Stories of the Traveling Stitch Markers

Please let me introduce you to 5 beautiful stitch markers.

7/24 STSM they've arrived*****

They are traveling the state of Virginia living in differnet knitting projects while they tour one of the 13 original states.

They began their journey 4 months ago in Appomattox where they enjoyed time with handspun and dyed yarn from a sheep named Liza and were photographed on a cannon.


Easter Sunday they attended church service while their tour guide played the organ in Greenwood.

Then it was off to the Shenandoah Valley where they had many adventures including a trip to the dentist and a 4th of July Celebration!

What's next for them to experience? Stay tuned.

Check out "Stories of the Traveling Stitch Markers" Group on Ravelry to read the adventures of other Stitch markers traveling in other states.
