I've been hearing rumors for two weeks but it's official—Nordic Needle is closing their physical store and may close their online store as well. That's not been decided yet.

Dye Lot Change to Kreinik's 002HL UPDATED
Kreinik is advising everyone of a dye lot change to their basic 002 gold in High Luster. Thanks to The Stitcher's Garden posting this message on Facebook so I could share the news. Kreinik wrote,
"FYI
002HL Dye Lot Change
We want to let you know that Kreinik color 002HL has a slight dye lot change that will be taking effect in the next few weeks. The new 002HL is still beautifully brassy, but just a bit darker in shade. When you receive this product, the spools will have an extra marking above the size; in this case, the letter “B” designating a dye lot difference. All spools and five-packs will be marked to give your customers a heads-up that there is a difference.
We are putting this information on our website and social media pages to raise awareness. Unfortunately, dye lot changes happen periodically, so we want to make it as painless as possible. This new letter designation on metallics is similar to the one we use on Kreinik Silk Mori, and will make it easier for retailers and stitchers to identify a color change. From now on, it will be shown on any metallic experiencing a dye lot difference.
Kreinik Mfg Co Inc"
UPDATE: Kreinik has repeated this information on their blog with a bit of background. Thanks for the heads up!
