Mayfield Leaf Bookmark

By -


I really want to knit this bookmark, about 30 times. I'm thinking Christmas bookmarks....I love the look and idea. I have to buy the pattern now and conquer it... It looks .....hard.

Remember when they took the Barbie off the market, that said, "math is HARD". Well, shoot it is for some of us wordy folk..

I'm off to purchase the pattern and figure it out. 4 months to Christmas.......say I make 8 a month.....hmmmmmm.....let's say I make one first!

I have the new pattern, great idea, love the look feeling in my knit heart today!

Cute bookmark! I think you can master it, it doesn't look too hard.

What a neat idea! I did bookmarks - flat, of my own design - one year for gifts. They're very quick knitting. Love this design.

Very neat! It does look hard, but I know you can figure it out. Happy knitting!

Alas, most of the "readers" on my gift list have gone to e-readers. Personally I still like turning pages, but I am about to invest in an e-reader now that the public libraries in my area have finally gotten e-loan capabilities.

That is so cute. You can do it!! The bookmark is a perfect solution for Christmas gifts but like fancystitching I don't know anyone who reads REAL books anymore. That's a little sad isn't it?

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
