This is such a cute book mark. Thank you for sharing it! I’m going to make it tomorrow, looks like a fun book mark to make.

Thank you, that is lovely to hear. Let me know how you get on :)

So cute, I wish I had safety eyes😅

[@butfirstwecrochet3185]

Thank you! You can always make it without the safety eyes by using some black yarn in the same way the cheeks are made :)

This is adorable!! Thankyou for sharing this pattern.
I'm new to amigurumi, so I think that cute face will challenge me, but I need to try this.

[@butfirstwecrochet3185]

Thank you! You have nothing to worry about :) my bookmarks always come out looking slightly different, part of the charm of making something yourself ❤

[@FootballFanLeanne]

@@butfirstwecrochet3185 those little safety eyes are hard to find where I live, so the eyes will have to be made like the cheeks, but I think I can manage it. Thanks again.

[@butfirstwecrochet3185]

@@FootballFanLeanne Yes, you can do that for sure. You could even drop a couple of sizes on your hook to make them a bit smaller to maintain the slight size difference between the eyes and cheeks :)

How big is the book cover? Mine looks huge 😂!

[@butfirstwecrochet3185]

Hello there :) I've included the measurements on the blog post
If you've used the same yarn/hook then the final bookmark should measure as follows:
Amigurumi book: 6cm long, 4cm wide, and 1.5cm thick
Heart: around 3cm long and wide
Strap: approximately 24cm long
:)
