Stitch Markers for Sale

Those of you who listen to the podcast know that I am trying to raise money to go to the TNNA confrence in Ohio this June. I have also added a tip jar to both my blog and the podcast to have the listeners "tip" me if they like the show.

Well, to make things more fun I thought I would start to make stitch markers and sell those to help with costs as well.

Please, take a look at what I have been up to lately. If you like what you see and want to purchase it email me at marlybuff@aol.com with the number of the marker (located in the title of the picture).

Well, I hope you all will help me out with this ;-)

Those of you who know me know that it doesn't take a lot of prodding to get me to do something. I kind of just jump in while the idea is still warm ;-) So here I go, I am going to sell stitch markers for both Crochet and Knitting. I think every project should have a little bling ;-)

I will let you know as soon as they are officially up for sale. But to give you a heads up the prices will range from 3.00 for a single marker to 10-15.00 for a set. FREE SHIPPING!!!
