Open markers clip directly into a stitch or loop at any point, without stopping to thread anything. That's what the SOHMO Snail Stitch Markers are designed for. The swirl or spiral shape - which is where the snail name comes from - creates an open gap that hooks easily into a stitch, holds securely while you work, and comes out cleanly when you're ready to move it. For crocheters, they mark beginning-of-round positions, stitch counts, increase and decrease points, and any other reference in a pattern you need to track. For knitters, they work the same way as any open locking marker - useful when you need to add or remove a marker mid-row without access to the needle tip. Two colours in each tin - 25 yellow and 25 orange - easy to distinguish from each other, and bright enough to spot against most yarn colours. Using two colours lets you track two different things in the same project simultaneously: one colour for the beginning of the round, another for a pattern repeat or stitch count. Closed vs open - which do you need? * Open markers (our Snail markers) - for crochet, or for knitting when you need to add\/remove markers without accessing the needle tip. Also useful for marking rows or errors after the fact. * Closed markers - for knitting only, where the marker stays on the needle throughout. See the SOHMO Heart Stitch Markers and SOHMO Round Stitch Markers. * Quantity: 50 markers (25 yellow, 25 orange) * Design: Open swirl \/ snail * Tin size: 80 x 55 x 16mm * Packaged weight: 38g * Made in China, packed in Australia \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VILLA-Wool Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63999588663673,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/6705\/9833\/files\/895ae8010c610cefca4d9e05580776528379054068637be9a268c07d78198745.webp?v=1784308661","url":"https:\/\/villawoolshop.co.uk\/products\/sohmo-snail-stitch-markers-open-swirl-markers-for-knitting-crochet-pack-of-50","provider":"VILLA-Wool Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
