Back To School: Creamsicle Bookmark Pattern



The orange and white of this bookmark reminds me of a creamsicle!  Yum!  Since summer is coming to a close, it seemed only appropriate to join two of my favorite summer treats: ice cream and reading!  ;)  This works up quickly and can be done in TONS of color combos!

Materials:
2.00 mm steel hook
Size 10 crochet thread
Ribbon - About 1/4 inch thick

Ch 59.
R1: Tc in 5th ch from hook.  *ch 3.  Skip next 3 st.  Tc*  Repeat to last 2 ch's.  Ch 2, join with sl st in 1st ch made.  
R2: Ch 3.  7 dc in same space.  Sl st in next space.  Ch 3.  7 dc in same space.  *1 sc in next space.  8 dc in next space.*  Repeat to end.  Sl st, 8 dc, sl st in end space.  Now work around the other side.  Sl st in next space.  Ch 3.  7 dc in same space.  *1 sc in next space.  8 dc in next space.*  Repeat to end.  Join with sl st in top of ch 3.  Tie off and hide ends.

Weave ribbon between square spaces running up the middle of the bookmark.  Secure with glue dots or hot glue if desired.
