I know the new look of Ravelry is really bothering some people, if this is the case for you – I’m so sorry you are having to deal with it and hope they’ll have a solution in the near future. In the meantime, this was the push I needed to finally open Tallgrass Knitting (my Etsy Shop).
I’m so excited to get started! I’ve really loved gathering my tools, scouring my suppliers for the best materials and picking out new beads for the stitch marker sets. I’d forgotten how much I enjoy working with beads so I had a lot of fun hand-wiring the stitch markers too!
I’m passionate about providing high quality gifts for knitters at fair price. Each Full Set of 6 stitch markers or Mini-Set of 3 stitch markers are hand-crafted with my favorite metal charms, glass or natural beads and matching findings. The charms and beads for all my stitch markers are light weight and won’t snag your knitting. Each set will fit up to US Size 11 [8.00 mm] needles.
I really like the idea of giving knitters and people purchasing gifts for knitters choices. That’s why I added Mini-Sets of 3 stitch markers. These smaller sets are great for mixing and matching or to finish out an order!
Each set comes on a wine glass ring and packaged in a craft paper pillow box with jute twine bow. This makes them a great gift for a knitter in your life or a perfect treat for yourself!
I also have my first kit available!!! The Prairie Rose Cowl Kit includes 400 yds of Elevate Fibers Silky Merino yarn in the colorway Golden Prairie (fingering, 4-ply, fiber content is 75% Superwash Merino, 25% Mulberry Silk), the 5-page full color printed pattern in a plastic sleeve protector (printed pattern includes a code to also download the pattern pdf for your library) and 1 limited edition matching stitch marker. I’m so excited to offer this kit and to be working with Elevate Fibers to do it! I’m already planning ahead to my next kits.
And finally the shop carries 34 of my favorite original knitwear patterns.
The next time you’re looking for gifts for knitter’s or a treat for yourself, I hope you’ll take a look to see if Tallgrass Knitting offers exactly what you need.
