Cleaver Ideas for stitch markers and stitch stoppers

A wine cork for a stitch stopper

I use small split rings for size 3 and smaller needles when working with fingering weight yarn or thinner. My regular stitch markers are too thick and would create a gap between stitches. The split rings never get caught.

Also in the picture is a rubber wine cork. Great for straight or circular needles to make sure your stitches don’t go anywhere when you throw your project in a to-go bag.
