The "knitty" gritty...
-Each clip is approx. 4" long and about 1" wide
-These are super sized jumbo paper clips for the base and then I securely attach a button to it
-These are great to clip your coupons together, to mark your place in your summer books OR to hold your place in your journal!
-These make the greatest gifts for people of all ages!
New Button Bookmarks
But, if you are a DIY-er, I also made the tutorial on how to make them! DIY Button Bookmark tutorial

Knitty Fun Fact...
“And I find chopsticks frankly distressing. Am I alone in thinking it odd that a people ingenious enough to invent paper, gunpowder, kites and any number of other useful objects, and who have a noble history extending back 3,000 years haven't yet worked out that a pair of knitting needles is no way to capture food?” ~Bill Bryson

What's New?
I have been playing around with my button id badges. I have to admit they are SO FUN to make...I love mixing the colors and patterns! I just made 50 new styles using some new fabrics I just received from Lakehouse! One of my favorites are the hydrangea leaves and the cupcakes (of course:).
The "knitty" gritty...
-The reel comes with a clip on back and badge snap on id holder
-Retractable cord extends approximately 24"
-These are great to clip onto your pocket, purse or lanyard

Knitty Fun Fact...
Most historians agree that knitting originated with male Arabian sailors and was basically a male-only craft until fairly recently in it's history. In many non-western cultures knitting has remained prominent amongst men and is now considered a unisex hobby.
