Crochet Pencil Bookmark – FREE Crochet Pattern

A couple of years ago, I created one of my most popular patterns, the Crochet Pencil Scarf Pattern. Since then, I have wanted to create similar patterns to accompany the scarf, and I thought a Crochet Pencil Bookmark would be a great addition!

This pattern is available for free here on my blog, but you can purchase an ad-free copy in my Etsy or Ko-Fi shops.

Enjoy!

Materials:

• Size E/3.5 mm crochet hook
• Worsted weight yarn in pink, gray, yellow, tan, and black
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle

Measurements:  1.75″ x 6″ blocked

Skill Level: Beginner

Notes:

• This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.
• This pattern can be easily adjusted to create a longer bookmark – simply add more rows to the “yellow” portion of the bookmark.
• When changing colors, create a Sc on the last St of your row, but do not yarn over and pull through the 2 loops on your hook with the same color – instead, pull your new color through the 2 loops to finish off your Sc .

Abbreviations:

• Ch —> Chain
• Sc —> Single Crochet
• Dec —> Decrease
• St(s) —> Stitch(es)
• () —> Total # of Sts
