Fan Book-mark

[cupcake]

 

The popularity of little guy still amazes me as people frequently email me for the pattern. As this is now buried somewhere in the thread section ( ) I thought I would post a link here to my blog that has the full instructions in both Australian / English, and American terms.

Thank you Cupcake! I made one of these in variegated yellow when you first posted the pattern as a gift. It's a great pattern and so thoughtful of you to share

[mimicat]

I have made some of this (can be seen in this post) and plan to make some more. Thanks for the pattern, cupcake!

It's a beautiful pattern. I've made several and given them away. Joked the other day w/ some friends that its bad when you have done 1 pattern so much that you can do it w/o looking at the pattern directions,lol. Thank you for sharing it.

Gorgeous bookmark!Thanks for the pattern.

Thanks for sharing your lovely pattern!

I have the pattern memorized, too! I've done them in soild and variegated, but the multis are my favorites. I add two more fans when I make them, that seems to balance it out better (just my own opinion).

Sunday at church I saw a friend with this bookmark in her scriptures. She most definitely does NOT crochet. She is a knitter (I know because I taught her.) I know she has another friend who crochets, and must have gotten it as a gift from her. I thought it was neat. I love the pattern.

There's an old Bernat pattern book for shawls, called "All Shawls" that uses a VERY similar fan pattern to edge one of the shawls.

 

I never thought of using that pattern stitch to make a bookmark, but I have considered turning it into a scarf.

 

There's a picture of the book with the shawl with the fan edging on this (ENDED) eBay auction. 3rd picture. Great book if you can find it.

Great Job on the bookmark Cupcake!!

It is a lovely pattern. I received some of them as donations for my bookmarks-to-shut-ins ministry and they were so very much appreciated by the seniors.

Isnt that interesting. Funny how things get arround. It is always nice to see people using things they have been given. It pleases me that this pattern has been such a hit.
