This week’s Crochet Tip is something very simple – but very effective.
Crochet Tip: Finished Edges for your Crochet Project
If you want to add an crochet edging in a contrasting colour…
…crochet once around your project in the same colour as your final crocheted row – this will provide a tidy base for your edging stitches.
It really does make a huge difference to the look of your finished project!
