Crochet Bookmark


This is a crocheted bookmark that I made using a bracelet pattern then adding a border. Here is the link to the bracelet pattern. I am copying the pattern here in a format that is easier to read and adding the border pattern, but the original pattern came from bhg.com.

I used a size 9 - 1.40 mm hook and one strand of embroidery thread.

Ch 8. 

Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across, turn. (7 st)

Row 2: Ch 3 (counts as 1st dc), skip 1st st, dc next st, sk 1 st, 5 dc in next st, sk 1 st, dc in last 2 sts. 

Row 3: Ch 3, sk 1st st, dc in next st, ch 1, sk 2 sts, (dc, ch 1, dc) in next st, ch 1, sk 2 sts, dc in last 2 sts. 

Row 4: Ch 3, sk 1st st, dc in next st, sk ch 1 and next st, 5 dc in next ch 1 sp, sk next st and ch 1 sp, dc in last 2 dc. 

Repeat rows 3 and 4 until desired length. 

Border: ch 1, turn, sc in next st, 3 sc in 5 dc st, sc in next st, 3 sc in the middle of the dc st, sc in the ch 3 st.

Continue all the way around the bookmark, sl st into the base of the first 3 sc st, then finish off.
