DIY Flower Loom Bookmark

On my first post I made a flower loom hair tie and it is absolutely gorgeous. (Please do not judge me, I did try my best)The flower loom is so easy to make and is so versatile. Then I thought to myself, "Why not make a flower loom bookmark?" - A friendship band and a flower loom. What a great combo and it is so meaningful. It will be a great gift for my girl friends. They will love it.(I hope...)

Let's have some fun!

Crafting Time:
2 lunch breaks (2 hours)
- 1 hour for the making the friendship band
- 1 hour for the flower loom and sewing it together 

Ingredients:
- Yarn (I cut the yarn into 4 strands and each is about a meter long)
- Scissors
- 1 ice cream stick (Optional, you can use anything to hold the yarn)
- 1 recycle Sangenic nappybin cassette (Optional, you can use anything to hold the yarn)
- Thread and Needle (to sew the flower loom and friendship band together)
- A book (to measure the length of the friendship band)  

Instructions:
The diagrams as follow will show you how.
Have fun crafting!
Tips: Even though the diagrams look complicated, but it isn't. If I can do it, anyone can do it too. Basically, it is using the first strand from the left and tie a knot repetitively with the rest of the strands from left to right. Then repeat the same method on the first strand on the left.
