About Placing An Order With Retailers Listed Here...
Your local yarn shop may have the Effectiveness by Design patterns you want or be willing to get them for you. We urge you to support local yarn shops whenever possible to help keep them in business. If you don't have access to a local yarn shop that carries our line, below is a state-by-state listing of yarn shops and mail order sources where you can buy Effectiveness by Design patterns by phone, by e-mail, or "live and in person!" They receive automatic shipments of new patterns as soon as they are available and either have what you want in stock or would be happy to get it for you. Just click on the state(s) of your choice, and a list of retailers from that state will appear.

How to Place Your Order by Telephone
As you will see, in addition to having local telephone numbers, many retailers have toll-free numbers specifically for taking your orders by phone (a nice benefit when you're calling long distance to place your order).

You can expect to discuss the cost of your purchase, how to make payment, and when and how your purchase will be shipped.How To Place Your Order by E-Mail
Retailers listed below whose names are underlined are also equipped to help you make your purchase via e-mail. We've created links to take you from our on-line catalog to these retailers' e-mail addresses. All you need to do is click on the retailer of your choice, send a note describing what you want to buy, and ask for information about the cost of your purchase and how to place your order.How to Place Your Order "Live and In Person"
Actually, you know what to do when making purchases this way, but the list below may hold some surprises (for example, you may learn there are local yarn shops you didn't know existed)! Don't forget to ask for address information and shop hours.P.S. Just about every retailer listed here has staff who would not only be happy to mail your pattern purchase to you, they would also be delighted to assist you with the selection and purchase of yarn or other materials you may want to buy.
