00:00Ever lose your place mid-row and have to backtrack half a granny square?
00:04Same.
00:05Stitch markers fixed that in about a second,
00:07so I went hunting for the best stitch markers under $4 for crocheters
00:11and all 5 of these came in under $4.
00:14Let's get into it.
00:16First up is the one with the most choice, this QJH locking stitch marker set.
00:21You can get 50, 200, or 500 pieces in a mix of colors,
00:25and the clip snaps shut on your hook and stays put even
00:28when you set your project down on the couch.
00:30At $2.85 for 500 of them, this is the one I'd buy first.
00:36Next is the set that goes all the way up to a thousand pieces,
00:39same locking clip style, resin plastic, rainbow mix, for $2.63.
00:45You will not use a thousand markers in a lifetime,
00:48but for that price it's basically free,
00:50and if you crochet blankets or anything with a hundred rows in it, bulk makes sense.
00:54Now if you like small and simple, this 6, 8, or 12-piece pack is the minimalist option,
00:59and it's $2.60.
01:02Fewer markers means less clutter in your yarn bag,
01:05and honestly a dozen clips is plenty for most projects.
01:09Bonus, there are also little craft pendants if you want them for charms.
01:13This TMZ set is the safest of the bunch, safety pin style clips,
01:17so nothing sharp is poking at your fingers while you work.
01:21$3.29, still under $4, and it's got a 4.9 rating from thousands of buyers.
01:27If you crochet in bulky yarn with tight tension, this is the one that won't surprise you.
01:33And this 61-piece multicolor resin set is the best looking of them all, $3.75,
01:39so you're spending nearly your whole budget, but the colors are gorgeous and they click shut firmly.
01:44This is the one I keep on my own hook because it looks good enough to just leave sitting on
01:48the table.
