Oh thank you Artlady, thank you, thank you, thank you! I have your instructions printed out and a trip to my local craft shop is definitely on the agenda for tomorrow.
This time I expect to actually come home with the "fixings"!
You are very very welcome! Post photos of your first stitch marker!
And, if you need more help with any of the steps...let me know. That is why I "numbered" the photos...so you can inquire about a certain photo and what it means.
