Pattern Description:

I made this reading character bookmark for anyone who enjoys the Mad Hatter's flair.

The pattern includes description of abbreviations and complete instructions.

This is a fun bookmark for the experienced crocheter to make.

It uses small amounts of crochet thread and any colors can be used so it is a great project to use up small amounts of crochet thread (28 yards being the most that is needed).

This is a larger size hook than usually used with thread crochet and makes working with thread crochet easier for those who are not comfortable with thread.
