Their comments like “this follows industry standards, but we can change it a little bit” are microaggressions.The blog post where they talk about more user signups and increased revenue is galling and a slap in the face to the existing community. It’s worth noting that after asking whether you had drop shadows turned on or off at the start, every image of the buttons within the survey showed them with drop shadows. We acknowledge that our responses up to this point have been insufficient.She goes on to say that they have been taking their time and collecting feedback on the redesign, and comments were shut down on threads because they were not able to respond to all of the comments (users are asked to email comments and feedback).She noted that Cassidy’s emails do not represent the opinions of Ravelry as a whole.Cassidy was not in a state to be talking with people, though she does understand that this is no excuse and that the emails that she wrote were hurtful. They paid a lot of money for a lousy redesign. Judgey much? She no longer has access to the customer service emails and her Ravelry mail is disabled.In response to people who have asked them to return the site to Classic mode as the default, Jessica said many people have found the new design to be more accessible — particularly in the mobile version — and they decided “switching back to Classic Ravelry would not serve the greatest number of Ravelers.”There will always be detractors any time a new design is unveiled (and I have to admit I don’t love it, though it is an improvement on the super-dated design it had before), it was lauded by some for being cleaner and more readable, but the brightness and high contrast of the design — as well as an animated login screen — have caused eye strain, headaches, (I know there are a lot of people who will say that’s not possible, it’s In response to these reports, Ravelry made changes so that the animation no longer autoplays, users can change their settings to revert to the old design, stop animations from playing, remove drop shadows or automatically increase font sizes. They are seeing a loss in income as users turn away from Ravelry. I found that I had to click several times on items in the new version before being able to access patterns or items.Didn`t like the new sight ar all, hated it,caused headaches and migraine reverted to the old site, much better and easier to useIt’s horrible but so was their decision to boot all of the Trump supporters off the site last year. I’ve enlarged and changed the font as much as possible to help with readability. They invite users to send them emails, but although they respond promptly to bug reports, to my knowledge no one has had a reply to emails about accessibility problems. They should deal with it.Wow. Ravelry and Accessibility On June 16th Cassidy unleashed a brand new look for Ravelry. The high contrast I feel makes it difficult to read. Consider for a minute the stress that this would cause to a neurotypical person when a site that you’ve used regularly over many years (daily for a lot of users) suddenly changes significantly without warning, and then consider that Ravelry has a large number of neurodiverse users to whom these changes were even more alarming and confusing. The Ravelry team’s response to all the literal pain caused by the new design was disappointing. BTW, if you're reading this and thinking, "Nausea, headaches, seizures? If you’re someone who can’t use the new Ravelry, look for your favorite designers in other venues such as Etsy or Love Crafts. Some have held back pattern releases and found alternate ways to host Knit-Alongs and pattern tests. A couple of other changes were made to the font and line spacing, and some of the black lines on the forums were replaced with grey ones. Ravelry has set itself up as the ultimate database and community for fibre crafters over the last decade, but now, for so many people, it’s gone. They have removed or put warnings on links to Ravelry to avoid causing harm to the unwary. They tried a thing to make their product better. If you’re looking for a design outside of Ravelry, check the designer’s blog or Instagram page, and if you don’t see options other than buying from Ravelry, ask them about it.I’d love to know what you think about the new design and if you’ve had any problems with it. I am pretty sure they didn’t plan to hurt people. And I love the survey. But it would not remember me and had to log in anew each time. Next, they put up a blog post starting with “For those of you who are having issues with the New Ravelry design, we’re truly sorry that aspects of the site are not usable for you. Didn’t work for everyone. I’ve reverted to the old look but am not sure of how long I can do that as it sounds like it will be phased out at some point.It’s horrible. The final box for “other comments” was limited to 500 characters, leaving very little room for anyone to talk about accessibility. I don’t know if there will ever be an alternative to Rav since we all spent such a long time making it helpful, but I can’t stand with this behaviour.I personally do not care for the new look; I much prefer the old, though I am using the new to get used to it. The survey was closed after 10 days with “over 10,000 completed surveys”.

Over the last six weeks, Mary-Heather has been asked repeated not to use the new icons as bullet points (and to just use the normal black dots instead) in both blog posts and forum posts. This is problematic because if the changes are only to users personal settings, as I said before, anyone who is not logged in who follows a link to Ravelry will get the migraine-inducing, seizure-causing website.There have been more problems directly from the Ravelry staff.
