This is an Irish Crochet bookmark which consists of 2 roses, 1 bud spray, 3 flowers, and 1 smaller flower, which are all tacked to a lace handle. A tassel and cord are added after all the motifs are tacked to the lace handle.

You can either sew the motifs in place or glue them in place with fabric glue. The instructions have a reminder that fabric glue is permanent once you place the floral motifs onto the handle.

Using size 10 crochet thread, the completed bookmark measures about 5 3/4 inches long (without the tassel and cord), and it’s about 2 1/3 inches wide at its widest width.

The instructions call for size 10 crochet thread and a size 7 crochet hook. The instructions don’t give the yardage needed, nor do the instructions mention the brand of thread which was used to create the original bookmarks.

The instructions recommend using spray starch on the completed bookmark while blocking it so that it will hold it’s shape better.
