I love that so much. Is it your own? Wow, amazing!!!!!!!!!
is there somewhere in town I can buy that weight yarn? hobby lobby?
It is, Challice, thanks!
Rachel, I don’t know if Hobby Lobby carries sock yarn anymore. They used to, but I haven’t seen it in a while, and granted, I haven’t checked in a while, either. But don’t forget we saw there was a yarn shop in your area.
If you can’t find any sock yarn, try some of the same thickness…snip a piece of AMA’s sock yarn and bring it along.
Wondering how that pattern could convert into a scarf or shawl. Beautiful.
I too am wondering how this would convert into a scarf. Has anyone tried it and if so, how did it come out? Thank you.
I love this bookmarker. Is there a printer friendly version?

Thank you for the pattern for this lovely bookmark! My 9 yo daughter was browsing Ravelry and picked it out for me to make for her and then found your blog! This afternoon I’m going to grab a cup of tea and enjoy the rest of your blog, then get knitting on that bookmark!
So pretty! Arrived here via a Ravelry linkage and now I have a new bookmark added to my queue and a blog added to my reader.
Like Tonya I found you via a ravelry linkage. What a good idea to knit bookmarks. I’ll do that now.
Your blog is now added to my reader. Thank you
Great use for leftover sock yarn! Thanks for posting.
I’m experimenting with fiber blends, and I went scouting for bookmark patterns. This was exactly what I wanted! I’ve posted a picture and a link back to your blog. Thanks for a great pattern!
Thank you for the bookmark pattern. I’m going to give it a go once I find suitable wool.
A special pattern, thanks. I’m using up left over sock yarn, and making the most beautiful little gifts.
Im fairly new to knitting. was just wondering why rows 4, 6 and 8 aren’t listed. Thank you
Vicki, Row 2 says “Row 2 and all even rows,” which would apply to 4, 6 &8. It’s a common pattern-compressor! Happy knitting!
Because Rows 4, 6 & 8 are all even rows & are done the same as Row 1.
Sorry but I made a typo in my previous answer. Rows 4, 6 & 8 are done the same as Row 2 that’s why they are not listed.
Thanks for this pattern, Love it.
Cheers
Alan
I love your bookmarks great to use up my sock yarn
