3 Easy Crochet Bookmarks

Crochet bookmarks are a quick and easy project. You can use up any scrap yarn or embroidery thread lying around. 

These bookmarks make great gifts for any book lovers in your life. You could easily pair any one of these bookmarks with a good book, that would be a great gift for anyone who loves reading.

They are useful and beautiful at the same time. All 3 patterns are free and have YouTube tutorials, so even if you are a beginner, you can do it!

Since these are small fast projects, they make good items to sell at craft fairs as they can also be sold at a lower price point.

HOW DO YOU CROCHET THESE EASY BOOKMARKS?

CROCHET CROSS BOOKMARKS:

Crochet Cross Bookmarks

These crochet cross bookmarks are easy to make. The pattern I followed is from a YouTube video by Anutha – The Crochet World. 

The pattern is simple and straight-forward. You could make one in about 10 minutes! 

I used a yarn I found at Joann’s craft store. You can add extras as I did. I attached around 6 strands of thread to give it a tassel look at the bottom. For the top, I added 6 strands of thread and braided them.

PRESSED FLOWER BOOKMARKS:

Pressed flower bookmarks

These bookmarks are so pretty, you cannot help but love them! They are made using a pattern by  Hooked in Loops YouTube channel

The only thing that I did differently was to attach the tassel with a jump ring instead of a stitch, I found that looked better and was more sturdy.

I used size 10 crochet thread and a 1.5mm crochet hook.

If you would like to learn how to make a tassel, please look at this post: DIY Tassel Earrings

These bookmarks will be in my shop soon!

Update: These cute bookmarks are available now in my Etsy shop! Check them out Pressed Flower Crochet Bookmarks.

DANDELION BOOKMARKS:

I used cotton yarn from Hobby Lobby and a 3.75mm crochet hook.
