A few days ago I had the following sent to me from Jane. Remember Jane from a few days ago?
She said
The original pattern is from Anna Burda magazine, May 1984, page L14. I 'converted' another braid on the Anna page, but this one was very easy, as you can see. Also much easier and neater using split rings. I used size 10 thread and turned it into bookmarks by adding a tassel.

The pattern for the bookmarks looks like this:
SR 1: 6/6
R each side: 4-2-2-4
SR 4: 6/6
R each side: 5+5-2-2-5-5
Repeat, with the next small ring each side joining to the large ring, 4+2-2-4.
I ended with a split ring after two small rings, and attached a tassel to the bottom, and used size 10 thread.
The bookmarks are simple and elegant! I guess I'll have to start practicing that split ring that Laura taught me last summer!
ReplyDeleteVery cool looking bookmarks. I like that pattern. I guess I'll have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteHi Jane,
ReplyDeleteI really like the geometry of this pattern and it looks as if it would be a very practical, usable bookmark! I often think that some bookmarks look really lovely, but only as eye candy and not for actual use!
They look very pretty and easy to make. Another pattern to the list. :-)
