Thread! Bookmarks! Whee!

July 3rd, 2004 · 11 Comments · FOs (Finished Objects)

I’m really enjoying being a part of the internet community of crocheters. It’s motivated me to do a lot of things I wouldn’t have otherwise. Like this thread bookmark. I’ve been thinking about thread for a while, and several weeks ago I made my first attempt with a few flowers and leaves, but it was the Crochetville Swap (July-August is bookmarks) that finally prompted me to do an actual project.

This is my first thread bookmark, Angela’s Cornflower Bookmark. I’ve started on another as well, Cro-Tat Beaded Bookmark. I’m having fun working with thread. It’s so dainty and pretty, and bookmarks make for a quick, satisfying project.

    Yay for thread bookmarks. I love them for using up odds and ends of threads left over from larger projects :)

    Great bookmark! I made one of those a few years ago for a friend. I used a varigated purple thread for the flower part and it looked really neat too. :)
