Black Obsidian Skull Stitch Markers

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 20:41:21 -0500

$20.00
Black obsidian is a naturally-occurring glass; molten lava that has cooled quickly, so it has had no time to crystallize. Obsidian is said to draw out mental stress and tension, stimulating growth on all levels, urging exploration of the unknown and opening new horizons, bringing clarity to the mind and clearing confusion. Perfect for everyone from the beginner to even the most adventurous knitter!

The skulls are carved black obsidian, the discs are Bali silver, the rondelles are onyx, and the red beads are Swarovski crystals. The seventh has a nugget of polished coral, Bali silver, African trade beads, and Swarovski crystals.

The rings will accommodate a US size 9 (5.5mm) knitting needle.

Flight of the Dragonfly Stitch Markers

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 20:41:21 -0500

$11.50
Dragonflies are associated with many conflicting myths. I choose to believe in the positive ones, for these "odonata" are quite beautiful. The Swedes who called the dragonflies the "Devil's Steelyards" also recognized the dragonfly as a holy creature, and to one Swedish cult, they symbolized the love goddess Freya. Another Swedish legend holds that trolls use the dragonflies as spindles when weaving their clothes. In some parts of the world it is considered lucky to have a dragonfly land on you, yielding seven years of good luck. In Japan, which was once named "Akitsushima," or "the Isles of the Dragonfly," the dragonfly is symbolic of success, victory, happiness, strength and courage. They symbolize whirlwind, swiftness and activity. Perfect attributes to associate with your knitting!

The six dragonflies are pewter, and are each topped by two Biwa pearls, and finished with two labradorite rondelles. The seventh stitch marker is a palest blue freshwater pearl hugged by two Biwa pearls and labradorite rondelles.

The rings will accommodate a US size 9 (5.5mm) knitting needle.

Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby (Ruby Ruby Sapphire) Stitch Markers

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 20:41:21 -0500

$55.00
"...Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby
Do ya do ya do ya do ya
Know what you're doing, doing to me
Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby..."
- Kaiser Chiefs "Ruby" 2008

This is one of my favorite songs, has been ever since it came out. I've got the video favorited on YouTube, and linked on Facebook. Whenever it comes up on Pandora, I vote it up. I'm a woman of technology!

That being said, I love the ancient look of these stitch markers, the Byzantine granulation in the vermeil and Bali silver beads and the discs, and in the faceted ruby and sapphire rondelles. Call me eclectic; my tastes are varied and run a gamut of the millennia. Ruby is fabled to help bring focus and motivation to your life and is a favored gem among royalty.

The rings will accommodate a US size 9 (5.5mm) knitting needle.

Focus your knitting with these beautiful stitch markers!

Mizuhiki Cord - Pastel Rainbow

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 18:38:34 -0400

$4.00
Mizuhiki is an ancient Japanese art form that uses a special cord. The cord is created from rice paper, that is tightly wound, starched to give it stiffness, and then colored. The ways of coloring include brightly colored mylar (a very thin plastic), thin strands of silk, or simply painted. The art form was used to tie up the hair of the samurai.

Mizuhiki cord will hold its shape when curled or bent, making it perfect for use in altered books, scrapbooking, cards, jewelry, hair adornments and the like.

Each package contains five cords, each 92cm long (approximately 36 inches). They were part of my inventory when I had a brick and mortar rubber stamp store, and still have the original price sticker. Since I have no overhead on Etsy, I'm passing on the savings to you ♥
