This tutorial is in German but it is quite self-explanatory. I will summarize the steps for you in English:

  1. Take a picture of yourself like on the Pin above.
  2. Adjust the size of the picture to make it the size of an average bookmark. Print it.
  3. Take some cardboard or very strong paper, use your picture as a template and cut it out. Glue your picture on the paper/cardboard. Make a second piece of cardboard and place the knitting yarn between the two pieces of cardboard. Glue the knitting yarn into the position that fits your picture.
  4. Turn the end of the knitting yarn into a tassel. Use the tutorial below as a guide.
