I am a knitter, spinner, teacher and artist residing in Maryland. I have a line of creative handmade stitch markers that I have been selling locally for a few years now, and have now decided to try and sell in more places!
The markers are a lot of fun use and collect-- I have been told they are very addictive! I like them because they are a great way to express yourself in your knitting as well as being a pleasure to use something silly & fancy for something so mundane. I use a wide variety of images on them and can customize the them to any request. ( For example shop logos, or personal photos/artwork). There are 2 sizes of rings— one which fits needle sizes 0-11 and a larger which will accommodate a 13 & 15. I use quality materials and unusual glass beads. The markers are also available exclusively beaded in glass or semiprecious stones. Please contact me if you are interested in carrying my markers or would like to know more about them. You can reach me at gnomegarden at gmail dot com
Thanks so much, and best wishes!
Dawn Doran
