Finishing tips: Make sure to weave in all ends neatly with your yarn needle. If you prefer a neater shape, you can very lightly block the bookmark. To add a hint of lavender, consider tucking a tiny dried lavender bud into the stitches or applying a very small amount of lavender essential oil sparingly to the yarn (allow to dry) — test first on a scrap to check for staining or color change.
