Many needlewomen, having connected a new masterpiece, are faced with the feeling that it looks somehow unfinished. There is an acute desire to continue working in order to give the shawl or blouse a more perfect appearance. At the same time, someone simply decides to tie the finished product along the contour with the so-called "crustacean step". Someone selects a more complex pattern for this purpose. You can, of course, do it this way, but any product with a crochet hem sewn along the edge looks much prettier. If desired, this decorative element can be immediately knitted along the contour of the manufactured product. This avoids unnecessary seams.
It can be knitted from the same yarn as the main product. In this case, she will not only give it a finished look, but can make it more beautiful. Many people use this method for finishing the neck of knitted dresses or sweaters. If the crochet border is crocheted of contrasting yarn, then it can become the main decorative element of the finished product. Its unique openwork will give the product airiness and lightness, for example, in the case of making a white dress with black trim.
If crocheting is your hobby, the border should be familiar to you. Many even begin to learn the basics of this type of needlework with its help. Indeed, in the process of its creation, depending on the complexity of the pattern, you will have to learn to knit not only air loops or single crochets, but also many other elements that will be useful later in the manufacture of new products.
It is worth noting that many needlewomen, having incorrectly calculated the length of the product, actively use this method of eliminating marriage. After all, the crochet border allows not only to increase the size, but also to give the knitwear an individuality and special chic. Shawls look especially beautiful in this case, the basis of which is connected by a fairly dense pattern, which is then decorated with a beautiful openwork. With the help of a hook you can create truly unique products. Therefore, it is not surprising that this method of needlework enjoys so much attention in the beautiful half of humanity.
A wide crochet border can be used as an independent product. It can, for example, be used as a turn-down collar for a child or adult dress.
Now many mothers are trying to buy a
business suit or dress for their daughter in which she can attend school daily. Such a beautiful element can be a great addition to school uniforms.
It is worth noting that the crochet border can be widely used in home decoration. Very many housewives who own this type of needlework decorate their curtains or curtains in this way. Very often, this type of decoration can be found in the countryside, where towels and sheets are decorated with it. Just a few decades ago, many housewives decorated their house. Now the fashion has changed a bit, so the border is most often used for decorating various clothes.
