Welcome to Stitch Markers – A Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop!
This is the first Pinterest Challenge in which I have participated. When I saw Erlene of My Pinteradventures call for November entries, I thought it would be a good opportunity to familiarize myself with all of the pins I have pinned.
For the challenge, I chose How to Make Stitch Markers for Crocheting and Knitting. Since I make jewelry, I already had everything I needed on hand. In fact, I had more items than required, so mine are a slightly more elaborate. I used the following materials: lobster clasps, headpins, beads, and charms.
My crocheting skills are pretty basic, so I haven’t had need of stitch markers yet. I really didn’t have any idea of how many to make since I haven’t used stitch markers before. I made a nice even ten. If it’s not enough, I now know how to make more!
Serendipitously, I finished a baby afghan a couple of days before I sat down to write this post. I did not make the baby afghan for this Pinterest challenge; I am not fast enough to complete a baby afghan in a month. But I did use a pattern from my Pinterest pins, so I’m including it in this post. The pattern is called Rabbit Tracks (although I also call it Bunny Tracks).

That is pretty and thanks for pinning my post…
Thank you! And my pleasure.
Those are beautiful stitch markers! I rarely use them, but they are great to have on hand when I need them.
Thank you so much! They were fun to make.
You’re welcome!
Those are so fun! I don’t crochet so I don’t know about stitch markers, but at least you have some pretty ones to use when you need them!
Thank you so much, Laura! They were fun to make too.
Those are beautiful! I’m thinking I should make a set for my mom; she does lots of knitting and yarn work. Pinned
Oh that would be awesome! They are fun to make and don’t require a lot of time.
These are so pretty! And I love the afghan the colors are beautiful 🙂
Thank you so much!
Beautiful stitch markers! I need to learn how to crochet or knit so I can make these!
Yes, you do! 🙂
I don’t crochet, but I’m guessing you use these to mark certain spots while making a design? These are very pretty and look like little pieces of jewelry.
You’ve guessed correctly! I haven’t needed to use them yet, but now I’m prepared. Thanks so much!
Beautiful! I love anything in purple.
Thank you! Purple is one of my favorite colors too.
These are so beautiful! What a lovely gift idea for the knit|crochet crafter in our lives. Pinned
Thanks so much! They would make a lovely gift and are quick and easy to make.
Those are the prettiest stitch holders I have seen!
Happy Thanksgiving.
