Crochet a colorful bookmark that looks like a delicious treat! These handmade pieces are not only functional but also look incredibly sweet and cute. Follow Maro Kakali’s pattern to create a fun bookmark with a playful tassel on one end and a tasty cupcake on the other. Keep this precious accessory for yourself or make several to share with your friends!
How Is The Cupcake Bookmark Constructed Step By Step?
This Cupcake Bookmark crochet pattern will suit beginners who would like to learn how to make a fun reading accessory. You start by crocheting the cupcake top in rounds using single crochets, increases, decreases, and a magic ring.
Once the cupcake is done, you make a long chain strip that will go between the pages. Now, you can finish your bookmark with a cute pompom at the top, a dangling tassel at the bottom, and that’s it!
What Yarn And Hook Size Do I Need?
If you’d like to use up some leftover yarn from your previous projects, this bookmark pattern is perfect for doing so. It will work great with fingering yarn (such as Scheepjes Catona) and a 2.5 mm crochet hook. You can also use other weights, but this may change the finished size of your bookmark, and you may need to adjust the pattern.
The designer also used a small craft pom pom to decorate the cupcake. You can buy them on Amazon or ask for them at your local craft store.
How Quick Is This Project To Crochet?
This crochet bookmark pattern is very quick to complete. It features a straightforward construction and uses simple stitches, so you can crochet a whole bunch of them in a flash. One piece should take you from 15 to 30 minutes, depending on your skill and overall crocheting speed.
