Some one asked how to do this and I told them I would make a video of how I do it.
Making a twisted rope on a bookmark
Here is a picture of the bookmark in the video after I added a tassel using the green thread to make the wraps of the tassel:

It was not blocked when I took this picture. I used Lizbeth 20 jellybean and the pattern is my own adaptation of the 'Wave' bookmark by Sandy Scales in Tatted Bookmarks Needle and Shuttle from Handy Hands. I changed the ends and used 2 shuttles.
I hope this helps someone.

Thank you, Rachael, for making the video showing how to make the cord. I appreciate it! I watched the video for making the tassel again and this time I noticed the bookmark... it is lovely! What pattern is it?

Linda the one in the tassel video is the Black Magic Cross. It was one of a set of three that took the first place at the Maricopa County Fair.

Thanks so much for the video on the twisted rope as well at the tassel. I was wondering how to do that.

I've made cord that way for my dollhouse furniture, but never thought of using it for a bookmark. Thank you for the idea!
