Marking stitches is easy!

Marking stitches is easy!

Here is a tip that was given to me by a blind crocheter when I was in high school. I was amazed that Laurie could crochet with such speed and skill, in spite of her blindness. She said she relied on a bobby pin to mark her stitches, so she always knew where she was. I tried it, and have been using her method ever since. So add a couple of bobby pins to your crochet kit. You will be glad you did. Thanks, Laurie!

mad for crochet!

Thank you so much for this tip! I never would have thought of it, and have a horrid time with normal stitch markers! I have wanted something more functional, and I think you may have given me what I am looking for!! Thank you again!!
