While not made of fiber or textiles, it’s for a fiber craft, so I figured that I’d tuck these in here. They’re not really jewelry…
I run a Crochet & Knit Club at the middle school I teach at, and all of the kids in it this year worked on crochet projects. Last year, I made them all pouches (Crochet Club Zipper Pouches). This year, since I had a few returning members, plus several additions, I decided to make them sets of crochet stitch markers.
I bought some yarn charms online (along with the jump rings and lobster clasps), as well as some crochet pins. I found these cute little drawstring bags at Michaels, and decorated each bag with the pins.
I had intended to make 6 stitch markers per student, but I had a couple of new members join after I had ordered my supplies, so I ended up making only 5 per student (a total of 50 altogether).
Thanks! I wish I had time to make the pouches- I could have made them in fun fabrics. But, this was a way for me to make sure they were finished before school ended.
Thank you! I don’t think many of them actually finished a project, but they come and hang out and crochet whatever they want. As long as they are enjoying the process, that’s all that matters!
