How to Crochet - An Even Crochet Edging

This video demonstrates an easy way to create an even edging along the uneven side of our work. Visit my blog for more crochet fun (http://yarnobsession-2.blogspot.com)

Thanks for watching my video.

The edging demonstrated here is the Half-Double crochet edging, however, the technique can be used for the single crochet or any other basic stitch used as an edging.

I have beautiful free crochet patterns on my blog - http://yarnobsession-2.blogspot.com/search/label/free%20pattern

Sediesells.......I have the answer.....patterns are patterns & some corners REQUIRE "2 chains" - and - some corners REQUIRE "3 chains*** and*** the CHAINS MUST BE PLACED AT THE "STATED" LOCATION". Take Care & I Hope You Have A Blessed Day In Jesus' Precious Name.

@incandescent62 Very good, I was going to ask for the pattern you were working on to help with the corner. I'm glad you found the answer. Have a wonderful day!

@incandescent62 Thank you! I'm guessing it helped and that is all I can hope for!

Your "hope" has been fulfilled! I "clicked" into your demo while searching for "tips" on "PERFECT" SQUARE CORNERED "SOLID" AFGHAN. Do you have any tips concerning the aforementioned? Please advise....Thank you for your patience & time. God Bless!!!

@chinewmarie Hi there! Congrats on finishing the scarf. To answer your question, yes, you can use this method on the double crochet. If at the end of your double crochet rows you chained 2, then when doing the edging just put two stitches (whichever stitches you're using for your edging) in the row chain. If you chained 3 (some people chain two some chain 3 for the double crochet turning chain) then use three stitches in the turning chain for your edging. Let me know if that helps. Enjoy!

I am almost done with a basic double crochet scafr however I am somewhat embarrassed at how the edges look! they go in and out and look like wave and uneven. I plan on folding it in have when my daughter wears it and she doesn't mind because she just wants to start wearing it, however would this method still apply to double crochet also?
