CROCHET BOOKMARK PATTERN

A crochet bookmark pattern is as important as the book itself to keep it warm. Apart from crocheting, I also love 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 bookmarks; please tell me I’m not the only one who does this. I thought of making a crochet bookmark and wondered why I should not make a cute and attractive bookmark instead of hooks.

Since I made this Book divider, I’ve lost count of the number made as a gift since then. A cute pendant was added to the last set. It was made and sent to my Baby’s Nursery teachers as a gift; they also loved their Bookmarks.

Here’s the crochet bookmark pattern

Pattern Notes

  1. Chains at the beginning of the rows/rounds do not count as a stitch.
  2. If you do not have a key ring, an alternative option using chains is provided. The key ring only makes the divider sturdy.
  3. If you want to use different colors, you can do it after each round.
  4. This pattern is worked in rounds and then in rows.
