Shawl Every Day 2021 - Day 54 - Maker's mark

A maker’s mark is more than just a bourbon. :P More commonly known today as a trademark or even just a logo, a maker’s mark is used to indicate the manufacturer or maker of a specific object. They’ve been used by makers for a loooong time, especially as related to pottery.

You can also find maker’s marks on furniture, leather goods, jewelry, and more. Quilters often add labels or quilt a distinct element into the design. There’s not really a great way to add a maker’s mark to knitting or crochet though. Maybe a couple stitches in your signature color?

Scarf pattern is Blue Bell Hill Scarf by Jocelyn Tunney
