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.

I'd like to think someone collected them or they went to a good home.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up
such pretty hats, they must be kids like mine prone to throwing them on the floor when you're not looking! They make a lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteAwww this reminded me of the hats that my son lost in the past! We lost a lot. #mysundayphoto
ReplyDeleteAww! What lovely hats.
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of all the hats my girls have lost over the years x
This made me giggle. Hat rescue! Good on you for rescueing these hats :)
ReplyDeleteI would love for you to link up to #SilentSunday too - http://mummyconstant.com/silentsunday-6-march-2016/ x
That's so funny - I always wonder too what happens to lost hats/mittens hung on fenceposts if no one ever comes back to claim them!
ReplyDeleteGood for you for rescuing the hats! I see so many people just walk on by such things without a care. I hope they found their owners again... Playgrounds ought to have little lost-and-found boxes!
ReplyDeleteMaybe they joined the lost socks in the alternate universe??
ReplyDeleteLove the lining of the blue one!
