Carol, these are wonderful ... and I could listen to your instructions forever. So calm and soothing. I used to knit and found it very relaxing. Might be time to try again. xo
Thank you so much Juliet. I've only just come back to knitting after many years away. I'm enjoying it when I have time to sit and do it. It's probably good for me to make the time.
OMG😍 I will wear it as a necklace 😉.it's sooooo pretty. Just shuffle the numbers around. It is a brainy idea for Knitters. I have been placing stitch markers on every row of a pattern. Thanks for sharing 🥰👍👍👍💗💗💗🌹🌹🌹
Yes, I think it would make a good necklace too! No more stitch markers on every row for you - you now have no excuse not to make these and use them. Lol.
@@The_Stylish_Maker you are adorable. I will make a few as I have many "half made" sweaters. NO EXCUSE to loose track of rows and concentration. Truly this will be very handy. With stitch markers it's risky as they BREAK, too narrow for the knitting needle or pierce the yarn and a little "swearing" goes on. Finally it's a Super brainy idea. 😍 THANK YOU.
Hi Rose, thank you for your comment. I actually was inspired to make these by my sister who is a fantastic knitter. Yes, please make one and let me know how you go.
Thanks for this very easy and pretty tutorial... I'm a crocheter new to knitting - and this tutorial is a life saver for me wanting to learn how to do other stitches besides the one row repeats... And, yes, Etsy ones are expensive - thankfully I already have everything - except the number beads - just something to add to my shopping list...
That's great. Thank you. I am going the other way - I've started crotchet again after years of being a knitter. I'm enjoying it very much. It's so quick and easy.
I have been searching for a video for so long! I need row counters and don't want to spend the money. I already have some tools and supplies from my mom so figured I'd make my own but had no idea where to start. Thank you so much! It's very informative and thorough.
I just found your video after looking at buying some row counters. When I saw how much they cost I immediately thought about making them myself and am glad I saw your video. Thanks for a great tutorial.
You're welcome. I've had that comment a lot. It was actually my sister who suggested that I make some. Did you see this one as well - ua-cam.com/video/ND0wME3TdRk/v-deo.htmlsi=XBINzcd8i5y-A2Uu
@@The_Stylish_Maker no I hadn’t seen that one but I already make my own stitch markers so I have loads of those. I did order my supplies for row counters and will pock them up tonight. Yay
Thank youso much for sharing. My daughter got me a jewelry making kit for Christmas and since she knits and I crochet these stich and row counter tutorials have been wonderul!
Those are wonderful and thank you for your tutorial! I just discovered those knitting row counters this week. Already put some supplies in my cart to make my own counters for me and my knitting friends as birthday presents! Thank you so much and regards from Germany!
Hi Anika, thank you so much for your kind words. I never knew about knitting row counters either until just recently when my sister sent me some pictures of them. I used to knit a lot but haven't done so in years - I've just started again and can see why they are so popular. Also the stitch markers are great. I'm about to make some numbered ones as the piece I'm working on requires 12 stitch markers.
Thank you for making this tutorial. Like you, I was shocked to see how much these cost to buy. I knew that they would be cheaper to make, and I get to enjoy the crafty experience. Loved your video and again thank you!
You are so welcome! Thank you Diane. The cost to make them versus buying them makes it very worthwhile. You can make them for all your friends and pay for your beads!
What a great tutorial! I too find the ones online expensive. Thanks for providing links for other tutorials to complete this project. I did not know about a 1-step looper. Please add the 6mm jump rings to the supply list for the colourful marker.
Hi Pam, thank you. You can find links to everything I used in this video here: www.affordablejewellerysupplies.co.nz/blogs/beading-projects/diy-knitting-row-counter-and-stitch-marker
Oh! You have opened up a whole new world as I haven't seen these before - much nicer than normal stitch markers. My memory is not so good now so these would be great, and very pretty. Just had a thought - the individual numbered beads would be good to put on memory sticks so you can log each one and what it contains.
Thank you Eileen. I was the same before my sister showed these to me - totally oblivious - now I wouldn't be without them. That's a good idea about the memory sticks too.
@@PatInselman all I can say is that it takes practice. I still struggle with it sometimes. Using a pair of pliers with fine points helps if you have them.
