The Pen and Inkpot

I have a crafty activity for you in this post which is also related to books. In a previous post I have shown you how to make corner book marks, but now I have a new cute bookmark idea for you to try. All you will need is some wool in your chosen colour, a pair of scissors and your crafty little hands. Step 1: Set aside two lengths of wool, one around 20cm long and the other around 30cm. Step 2: Wrap the wool around two or three of your fingers loosely. Do this for about 2.5m of wool or until the loop is nice and thick. Step 3: Carefully take the wool off your fingers making sure that the loops of wool stay in place. Step 4: Take the shorter piece of wool you cut earlier and tie it around the middle of the pile of wool in your hand, pull it as tight as you can before tying it in a stable knot Step 5:  Cut between the loops on each end of the wool making sure not to cut the middle piece that is tying it all together.
