Every crocheter should have a library of stitches, available to use while designing. It can be a folder on your computer, binder with printed out patterns or bookmark section – whatever it is, be sure to create one right now if you haven’t already. Techniques, stitches, borders and edgings can be useful in many different projects, so don’t try to tell me that you are not going to make blankets! Something as simple as a baby lovey will look much more cute with a scalloped edge, and your newly crocheted blouse will definitely look more polished with amazing lacy border. There is so much inspiration in Crochet Blanket Edgings, that you can even use them to come up with repetitive stitches. So, what will your next project be? Will it have fun pompoms all around the edge, delicate lace or thick and structural border? You decide! Take a look at the examples below and get inspired!
