In May 2019 I decided I wanted to finally learn to crochet, and a fabulous pattern called NaturesWalkCAL helped teach me. I learned doing this that using something to keep the stitches from unravelling was essential. Yes, I learned that the hard way!
Initially I used a spare, large jumpring, but then, decided it would be nice to have something to coordinate with my HookerRing and also use up the odd offcuts of the narrow sheet I buy to make them. So these co-ordinating StitchKeepers were devised.

Full description
This listing is for an individually, handcrafted, solid sterling silver, coiled and stamped stitch keeper
I take a piece of silver, and, after filing and sanding al the edges, I tape it to my steel block. Then I whack the patterns into it. It's very therapeutic
Next task is to saw each pattern from the strip, at which point I do more filing and sanding of the exposed edges. Once all the little stampings have been collected in my peg apron, I grip them firmly in my pliers to file and sand the last edge,
Next is cutting some round wire, rounding the ends and beating a paddle shape to one of the ends, which is where I then solder the embellishment
Finally each piece needs cleaning in the pickle pot, coiling into shape and then a tumble to firm it up and give it a polish
As you can tell, it's time consuming and each piece will be slightly different.
