Posies in a Row Bookmark

I decided that since it IS April, maybe I should look for some spring crochet projects?  Cowls and gloves are nice, but is it season appropriate?  lol

I saw these cute bookmarks and loved them.  I made 3 the other night and played with them in my new light box.  








 


I found the free pattern HERE.   I whipped these up in a just a few hours (took a little longer because I put on 2 different tails.........decided I had to have green)!

Have you decided to learn crochet yet?  It's fun!

    That's a cute way to use leftover bits of yarn. Very pretty.

    They're adorable. I've been working on something flowery too--it's definitely that time of year. (I'll post the pattern tomorrow or Friday.) Crochet IS so much fun!

    I saw the same pattern and was going to use thread to make them into barrett coverings... But yours look awesome. And love the light box. Never knew how hard it would be to take good pictures of projects.

    Visiting from Goodbye city, Hello suburbs. That bookmark is just SO cool. I'm a bookmark junky...and I can dabble a bit in crocheting so I might have to give this a try.
