Simple knitting pattern for a charming, festive pumpkin bookmark. It is a highly practical, comfortable, and unique book accessory designed to be knitted completely flat on two straight needles.

Detailed guide with step-by-step row instructions and photos. Written in standard English using US terms.

This project works well as a stash-buster. It requires only tiny amounts of yarn, making it a wonderful way to use up leftover yarn scraps. The original bookmark in the photos is knitted from sport weight yarn (YarnArt Jeans), but any preferred yarn of a similar weight will work perfectly.

Note: Avoid using bulky or thick yarn so the bookmark sits flat inside books.
