  • This video demonstrates how to add a crochet border to your knitting. Crochet borders look lovely when added to knitted fabrics, and help to neaten your edges without adding too much extra length or width to your project. I've demonstrated how to work a crochet border around a square to show how to ease your stitches around a corner.

    The tip about the crochet hook size just saved me a lot of time. I went down a size before bit problem of puckering continued so goin up a size solved that problem. Thank you very much.

    I haven’t crocheted since I was a little girl and my grandmother sat with me and showed me. Your tutorial was very easy to follow and was perfect to get me started. Thank you 🙏

    That was super easy. Thank you. My scarf edges are curling with this pattern and this is perfect to keep them straight

    This is a very good tutorial but I can’t get my mind around crocheting generally so I just ended up getting my mum to do it
    Thank you all the same for a very helpful video, it’s not you, it’s me

    Once you have done this how do you attach them all together to make a blanket

    thanks so much. how do you weave in the tail so it's secure and looks good on both sides?

    I loom knit and I started crocheting my borders, I have a question should my work have the front facing me or the back wrong side facing me when I start the first row of border?

  • @teeshelly

    Would you mind to do a video showing how to get the edges the way you described? As a beginner, it is difficult to understand how to get those nice ends like yours. Thank you!! Your teaching style is terrific!!

  • @ooohlaa13

    HI LOVELY!! Would this work the same for stockinette stitch, I mean following your instruct for the side chain effect? If not can you iterate how to get same effect? I have a large st st wall hanging and the sides are curling. Its already done so I cannot change that but would like to know for the future. Will this formula keep a large piece from curling?

    I am visually impaired and like many others, I have trouble seeing when there is little contrast between colors, this demo uses white yarn against a white background and thus I can’t see the demonstration well. Suggest a red or dark blue yarn. Thanks.

    • @TheSweaterCollective
      @TheSweaterCollective  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Judy, thank you so much for your feedback. It was definitely a fault on my part to use low contrast colours when I filmed this video, and it's something I've been conscious to avoid since. I'm so sorry for the difficulty it causes to see what's being demonstrated. If I have the opportunity to refilm this tutorial, I'll absolutely make sure I have darker yarn available for the crochet. Thank you, and my sincerest apologies again ♥️

    I never start in a corner. My finding has been that it makes a neater border if I start in the middle of the bottom.

  • @haedinleland4878
    @haedinleland4878 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi, if I were to do a larger border, such as increasing the stitch count to 4 or 5, would I go do that many treble stitches on each corner? Or is it universally 3 treble stitches on each corner no matter what?

    • @romystumpy1197
      @romystumpy1197 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I watch alot of crochet channels crocheting blankets and it seems the norm to crochet 3 stitches in the corner,whether it's SC DC etc

    Great video!! Question: how do you add yarn if you run out in the middle of crotchet border? Thanks!

    Thank you

    How many stitches did you cast on for square and how many rows did you do

    • @TheSweaterCollective
      @TheSweaterCollective  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm so sorry that I can't remember anymore, this was just a sample square that I knit a few years ago. Trying to count from the thumbnail, I think it might have been 30 stitches over 54 rows?

    Horrible wavy effect on recording. Couldn’t watch

    It’s called a yarn over. Not a wrap around.

    • @TheSweaterCollective
      @TheSweaterCollective  4 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      Thank you for your feedback. This is just intended as a very easy video for knitters to understand, and as a support for a small description in one of my patterns. As a "yarn over" in knitting is worked in the opposite direction to one in crochet, I've used "wrap around" to avoid that confusion, and to avoid going into a more in-depth lesson of crochet.
