A bookmark with a star and a heart, to express love and tenderness to the people you care about. It was made in the spirit of Christmas, but using other colours, it will make a very personal gift all year round. The star and heart are inspired by classic crochet patterns, the cord is made using the Romanian lace technique and makes it a beautiful object to slip into your favourite books. The bookmark is quite easy to make, it just takes a little time to understand how the Romanian lace technique works. The PDF tutorial includes 2 main diagrams and 14 detail diagrams as well as a step-by-step explanation with 22 photos.
(The star comes from « 100 Snowflakes to crochet », Caitlin Sainio, Quarto Inc.)
