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.

Wow, I'm particularly taken by the final image. That really demonstrates how the coot likes ot wash its food. Awesome. #MySundayPhoto
ReplyDeleteHi Stella, maybe dunking biscuits in the water is on a par to us humans dunking biscuits in tea? I must say that the coot does look very pleased with its 'catch'!
ReplyDeleteXX
Great set of photos, it really doesn't want to give that biscuit up
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up
I'll think 'as pleased as a coot' next time I'm dunking a biscuit :) #mysundayphoto
ReplyDeleteThat is a great set of photos - I love the way the coot is trying to soften the biscuit up to be able to eat it x
ReplyDeleteYou are such an excellent photographer, Stella! I'd have missed half those shots, just trying to focus! lol
