Lavender Inspired Bookmark


Here is another bookmark that was inspired by the blooms in my yard!


I love lavender! I keep a small sachet filled with dry lavender in my socks drawer. 




I also use lavender oil for a body scrub that I make myself. I used to buy sea salt scrubs, but now I make them myself (at a much lower cost). I simply mix together fine grain sea salt and organic coconut oil (in about equal proportions), and ad a drop of lavender oil



But back to my bookmark. 

It's a simple pattern. I used size 1.25 mm crochet steel hook and a small amount of crochet cotton thread size ten. 

I now have a collection of five lace bookmarks in different spring colors. 


The pattern is available in my Etsy and Craftsy shops.

  4. I love lavender too. The older I get the more it calms me. Both the fragrance and the color. I will have to make some of your scrub. And your gorgeous bookmark!
