I’ve been good about working on crafts other than knitting. Today it was making stitch markers. The kids colored some shrinky dinks earlier this week and I melted them today. They each gave me a llama, so I decided to use them to make stitch markers.

I like to use earring findings instead of jump rings, because that way I can use them as progress keepers or stitch markers. I should add one to each of my projects now so the kids don’t ask me about them.
Have you been exploring different crafts this week?
What a great idea! They look fabulous:)

Cute! Nope, just knitting away over here, whenever the cat is not on my lap anyway.

What a good idea, to use earring findings. I’m exploring confetti technique in quilt making.

These are awesome! No new crafts for me this week, but I do have some stitch marker things from a few years ago that maybe I’ll need to break out again. Oh let’s be honest, I’ll probably just keep knitting.

Very cool! My biggest craft project this week was practicing! I had my first two Young Artist kids over for a run through, and have been working on the other three so we can get some work done over the Thanksgiving break. 🙂 Max is so happy, he loves the high school kids.
