I wanted to save up all my little tricks for crochet and have a post about them. I have been saving one for so long that I thought I'd just post about it and be done. I guess I don't really have any other tricks! (Other than organizing my stash in a big tote in the closet so that I can find everything when I need it. My craft books and other stuff are all in another container so I don't have to search through several boxes to find the one thing I need!)
So my tip is this: When you need to mark a stitch in a pattern, instead of using a spare piece of yarn, or buying stitch markers, I use a pin! You don't have to keep finding new pieces of yarn and tying them in, or buy something with only one purpose. I have tons of pins around. They are easy to pin on my crochet hook case for anytime I need them, too! Pins are also really easy to move when you have to keep track of the row you are on.
The picture is of my newest brilliance!! I can't wait to show you the finished product!

Pretty awesome. Do you know what my tip is? Have someone like you make them for me or buy them from the store. :-)
Actually, I am starting to make cute kids hats to sell! I'll let everyone know when I have some ready to go! I am really excited about this idea!
