Stitch saver

If you’re out and about and have forgotten if you’re increasing or decreasing on your latest sock project, we at Inside Crochet reckon these bright stitch markers are just the thing! Birmingham-based scientist Emma Daulton put her love of design and yarn to good crafty use and laser cut a set of handy acrylic markers, originally for herself. But at the knit and natter at her local yarn shop, Stitch Solihull, everyone was so positive about them that she listed them on Etsy and received a whirlwind of interest. “I made knitting ones first as that’s what I predominantly do,” explains Emma, “but I’m trying crochet at the moment, so I made the crochet markers to remind me what stitch I did last!” £6 for set of eight, www.yarnistryshop.etsy.com
