CROCHET BOOKMARK PATTERN

To every book warm, a crochet bookmark pattern is as important as the book itself. Another thing I love doing, apart from crocheting is reading. I love reading good Novels when time permits and of course a bookmark is needed for a mum with a toddler! This crochet bookmark pattern is easy to follow and quick to make

I found myself using my crochet hooks as a book mark, please tell me I’m not the only one who does this. The thought of making a crochet Book mark came up, and I was like, why not make a cute and attractive book mark instead of hooks? since I made this Book divider, I’ve lost count of the number made as gift since then. Cute pendant was added to the last set Made and sent off to my Baby’s Nursery teachers as gift, they loved their Book mark also.

4. This pattern is worked in rounds and then in rows
