120th ANNIVERSARY SPECIALS
Walter Hunt was a mechanic who invented the safety pin while twisting a piece of wire trying to figure out how to pay off a $15.00 debt. Why do we care about this? He also invented a repeating rifle, a street car bell, a flax spinner, knife sharpener, artificial stone, ice plows and a sewing machine. And?? So??? It just so happens that the original safety pin looked just like our modern day stitch holder. What do you know? Pretty cool, huh? Well, these “safety pins” were becoming quite common in 1904 and were being used in all sorts of ways, including to keep knitted stitches on hold. So in honor of Walter Hunt and all the probably millions of stitches he is responsible for keeping under control, mention the newsletter (or website) in November and get a large stitch holder for 12.0¢!
Coming Soon!!