Thank you so much for this video. I already make stitch markers, since I crochet, and started selling them, but had someone ask me for a row counter today for knitting, and I was lost as to what to do, until I watched your videoo. All I need to get is some numbers and some larger jump rings. Thanks so much again!
I'm so pleased you are finding this video useful. I've made several since I made this one. My best tip is to either use soldered jump rings or a heavier gauge and make sure that they are well closed so that they don't catch on the wool. I made one for my sister and this happened. Enjoy.
@passionatesingle, thank you so much. You can find the tutorial for that bracelet here: www.affordablejewellerysupplies.co.nz/blogs/beading-projects/i-love-spring-bracelet
Oh my goodness same! I was looking for markers and was gobsmacked at the price. I was like I KNOW that someone has found a way to do this cheaper. And headed to UA-cam and found your video. And yours are too adorbs to boot! I literally just went into my craft room and put some together with materials that I already have.😊 Thank you so very much!! 🙏🏽
Thank you so much Lexie. I was just blown away by the price! There are so many to choose from - honestly you could go wild with making these. Hopefully I have given you enough that you can go forth and conquer the world of row counters! I actually made my sister a set of numbered stitch markers for Christmas which are also incredibly useful.
Oh, I'm so pleased. Glad you found it useful. I've also done another knitting related video if you want to check it out. ua-cam.com/video/ND0wME3TdRk/v-deo.html
Thank you so much for your tutorial! A friend of mine has been wanting one of these for awhile and I am putting one together for her as a quick gift and needed a tutorial. This was absolutely perfect. Thank you again so very much!
Carol, these are fantastic. Knitters always like ‘bling’ on their needles. You could also make stitch markers just with the jump ring and not the lobster clasp. I hope you will be making up kits as I know lots of knitters who need these. Thank you
Ahh I've only found your channel recently and have been really enjoying your content!! I've found it very hard to source knitting accessories that are pretty like this here in NZ.
Welcome, Dominique. Thank you. It's great that you found us. Yes, my sister has said the same thing - it was her that recommended that I do a video on how to make these.
All your videos are so nice. I enjoy watching :). I've seen you making earrings, necklaces, bracelets. But is it possible to make rings with beads? Thanks so much, Carol :)
Thank you Linnea. To be honest, I'm not very good at making rings. I've tried and failed many times. It's definitely on my list of skills to improve on.
Hi Maria, thank you so much. That's a comment I haven't had before. I use Revolution Pro foundation. The shade is F5 which is perfect for my extremely pale skin.🙂
You can also use the extra charm to mark your 10, 20, 30 etc rows. When you get to 11, you put the charm on 1. When you get to 20, you put the charm on 2. This way, you can count to 100 rows!😊
Very good tutorial and I like how you had a small cameo video of you going in the corner. I think it made the tutorial better! I am learning to crochet. Do you know of row counters for that?
Thank you so much Connie. I don't know about row counters specifically for crotchet but I can do some research and see what I can find. Pinterest is always a good place to start.
I enjoyed your video. I was considering making one of these myself. Is there any way to do it without the jump ring? I had actually bought one of these markers and the jump rings, snag the yarn as I knit. I’ve tried to firm up the connection, but have not had much luck.
There are a couple of things to consider here, Becky. The weight of the jump ring and whether it is properly closed. A well closed jump ring in a heavier gauge should work well here without snagging. I use mine all the time and it doesn't snag on the wool. You could purchase a soldered jump ring which has no openings. Here's a link to some on Amazon. amzn.to/4bg0xXp
Carol, I have not made these before, there have been a lot of requests for them in my knitting group. I make jewelry so I'll give it a try. I have to order some beads with numbers. I was wondering, someone ordered a row counter from someone else and they said the rings caught on the knit fabric. It seems to me that if you feel for the rough edges and press them down it should be sufficient. Are there any other tips should try? Thanks so much. So pleased I found your site.
Thank you for your question. Yes, if you close the jump rings well, it should be fine. I also found that heavier jump rings work better. The first few I made I used some thinner gauge jump rings and the rings kept opening up slightly and catching. I've also been searching for some closed jump rings which could also work.
Hi Anyela, thank you for your query. You can purchase a kit on our website for $12NZD. Of course shipping will be on top of that. www.affordablejewellerysupplies.co.nz/products/multicoloured-knitting-row-counter-kit
Thank You I saw this video and plan to make my own row counter. As you said I paid 30 dollars for one before seeing your video.
