I used to be the kind of person who would use a folded receipt, a piece of scrap paper, just whatever was nearby as a bookmark. In the last few years, I’ve begun getting really great bookmarks as gifts and lucking upon them in used books all of the time. Now I am a devoted fan of the bookmark. Right now, I’m using one that Shaun found for me that is a cross-stitch of the word “book” in Russian. I’m sort of obsessed with it.
I also have a habit of looking for cute ones on Etsy to give away and use myself. Here are some that I currently have bookmarked:
You Are Here… on a bookmark… with a map. Clever and cute.

This seller makes a ton of fabric bookmarks. For some reason, they just seem so sweet to me. I love this one, but if you look in her store, I know you’ll find a ton that you can’t live without.

And.. my favorite. This is hilarious. A knitted, squashed rat? Morbid little me is pretty much obsessed.
The seller is only selling the pattern, so you have to be on your knitting game to get this one. If you do make one, just go ahead and make two and send me one. Thanks!
