Description This is gift I made for a very special lady who though I have never had the pleasure of meeting her face to face has been a wonderful friend and has always been supportive and encouraging through the good times and the bad.

This bookmark is specially made for [link]
If you want to see some gorgeous lace chokers and beaded necklaces check out her gallery.

She said she wanted a celtic knot design with jewel tones, so I selected the royal purple and silver. When working out the design though I found i needed something to center the colours and so made the center knot in the saphire blue.

I hope she likes it I had alot of fun making it.

This is done on black aida cloth 14 count

thank you and you should, its alot of fun
I cannot read on busses or car trips but somehow I can do cross-stitch without getting motion sick so its great for having to commute to campus every day cuz you can just keep it in a purse or schoolbag.

I'm really glad you like it. It did take some time counting out the outline. But after that it went quite smoothly. Besides gave me something to do while my university has been on strike

And you are most welcome
