I’m certain that one can not have too many books!
A knitted bookmark is a wonderful gift for a book-lover. And it’s so cute in your bookshelf! Goes with every book and anything in general.
Two options to choose from: a Christmas tree or a cactus!

Knitted in the round in one piece using simple stockinette stitch - the Greenery bookmarks are simple and quick to knit and you can accomplish them using any small ball of yarn.
The Cactus bookmark is knitted top-down. The Christmas tree bookmark is worked bottom-up.
For both, after stuffing, a simple twist cord goes between the pages.
You need to know how to knit, purl, basic increase, and decrease.

· Standard American terms, with written instructions
