When knitting it is often important to mark stitches and rows. There are many stitch markers available to purchase. I wanted to make some of my own. I have been cleaning out and giving away many types of "stuff" over which I should have control. Recently I gave away most of the jewelry-making tools and supplies that were in the workroom. Just now I found a little packet of charms that could be made into stitch markers and progress keepers.
This is what I made:
As usual the picture is wonky but I still do not know how to change the orientation...
They consist of the Christmas charm, a large split ring (14 mm), and a lobster clasp (18mm). It is hoped that these are not too heavy to work with current and future knitting projects. Since at this time I mostly use worsted weight (number 4) yarn, I think they will be okay.
