Adding a Crochet Border to Knitting

This video demonstrates how to add a crochet border to your knitting. Crochet borders look lovely when added to knitted fabrics, and help to neaten your edges without adding too much extra length or width to your project. I've demonstrated how to work a crochet border around a square to show how to ease your stitches around a corner.

This has made my life so much easier! I’ve never been able to get my brain round crochet, but you went slow enough, and I could see everything perfectly! Very proud of my first blanket border ❤️ can’t wait to watch more of your videos and learn more 🥰

I haven’t crocheted since I was a little girl and my grandmother sat with me and showed me. Your tutorial was very easy to follow and was perfect to get me started. Thank you 🙏

The tip about the crochet hook size just saved me a lot of time. I went down a size before bit problem of puckering continued so goin up a size solved that problem. Thank you very much.

My very first crochet border on a knit baby blanket! Thank you for making it so easy!

That was super easy. Thank you. My scarf edges are curling with this pattern and this is perfect to keep them straight

This is a very good tutorial but I can’t get my mind around crocheting generally so I just ended up getting my mum to do it
Thank you all the same for a very helpful video, it’s not you, it’s me

[andrearothkimmich]

excellent pacing! great insight and tips. thank you.

[dorothybroadman]

thanks so much. how do you weave in the tail so it's secure and looks good on both sides?

[teeshelly]

Would you mind to do a video showing how to get the edges the way you described? As a beginner, it is difficult to understand how to get those nice ends like yours. Thank you!! Your teaching style is terrific!!

I am visually impaired and like many others, I have trouble seeing when there is little contrast between colors, this demo uses white yarn against a white background and thus I can’t see the demonstration well. Suggest a red or dark blue yarn. Thanks.

I loom knit and I started crocheting my borders, I have a question should my work have the front facing me or the back wrong side facing me when I start the first row of border?

[rebeccavosloo]

Once you have done this how do you attach them all together to make a blanket

[adrianajohnson]

Great video!! Question: how do you add yarn if you run out in the middle of crotchet border? Thanks!
