Crochet Pencil Bookmark

It’s back to school time! I love making things for my kids to celebrate the beginning of the school year. This crochet pencil bookmark is the perfect quick and easy project. It’s easy to find the time to make this while busy preparing for a new school year.

I made this bookmark using a 5mm hook and Big Twist Value yarn. I used this yarn because it is what I had on hand. This project would probably be even better if a lighter weight yarn is used.
