The Kitty Cat Bookmark is a quick, easy, and completely no-sew project from Sweet Softies’ Chapter Keepers Collection.

This whimsical and cute design uses very little yarn, making it the perfect scrap yarn project. It’s also an instant-gratification project, as there’s no sewing and it works up fast. Featuring a kitten’s head on one end and tail on the other, it adds a cozy aesthetic and touch of yarn to any book.

This pattern is not only practical and lightweight but also makes a thoughtful, handmade gift for cat lovers, teachers, readers, book lovers, and bookworms alike. Whether for personal use, gifting (such as a Teacher Appreciation gift), or selling at craft fairs, the Kitty Cat Bookmark is a lovely way to bring a bit of feline charm to every page you turn!
