Bookmark

I decided to make a bookmark using the same triangles from my previous posts, this time in Lizbeth size 80 Rainbow Taffy.


Here's another photo of it in The Complete DMC Encyclopedia of Needlework, which I found for a few dollars at a local used book store:


I'm making a few more patterns (repeatable squares), and after that I will be finished with my triangle experiments. I'll make a post showing all of the triangle patterns together when I'm done.

That is a great bookmark, and I really like the way you've created the tail! I think I need to look at my DMC book again!

I've just been working on a (free) written pattern for this, which still needs to be proofread and tested. I'll make a blog post with the diagram and some basic details, either tonight or tomorrow. That way people can start on it without having to wait for me to finish up the full document :)
