It’s time to build your crochet chops.
While seasonal projects are all fine and dandy, it’s the general use, staple techniques that make or break the crocheter. Therefore, it’s always a good idea to learn and practice useful stitches. To this end, here are some borders for C2C blanket projects. C2C is a wonderful way of building up large projects with geometric designs. Overall, even though you do this manually it’s almost a digital way of crocheting. However, these projects need a great finish to be truly complete. This is best done by a great border. Better still, these edges can also match other projects as well, giving you possibility to versify your projects.

To begin with, this C2C blanket is a classic updated with a fun, rainbow pastel design. However, the real coup de grace is the tight, dense border with a crisp edge.

Next, here is a slightly more classic design, but with a fancier border. In particular, I love this border’s change of texture.
