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.

ReplyDeleteThank you Sherry, I was a bit disappointed with it. Thanks for making me feel better :o) Happy New Year!
DeleteI find it very hard to take pictures of birds. I love the colours in this photo.
ReplyDeleteI still feel hopeless at it compared to hubby. It's quite the challenge, takes lots of patience and for every passable shot there are many that are blurry or even too late with no bird at all! I took this with 50-250mm at full zoom, then cropped.
