Set of 10 gold handmade stitch markers that I manually engraved with the numbers 0 to 9 with a vintage brass alphabet set. Paired with faceted glass beads and metal bead caps.

Use closed on needles US13 or smaller when knitting in the round, or clip to a stitch during knitting or crochet. I developed this design to clip to a stitch for row counting (for example: decreases in stitches after so many rows when knitting a sleeve). I also love these to mark drop stitches until I can get back around to pick them up. Pin two to the same stitch for numbers higher than 9.

ABOUT HOW I ENGRAVE
The style of engraving I do is known as diamond drag engraving using a manual Pantograph engraver. This form of engraving is considered obsolete since most is now done via computerized laser and rotary engraving.

I use primarily vintage brass font sets, so I like to think my customers are not only getting a handmade item but also a piece of history.

This is an “Old School” form of engraving. It differs from hand stamping, where the letters are struck via a hammer into the metal, and usually blackened to stand out. The diamond tip leaves an impression on the metal and is left the natural color. Any dark appearance in my photos is due to reflection or shadow.

I strive to make/mail orders within 1 business day whenever possible. Please keep in mind that delivery times and delays are dictated by the carrier, weather, holidays, or other circumstances out of my control.
