Peter is both a whimsical cuff and delightful bookmark.

Inspired by Beatrix Potter’s The Tale of Peter Rabbit, this sweet little accessory puts the fun in functional! Peter is the perfect gift for readers of all ages, especially those who are fond of bunnies, and is a rather quick project to knit. The blue band, which is both the bookmark and cuff, is reminiscent of Peter Rabbit’s blue jacket with gold buttons.
