How to Shadow Wrap Short Rows | Tutorial
Tape Measure by Coco Knits
Our plastic-free tape measure comes in six colors; Clay, Linen, Storm, Sea Glass, Mustard Seed, and Wild Rose (red, white, gray, aqua, yellow, and pink). The bright colors will ensure you can always find it in your project bag. The earth tone colors add a pebble inspired look to your tools. The metal tape inside measures both inches and cm/mm (78" / 2 m long), and has a metal tab on the end to keep it from retracting into the body of the tape measure.
After years of requests, we have finally made our own version of a tape measure - in Sea Glass, Mustard Seed, and Wild Rose (aqua, yellow, and pink). The bright colors will ensure you can always find it in your project bag. The metal tape inside measures both inches and cm/mm (78 in / 2 m long), and has a metal tab on the end to keep it from retracting into the body of the tape measure.
Because Cocoknits is committed to avoiding plastic wherever possible, we manufactured it from PLA, a 100% biodegradable plant fiber (similar to the Needle Gauge, but not water soluble). The absence of a locking mechanism keeps them 100% plastic-free and reduces the likelihood of breakage.
Each tape measure is packaged in a reusable linen drawstring bag to minimize packaging waste.
Product Details
Made of PLA - 100% fiber waste called polylactic acid, which is made from fermented plant starch such as corn, beets, or sugar cane. It is 100% biodegradable and contains no plastic (this product can get wet; it is NOT water soluble)
Packaged individually in a linen drawstring bag with Cocoknits logo
Metal tab to keep tape from retracting into the body of the tape measure
No locking mechanism keeps them 100% plastic-free and reduces the likelihood of breakage
Dimensions:
casing: 2.5 x 2 x .5 in (6.5 x 5 x 1.27 cm)
metal tape: 78 in / 2 m long
How to Use
The tape measure does not have a locking mechanism, so hold the metal tab or the tape at the body to keep it extended.
Care
This PLA is not water soluble, so the tape measure can be submerged in water without causing change in the material.
Maker’s Keep
One of the many advantages to knitting is that you can take it with you everywhere! And, in the process, lose little knitting notions everywhere! I wanted a way to truly contain all my knitting tools while traveling – so I came up with the Maker’s Keep magnetic bracelet.
It is a slap-bracelet so it fits everyone (one size truly fits all here). You can wear it, or simply drop it in your knitting tool bag to keep all the tools together – or even unfurl it and push the magnet to one end to use it as a straight edge while reading down a pattern.
In addition to knitting, I use mine for sewing (it’s great for holding pins!) and we have heard from customers who have used their MK for holding paper clips at work, hairpins (especially while doing hair for weddings!), nails and screws while working around the house, and even for fly fishing!

Colorful Ring Stitch Markers by Coco Knits
The perfect addition to your knitting kits. These stitch markers are nylon-coated steel which makes them magnetic and so much easier to rescue when dropped with the help of any magnet.
I love a stitch marker to alert me that I need to do something in my knitting – either for a stitch pattern, an increase or decrease, or beginning of round… but stitch markers get lost! Down the cracks of the sofa, dropped on an airplane or bus, never to be seen again – so frustrating! So I worked to create a super smooth, steel based, nylon coated marker in a rainbow of colors – that also stick to the Maker’s Keep or any magnet. And now they are an integral part of the Cocoknits Method, in which the knitter uses specific colors to mark sleeves, body, front left, front right, etc. which correspond to the same colors on the Cocoknits Method Worksheet.
Product Details
Stitch Markers Accommodate: Small - up to US 7 / 4.5mm needle. Original - up to US 13 / 9mm needle. Jumbo - up to US 19 / 16mm needle.
Made of nylon coated steel
Includes
10 each of 6 colors (small and original) 5 each of 6 colors (jumbo)
How to Use
These colorful stitch markers help you mark rounds, increases, decreases, and stitch patterns.
Easily add or move the markers by putting them on your needle..
Maker's Board
A must have for anyone that uses paper patterns. These sell out very quickly, if you’re interested in reserving one from an upcoming shipment, please let us know.
Coco Knits Description:
Julie was inspired to design this tool knowing there must be an easier way to read knitting charts! From there, the Maker’s Board evolved to hold little tools, recipes, or a tablet. This is one accessory that can do a lot! Made with washable kraft fabric, there are internal metal sheets that make every surface magnetic. You can stick a chart on one surface, your pattern on another, and when you prop one side up for display, the angle is completely adjustable, making it even more versatile. Use the strong magnets included to keep small tools, charts, patterns, recipes, and more at hand while you’re working. Like many of Julie’s tools, it could help organize a variety of different projects - its uses are only limited by your imagination!

Colorful Opening Stitch Markers by Coco Knits
An offshoot of the Colorful Ring Stitch Markers – opening markers are perfect for tracking row counts, number of stitches when casting on, and so many other uses. The thin metal keeps them flexible as a ‘safety pin’ style marker, and since they’re steel they cling to the Maker’s Keep or any magnet.

How to Use
These colorful opening stitch markers help you mark rounds, increases, decreases, and stitch patterns.
Easily add or move the markers by putting them on your needle, crochet hook, or directly on stitches.
Care
Please note that the opening stitch markers are painted, not nylon coated, in order to keep them delicate and to prevent them from leaving ladders in your knitting. With extended use the paint may begin to wear off giving them a rustic look, but enough paint should remain on the marker to distinguish each of the colors.
Stitch Fixer by Coco Knits
It’s terrible when you are knitting along and suddenly notice that little stitch you dropped a few rows back. Never fear, Cocoknits to the rescue!
