Feb. 3rd, 2006 08:06 pmI made these a little while ago, and I wanted to show 'em off. ;) Everyone makes crafty accessories, but what about accessories for crafting?



It was definitely a challenge to make snag-free stitch markers without actually buying jump rings, but I think I succeeded pretty well. I don't think I'd ever use these with super delicate yarns like mohair or angora, but I've used them with cotton, acrylic, and wool yarns with no troubles. They even behaved themselves with the super-fuzzy boucle!
Also, how would one go about getting the wrinkles out of some really fantastic vintage seersucker? I'm just letting them hang out, right now, but I don't think it'll help with how it crinkles up around the selvedges. Wouldn't ironing it also iron out all the neat little seersucker puckers? Argh!
Thank you, everyone!
