This is my page for patterns I designed.

Double Knit Cross Bookmark

Gauge doesn’t matter, but do pick yarns of the same weight.  I used Red Heart SuperSaver.  Not the thinnest yarn, but perfectly acceptable in a standard sized Bible.

I started from the bottom, CO 3 sts of each color (great tutorial for double-knitting here: http://golden-apples.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html, video on the May 2nd post), knit until it seemed tall enough, cast on 6 of each color for the next 2 rows, then when the bar was tall enough, bound off 6 sts of each color in the next two rows, then continued the middle until I was satistfied and BO.  The dangly bookmarky part was added on later with a crochet hook.
