This little knitted yarn ball bookmark is a great way to enjoy your favorite book! I made mine with heavily worsted yarn and size 8 dpns, but you can use any weight yarn and just adjust the cast on stitches to create the same size ball (instructions in the pattern).

This yarn ball bookmark starts with a knitted i-cord but requires some basic sewing and a few other craft supplies in assembling this bookmark. However, the construction is quite easy and worth it to make this cute bookmark. The pattern also includes directions for making small knitting needles to go with your yarn ball bookmark, though this is optional.

A great gift for your knitting friends!
