I am sitting here knitting a pair of adorable socks from a pattern I got from KnitPicks called Butterfly Garden Socks.  The pattern is gorgeous with lace built in.  I am getting more comfortable with knitting on two needles because you can do both socks at one time.  I can’t tell you how much of a lifesaver this technique is to use when knitting socks.

Anyway, this pattern is knitted from the toe up, and now that I have completed the toe I needed to know how to use stitch markers that are not open.  I just got a set with my June subscription to Simply Knitting and wanted to start using them.  Here is a real great video illustrating it:

As you can see, it’s really not rocket science, but at least you know how to move marker and it does not become an integrated part of your work. Use those cute little beaded stitch markers you’ve been holding onto more confidently. Happy knitting!
