Welcome to another part of the “Beginners Can Crochet for Fall” series! Today, learn how to crochet this beautiful interlocking-around-the-diary pumpkin applique bookmark with a step-by-step tutorial for beginners. This crochet pumpkin bookmark with curly tendrils and double-leaf charms has a UNIQUE locking mechanism. You have to insert the joined pumpkin applique through the blob-slit in the crochet bookmark chain stitch string. You can also use this little pumpkin bookmark to close a diary or book securely after reading.
Since we have to crochet the basic chain stitch string in this crochet back-to-school autumn bookmark, you can crochet it for any size of the bookmark. About the crochet pumpkin, you just have to crochet flat pumpkin pieces just like you did in the crochet pumpkin coaster.
Then, just glue the two crochet pumpkin appliqués. We have to crochet two joined leaf sprouts as well as a crochet coiled vine, both of which are beginner-level crochet projects, and many of you might have already practiced them. You can easily crochet this complete bookmark in less than 20 minutes or at your own pace; you can crochet it even faster, but the learning is just 17 minutes. So, anyway, continue reading to learn more about this cutest fall bookmark project!

Tutorial to Crochet the Beautiful Pumpkin Applique Bookmark
This tutorial demonstrates creating a crochet pumpkin bookmark with an interlocking leaf loop. Begin with orange yarn to crochet two identical pumpkin appliques using a magic ring, half double crochets, and double crochets. Stitch the pieces together with wrong sides facing inward. Using green yarn, attach to the pumpkin top, chain the desired book length, and form an eight-chain interlocking loop. Add a small leaf using double crochets and a picot stitch. Create a curling vine by chaining fifteen and working two single crochets into each chain. Finish by weaving ends, using glue to secure the thin vine tail.
Difficulty Level: Easy.
Why this is the difficulty The pattern consists entirely of foundational stitches, works up quickly in short rounds, and requires minimal shaping. Sewing is limited to connecting two flat panels using a straightforward loop-matching method without complex counting.
