Materials

All my bookmarks have been made with 100% cotton and super fine weight yarn #1. I suggest you using this brand yarn, Yarnart begonia. It has a lot of colors for you to choose from. So that you can make a lot of bookmarks with various colors, that will make a colorful bookmark collection. Make with your favorite colors if you like or use like my colors you have seen.

I’m also using hook size 1.5 mm and Hamanaka is one of my favorite brands, find and buy Hamanaka hook on ETSY.

Besides, you will need some extra kinds of stuff as follows:

• Scissors, pins, needles, stuffings.
• Pair of safety eyes: size 8 mm.
