When I first took up crochet I didn't have any stitch markers, I didn't even know stitch markers existed. It wasn't long before I knew about them and I learnt the value of using stitch markers, aka stitch savers. That first frustrating experience of when a project accidentally unravels because there's nothing holding onto the stitch to stop it coming undone or your crochet circle grows in ways it isn't supposed to and the worth of this tiny tool became obvious very quickly. But there are so many styles of stitch marker to choose from, locking, circle, coil-less, plastic, safety pins, thread, 3D printed... does it really make a difference which one you use? Is it just how pretty they are? I walk you through a dozen different stitch markers from items you have lying around your home to the fancy artisan styles. I share with you what features to look for and those that don't really hold up to the task.

Looking so innocent sleeping and stretching!
ReplyDeleteDon't believe it for a second ;)
DeleteArrr she certainly takes over your chair x #AnimalTales
ReplyDeleteShe takes over my chair, my bed, my sewing table! I don't know how one little cat manages it but she does.
DeleteHa ha- only cats can look that innocent when up to no good! The towel is a good idea; we have a throw on our armchair and Henry cat always grabs it when we try and pick him up ... whilst looking all innocent of course.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for joining in with #AnimalTales again.
Cat's are the masters of looking innocent when they aren't, the dogs try but the guilt always shows through.
DeleteOh Bless - still at least she keeps the seat warm!! She looks like butter wouldn't melt. Lovely pics :) #animaltales
