Free Crochet Pattern {Dainty Daisy Bookmark}
I’ve always been a big reader. But, I was never been a big bookmark user. I know it’s a bad idea, but I would dog ear pages or stick some random item into the book to keep my place (think receipt, paper clip, etc).
This crochet pattern is QUICK! I can make one in about 7 minutes!
Crochet bookmarks were the perfect solution. I can keep my place without ruining my book and I want to use them because they’re pretty. Plus, it’s always fun to write a new crochet pattern.
You can have a completed bookmark in under 10 minutes!
Dainty Daisy Bookmark Crochet Pattern
Materials:
- H crochet hook
- Small amounts of worsted weight yarn
- Buttons, needle, and thread for embellishing (optional)
- Tapestry Needle/Scissors for finishing
Directions
First make your daisy:
Ch 2.
Round 1: work 5 sc into the first ch. Sl st into the first sc to join.
Round 2: *ch 4, 3 tc, ch 4, sl st* in the first stitch. *sl st, ch 4, 3 tc, ch 4, sl st* in each of the remaining stitches (5 petals formed).
Cut yarn and weave ends.
Now make your “stem”!
Ch 7.
Step 1: sc in the second ch from the hook, hdc in the next, dc in the next 2 stitches, hdc in the next, sc in the next stitch. Ch 1.
Don’t turn. You will now be working into the back side of the stitches on the other side of the leaf.
Step 2: sc in the first st, hdc in the next, dc in the next 2 stitches, hdc in the next, sc in the next. Ch 1, sl st to the first sc you made in step 1.
Don’t cut your yarn!
Step 3: Chain 45 (or until your bookmark is the length you want). Cut yarn and leave a 6″ tail to sew onto the daisy.
Now assemble your daisy. Using the tail on your stem, sew your stem onto the backside of your dais
Weave your ends and voila! Your bookmark is complete.

I love so much these bookmarks! I did a lot of beautiful cardstock bookmarks when I was a teenager because I love reading and now I do cards and I have a blog for them. Most of them are based just on flowers. You know, I'm going to learn to crochet soon, so I'll come back again to your blog.<br /><br />Mariangela<br /><br />P.S. I'm writing from Italy.
