Don't lose these patterns! 


These bookmarks were made by me using free patterns found the web with some own changes.
The idea of making these cute little projects started by the request of a good friend of mine, who is a teacher and also a fellow crafter, but lately having not much time to crochet.

Devoted to her work and students, she thought to give small crochet surprises to her first grade students having good results and a nice behavior.

Wanting to give her a helping hand in this project, I've asked myself what would be cute, but at the same time useful for the little students, something that they will love!

These bookmarks are just a part of my surprises for her students.

In the original pattern there is only one clover and a bead at the other end. I didn't have beads, so I made another clover instead.

I hope that you and your kids will also love this cute and fun little bookmarks!
I have really enjoyed making them! :)
