The Sigil Holder is a crafty way to display your favorite yarn and trinkets at the same time. Perfect for all of the notion goblins out there like myself who have a beautiful little stash of stitch markers that you’d love to admire more often.
This is something that has been on my mind and my needles for a while now, and I thought I’d share it as a little Valentine’s Day gift to you all. Knit it for your gals and pals or make one for yourself - they come together quickly and have a lot of charm (the pattern isn’t entirely free - you do have to survive my puns as payment! I apologize in advance.)

Yarn:

Scrap amounts of worsted-weight yarn (likely around 25 yards or less) - any worsted weight scraps you have around that strike your fancy or suit your gift-ee will be lovely! For my first sample I used Arachne in “Offering of Wine” and for my second sample I used Spincycle’s Dream State in Andromeda, a Starlight Knitting Society custom colorway. My buttons all came from Mellow Moon Supply on Etsy.

Tools and Notions:

US 4/3.5mm DPNs (or size needed to obtain a nice, tight i-cord with worsted weight yarn)

4+ O-rings

Crochet hook of a suitable size to fit through the O-rings (I used a 0/2.5mm hook)

1 button with shank backing

tapestry needle that can fit through the hole in the shank backing of your button

This is a very simple pattern - it’s just a 3-stitch i-cord with O-rings and a button attached! Try saying that three times fast.
