Beginning needlewomen are faced with the question of why a crochet is necessary (the diagrams are presented below) of the edge of the finished product. Which pattern is best for this? Yes, so that he gives the blouse a finished look or makes a simple sirloin elegant.
What is it for?
There are several reasons why you might need a crochet (patterns are required). Firstly, it gives a finished look to the product. So the neck or cuffs, the sides of the jackets or the bottom of the product look more beautiful and neater.
Secondly, the fabric knitted or crocheted is twisted from the bottom. This spoils the look of the product. The tight binding slightly pulls it down, which prevents it from twisting.
Thirdly, it can play an auxiliary role in connecting parts of the product. For example, skirts and ruffles or blouses with a yoke.
Fourth, it simply performs a decorative function. This is true for napkins and curtains.
It is used not only for knitwear, but also for those that are sewn from fabric.
Delicate pattern
It is required when the product is self-sufficient. No need to draw attention to the edge. The figure below shows such patterns (crochet). The binding patterns are simple and straightforward.
For beginners, a description of the second pattern is presented here. Its first two rows are formed by single crochet with one loop for lifting. They serve as the basis for a modest pattern, which consists of only one row - the third.
Rise - again one loop. Single crochet in the first loop. Here the repeating pattern begins: three airy, double crochet in the first knitted column. Three aerials and single crochet in the fourth of the previous row. Repeat until the end of the product.
Wrapping step
It is used when a very thin and neat outline is needed. Before you start crocheting the hemming scheme in this way, you need to evaluate its appearance. If it is uneven, then the first thing is a row of crochets.
"Rachich step" is also a single crochet, only it runs in the opposite direction. Usually the direction of knitting goes from right to left. In the "step", the movement is from left to right.
Long fringed shawl harness
Of course, it can be done by simply cutting the threads into pieces and securing along the edge. But such a fringe will not look neat, it will become confused. Better if it's still a quality crochet shawl. Her schemes are so simple that even a beginner needlewoman will cope with them.
It is recommended to start processing the edge with a number of double crochet posts. They will be the basis for a long fringe. The second row is the fringe itself. Depending on the thickness of the selected thread and the desired length of the fringe, you need to dial a chain of air loops. It is clear that they should not be less than 25. Otherwise, the fringe of the harness will be very short.
Then close a small ring on the edge of the fringe, making a single crochet in the fifth loop from the hook. Then tie another chain of such a number of loops so that it is 5 shorter than the previous one. Attach the chain to the canvas, skipping one column of the previous row. One turn of the fringe is ready. Continue knitting them around the edge of the shawl.
This fringe looks interesting if made from chains of different lengths. You can even tie it in waves. First, gradually increasing the length of the fringe, and then also decreasing. It will be beautiful.
Wide pattern
Such openwork crochet (simple patterns) will be required to process the edges of the tablecloth or napkin. It can be used on the bottom of a simple skirt, and it will immediately become elegant. It will look especially impressive if you take a thread of section dyeing.
The first row of strapping is the base. It consists of double crochet posts that alternate with two air loops. It turns out a mesh pattern. The main openwork pattern of the harness will be attached to it.
Second row: lifting loop, three aerial loops of the pattern, 4 double crochets in the second mesh of the previous row, three aerial, make a connecting column, skipping one cell. That is, every second cell of the mesh pattern is unused. Continue to the end of the row from where “three air patterns” are indicated.
Crochet continues (the schemes will help you) in the third row: three lifting loops, three air loops of the pattern, a connecting column in the first of the group of columns of the previous row, 4 air ones, connecting in the last column of the group, six air patterns and repeat the arch above the columns. Continue to knit the pattern as described from the moment of “six air patterns”.
Fourth row: three lifting loops, three double crochets, three aerial patterns and a connecting column in an arch of four air, three air loops and 4 double crochets in an arch of six loops. Continue to knit the pattern with the words “three air patterns”.
Repeat the third and fourth rows two more times, so that there are only 8. The ninth row again, repeat the third. The last - the tenth row - consists of a wider border. Connecting column, 4 aerial patterns, three double crochet posts in an arch of six loops, a pico of 6 loops, again three double crochet posts, 4 air ones, a connecting post in a small arch. Continue to knit the pattern as described with the words “4 air patterns”.
"Frostwork"
This is another openwork crochet (patterns available) the edges of the product. The pattern will be repeated every seven loops. The first row you need to create a uniform border of columns without a crochet, so that it is easier to count the loops of the pattern to tie the edges.
In the second row, you need to climb from one loop, knit a single crochet into the first vertex of the previous row, 2 airs and another single crochet into the 4th, 5 double crochets into one base - the seventh, skip two vertices and repeat the described pattern.
The third row begins with a climb formed by a single loop. Then there is a connecting column in the first loop of the second row, 2 airs, run a double crochet at each vertex of the same column, dividing them with one air loop, connecting column - in an arch of two air. Continue knitting such “fans” to the end of the row.
The fourth row requires three lifting loops. Then, immediately, “fans” of crocheted columns fit in, between these columns it is now supposed to make two air loops.
The fifth row will be single crochet in each space formed by air loops. There should be three of them. Knit a chain of seven stitches over the tops of the double crochet stitches.
