Lodalite Quartz Gemstone Stitch Markers - stacked stones - limited quantity!

 Cairn Knitting Stitch Markers by Lavender Hill Knits

The term "cairn" comes from Scottish Gaelic "carn" meaning a man-made pile or stack of stones used for the purpose of marking something.  These markers are tiny cairns for your knitting, made with beautiful natural gemstones!

Gemstone beads have long been believed to have metaphysical/healing qualities and are often used during meditation. Some are thought to bring about wisdom, strength, energy, luck, and healing to name a few. For me knitting is kind of meditational (is that a word?), so I thought…hmmm…it might be interesting to make up some stitch markers with gemstones and combine my love of knitting with love for gemstones, it seemed like a natural combination! I love having a set of gemstone markers on my needles and concentrating on what the little stones might have the ability to do. Whether you are a skeptic or a believer, one thing is for sure, they are wonderful little pieces of nature to have on your needles!!

Lodalite Quartz - Known as a calming stone which helps your spirit shine be cleansing toxic energies.  It is a powerful meditative stone that helps increase spiritual energy.  Stones are clear quartz with inclusions of hematite and other minerals giving them the appearance of an underwater landscape.  They are like looking through water to the bottom of a stream.  Colors include clear, shades of brown and gray.  I have a very limited number of beads and am not sure if I will be able to get more, so get them while you can.

You will receive 6 markers, each marker made with three beads (6mm-13mm across) stacked on top of each other (total height is about 10mm-12mm). Markers are made with silver flexible beading wire and silver beads to add extra sparkle. They are like jewelry for your knitting needles!

Stitch markers are available in two loop sizes:

MEDIUM = fit up to a size 8 (5mm) needle
LARGE = fit up to a size 13 (9mm) needle

I love these markers because they have no wire ends, will not snag your yarn, will not separate like split rings can, slip easily between needles and will not scratch wood or bamboo needles.  They are very light and are perfect for lace knitting projects or any knitting!  They make a very special gift for a knitter or for yourself.
