This could be considered a follow on from my previous post, though really there is no connection.
Lately, in between other things, I have been crochetting some of my cross bookmarks in different coloured cottons. I added a tassel; as if people don’t like it they can always remove it but it’s harder to add one.
I decided to do this because although I don’t want the bother of doing something like having an Etsy shop, I thought that if I donated a few of my cross bookmarks to my parish, they could be sold to help parish funds and so I made eight bookmarks.
I made three using my pattern no. 1
And five using pattern no. 2.
Four similar
and one in red with a white border.
I wasn’t entirely happy with this last one as the red shows through the white. However two of the bookmarks were snapped up almost immediately when I showed them to a couple of people I know at church, including this one. Another bookmark was bought on Sunday.
So now I should maybe make a couple more!
Love these. May I have pattern? Thanks Charlotte

Both patterns are available on my blog. Look at the menu at the top for ‘My Patterns’, choose ‘Crochet’ and you can click on the picture of a cross bookmark to find both patterns.

They are unique and very beautifully made, I’m not surprised they’re getting snapped up 🙂
PS. One of my customers on Saturday was a lady from Southampton, who was looking for a “whacky” hat to take home for winter. I wanted to ask her if she knew someone called Jane, but figured it would sound hokey. hahaha
