a few, like this site, that provide an index of Made in America companies and their products. You can use the indexes (like I have done at times) to find a particular product and the companies that make it. Our site has many features like our buy tips that are unique and valuable. We add buying tips regularly so don't forget to check them out, as they will help you find and buy great Made In America products. Some of these sites are a good resource if you are looking for the manufacturer of a specific product. However you should first check their accuracy because some are not maintained as well as others. Some allow inaccurate and inappropriate ads, others like Made In America Secrets maintain the accuracy of their indexes and do not allow inappropriate advertisements. We continually try to improve our links and we solicit your help and ideas to make our site even better. You can contact us by email, mail, or phone and we will try our very best to respond promptly. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Lion Brand Yarns Famous for Quality Since 1878 Founded in New York City, Lion Brand Yarn Company is a 135 year-old brand that has been family owned and operated for 5 generations. The company is devoted to inspiring and educating knitters and crocheters with yarns, patterns, how-tos and ideas that elevate their yarn crafting experience. Year after year we drive innovation in the yarn business and pursue excellence in the quality of our products. The history of hand-knitting in America can be written by the yarns we have introduced: Lion Brand's wool yarn was the first yarn to receive the coveted Wool Mark for excellence, Jamie Baby yarn was the first non-commodity baby yarn that offered the first free pattern and color image on the label, Jiffy was the first non 4-ply fashion yarn for the mass market, Homespun began the trend for novelty yarns in the mass market and is still a favorite American made yarn after more than 10 years. Fun Fur ignited a craze and helped bring knitting back into popularity for a younger consumer. Vanna's Choice is the first celebrity licensed yarn with a portion of the proceeds going to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. You can count on the fact that the next breakthrough in yarns will come from Lion Brand! Lion Brand is renowned for its pattern support, which is a source of inspiration for yarn lovers. We offer patterns to the public through magazines, branded books with major publishers, as well as our web site, which offers 5,823 free knitting and crochet patterns, with more added every week. Our publishing partnerships have included both magazine and book publishers. We were involved in launching Knit.1 with Soho Publishing -- the first knitting magazine to target the 20 to 35-year-old audience and it has sold out each issue -- an unprecedented result in magazine publishing. We also partner with Clarkson Potter, Leisure Arts, Random House, and Soho Publishing to produce books that are distributed to bookstores around the country, as well as craft shops and other key yarn retailers. The Lion Brand web site is the most visited site on the Internet of those that feature yarn. Over 1 million weekly e-newsletter subscribers receive up-to-date information about new products, information about knit, crochet and craft techniques and special offers, as well as knitting stories, e-cards, and a popular comic called Lola. Lion Brand yarns are available throughout the United States in craft chains, discount chains and internationally in 17 countries. You may also purchase our yarns directly from our web site. |
