PLEASE NOTE*******
As of Feb. 4th, I am in the process of revising this pattern to make it more accurate to the leaf pictured. I plan to have the revision posted by February 7th.
Remember this?
I have had several requests for the pattern here and on Ravelry, so here goes. I don't have the capacity to do a graphed pattern on my computer, so I have opted to use a sort of knitting shorthand instead of using words. Hopefully it will have a visual quality to it that will help you grasp the pattern of the pattern.
I used laceweight and size 3 needles. Your gauge may vary.
K= knit
O=yarn over
V= knit two together
Starting at the base of the leaf, cast on 5.
Row 1 KKOKOKK
All even numbered rows until row 10, purl across
Row3 KOVOKOVOK
Row 5 KOVKOKOVKOK
Row 7 KOVKOKOKOKOVKOK
Row 9 Bind off 3 OVKOKOVKOVKOK
Row 10 Bind off 3, purl remaining stitches.
Rows 11-16 Repeat rows 5-10 twice more.
Row 17 VVOKOVV
Row 18 Purl across
Row 19 Bind off 3, OKOVV
Row 20 Bind off 2, purl across
Row 21 Bind off 1, OV
Row 22 Knit 3 together
Break off, weave in ends. Block. Finish with cord and tassel or as desired.
Let me know if you have any problems with the pattern! I am kinda new at this.

Those snow pictures are something else. I can't remember the last time I saw snow. Pretty pictures.
The leaf bookmark looks so beautiful! I'm putting this pattern in my queue. It looks like a great way to use up little odds of lace weight yarn. Thanks so much for it!
Wooot! Congratulations on getting that pattern written up! You've been wanting to do it for a while, and of course now that means I have to try it . . . ;-)
Thanks for the pattern. I'll have to try it. I have been thinking of you and I appreciate your email to me. I'm really behind and I just wanted to let you know I hadn't forgotten you!
