    This is a free crochet pattern for a crochet leaf bookmark. This bookmark features a little corner pocket to slip over the corner of your book pages instead!


    If you’ve been following me for any length of time, then you know how much I love functional crochet patterns. Even better if it’s a multi-functional design!

    This cute little crochet leaf bookmark is quick and simple to whip up and can be used in one of two ways. Of course, you can use it like a traditional bookmark with the tassel hanging out of the bottom of the book. Alternatively, this crochet leaf bookmark features a corner pocket so that you can slip it over the corners of your pages instead! Remember that I said I like multi-functional?

    When choosing which yarn to use, you can use worsted weight yarn, however, DK weight or thinner might be best for this bookmark. This is a great stash buster pattern! Use up those scraps to crank out these bookmarks as gifts or market prep. You could even make a bunch to donate to your local library as handouts for reading programs. There are lots of possibilities here!

    THE PATTERN WAS A DESIGN CAL

    Recently I created a new type of crochet alongs and they are called Design CALs. They are hosted as part of my “The Crochet Club” membership and can only be accessed as a member.

    These Design CALs are super special because members have input on how the pattern turns out. We start the pattern with an idea and every week, for up to 4 weeks, the pattern is extended until it’s done. All through video tutorials, one each week.

    Sign up to receive email newsletters from Nicki's Homemade Crafts to be notified of new free crochet patterns, tutorials and get access to the 8 tips immediately.

    There is a new Design CAL each month now. Sometimes we even have several Design CALs each month, depending on how long each pattern takes to finish.

    This crochet leaf bookmark was designed in early fall of 2022 in The Crochet Club. It was a highly requested pattern.

    You’ll be able to find all the video tutorials in The Crochet Club as they are exclusive to the membership. But the pattern is now accessible also on my website for you with ads, or Ravelry, Etsy, and LoveCrafts as a pdf without ads.
