Label your holiday gifts!
Sig'nits are beads that you knit
into your project to identify creations as your own. They are a logo, brand,
identification, or signature ‑ a
Sig'nit! Select a symbol to use as your own
personal "brand" or choose something meaningful to the person you are creating
the design for. Choose an initial, a favorite animal, or a character. Every time
you knit or crochet something, you can trademark it with a personal and special
Sig'nit.

Knit Out Box features silk button closures and an easy‑to‑carry handle. The

"Memento Mori" is a Latin phrase that when translated means "remember you are
mortal." In the 15th Century, the term became synonymous with the term "carpe
diem" or "seize the day." And the skull icon became a visual reminder that we
are mortal, that life on earth is fleeting, and that we should enjoy every
day to its fullest potential!
