Bookmark "Ship"

Tuesday, June 22, 2021

Materials:
It is better to use cotton yarn. The colour being of your choice. I have brown for the ship, two shades of blue for the waves, and a small amount of white yarn for the sail.
The size of the ship is 5 cm. The bookmark length is 18 cm.
I used mercerized cotton «Pelican», 330 m/ 50 g. I crocheted with 2 strands!
- Crochet hooks in two sizes, I have № 1,25mm и №1,5mm
- Hollow fiber
- A piece of wire approx. 2,0 mm thick and 10 cm long
- A sewing needle
- Transparent glue

Abbreviations:
ch – chain
sl st – slip stitch
sc – single crochet
hdc – half double crochet
inc – increase (2 sc in 1 st)
dec – decrease (single crochet two stitches together)
(...) x N times – repeat instructions in brackets N times

11 ch
1) starting from 2nd ch from hook: inc, 8 sc, in the last stitch: 1 sc, 1 hdc, 1 sc; continue along the other side of chain: 8 sc, inc = 23
