….In 2018 he was in the oilfield working for Halliburton during the freezing winter. He knew he wanted to do something different. The idea of opening his own embroidery company came to him.

….Chris Rute, who has worn hats all his life, has always been very particular about his hats. He ordered some hats from an online embroidery company that said, "Make Oilfield Great Again." He quickly sold these to all his co-workers and online. He found out that there is a desire and a need for customized hats and apparel, so he started doing his research on the business.

….Chris purchased his equipment and really got off the ground right when Covid started. Ol'man Stitchin Embroidery LLC was started in early 2020 from Chris Rute’s garage in Sterling, Colorado. This turned out to be a very challenging time to start a company like this.

….Ol’man Stichin Embroidery grew out of his garage in late 2021. He relocated at 1010 West Main Street. This location has brought more opportunities to serve his customers in a more professional environment than his garage.

….Ol'man Stitchin Embroidery specializes in hats but also offer embroidery services on shirts, hoodies, coats, and more.

….This year has been a challenge with the tight economy and the supply chain issues that every industry is facing. Chris and his family are extremely grateful for this amazing community and the support that they have received in growing this business. He looks forward to many more years of serving this great community.

….You may contact Ol'man Stitchin Embroidery at (970) 571-3767 and on Facebook- http://www.facebook.com/olmanstitchin/. They are located 1010 West Main St., Unit B, in Sterling.

….WhatsApp is an application that allows you to message and call your friends and family worldwide. However, due to a new scam, the next WhatsApp message you receive may come from a cybercriminal instead of a trusted contact.

….To start the scam, a cybercriminal will send you innocent WhatsApp messages to earn your trust. After you start talking to the cybercriminal, they will try to convince you to call them. The cybercriminal's phone number includes a specific prefix that prompts your mobile carrier to forward your personal phone number to the cybercriminal’s phone.

….Then, the cybercriminal can use your phone number to get a temporary WhatsApp password, reset your existing password, and lock you out of your account. Once the cybercriminal has access to your WhatsApp account, they can impersonate you and convince your contacts to send them money.

….Don’t fall for this scam! Follow the tips below to keep your WhatsApp account secure:

…. * Be cautious of who you call on WhatsApp. Only call phone numbers that belong to trusted contacts.

 ….*  Learn about common social engineering red flags. Educating yourself on common scam tactics can help you avoid social engineering attacks.
