3D Printed Shawl Pins

The worlds of knitting and 3D printing collide once more with these 3D printed shawl pins that I've added to my Etsy Shop. I like to use shawl pins to fasten quite a few of my sweaters but I've always had issues with the pins I've purchased. One of my recent favorites is a large safety pin style fastener but it can get unfastened sometimes and it also has a tendency to rotate around a bit. I've used the decorative ones with a stick through a circular loop but they can come loose easily and the stick ends can be sharp. I also don't like long wooden sticks that poke out a bunch. It took a few prototypes and wearing time but I can honestly say that this pin stays on and does not rotate around or poke me in any way. It's made of plastic, which makes it really light in weight and doesn't drag down my garment. The stick is attached so I can't lose it. Now, let's see if I can sell any.....

3D Printed Stitch Markers

The world of knitting and 3D printing has collided and I've added 3D printed stitch markers to my Etsy Shop. These markers are colorful and ever so cute, if I may say so myself. They should be snag-free as they are printed as one piece. In case it's not obvious, the cut-out is that of a cat silhouette.

My tiny right brain -- Etsy Shop is open!

I opened my Etsy Shop last month, named 'TinyRightBrain'. I'm selling jewelry designed my moi and and manufactured using 3D printing. I'm starting off with earring designs and a few pendants. I'll be adding many more designs as time goes on. I hope you'll check it out, and even if you're not interested, share the link if you can, because my little shop needs eyeballs!

Here's a photo of a pair that I just added to the shop today. I named them "Barrel O' Fun".
