Silicon Dioxide Stitch Marker Set

This listing is for one set of stitch markers.  Each set comes with 6 markers.

I made these to match my Silicon Dioxide colorway.   Silicon dioxide, also known as silica, is an oxide of silicon with the chemical formula SiO2, most commonly found in nature as quartz and in various living organisms. In many parts of the world, silica is the major constituent of sand. Silica is one of the most complex and most abundant families of materials, existing as a compound of several minerals and as a synthetic product.

Since this colorway was originally inspired by a sandy beach, I went with a beach theme for the charms.  Shells, a wave, a sea turtle, and a sand dollar, as well as palm for good measure.

Each marker is handmade by me one at a time using snag free soldered sterling silver plated jump rings and sterling silver plated head pins.  

There are 3 types of ring you can choose.  Small ring markers will fit up to a US size 8 (5mm) needle comfortably, and the thin rings will help mark your place without creating ladders in even the finest work.  Large rings have an interior diameter of 8mm, and will fit up to a US 11.  Lobster claws are perfect for progress keepers, to mark rows, or to use as removable markers in crochet.
