Anyone who has never crocheted before should first practice, and only then proceed to create a strapping:
- Cast on a chain of about twenty loops (although 10 is enough for training).
- Knit several rows of six columns b / n (single crochet). It is advisable to follow the direction - from right to left.
- Subsequent rows need to begin to begin differently than in the first. Knit should be from air columns.
- Pass the hook under the third loop (you need to grab the thread and then pull it up).
- The resulting loops (there should be two of them) must be tied together.
As a result, you should get such an even canvas:
Now let's figure out how crochet a square neck sweatshirts:

- One end of the thread should be fastened at the edge of the shoulder seam
- Next, we make a regular loop (air)
- You need to put a hook under this loop to pick up the thread and pull it out.
- The resulting loops are tied together
- As a result, only one loop should remain (from it you need to start the knitting process from the very beginning)

Crocheting the edges of a knitted product
Crocheting the edges of a knitted product
Finishes and embellishes the edges of cutouts, armholes and crochet cuts and is done on knitted details or separately and then sewn during assembly with the same thread or a thread of a different color. All types of finishing are performed easily and decorate the knitted fabric.
"Rach step"
The most common type of finish that does not require special attention when performing it.
The "crustacean step" finish is compact, prevents stretching of the edge of the product and is very suitable for warm clothes.
1. First work one straight row or row in the round with a single crochet, inserting your hook around each st or chain below.
2. Without turning the work, knit with a “crustacean step”: insert the hook into the 2nd loop and pull up the thread, yarn over and close both loops.
3. Continue in the same way to the end of the row, cut the thread and fasten off. To achieve a good result, you need to maintain a uniform thread tension.
Usually performed in a circle. It can also be performed in straight and reverse rows, but at the same time, the thread is cut at the end of the first row, and the second row begins with the first loop of the first row.
1. Knit a row in a circle with single crochets. 2nd row: * with 3 single crochets, 1 picot (= chain 4 and a half single crochet in 1st st of chain of 4 chains) *, repeat from * to * until the end of the row and end with a double crochet without a crochet.
2. This is how the border looks after completing the 2nd row.
"Bumps"
1. This finishing is done in a circle or in two straight rows only on the front side of the work. Work 1st straight row or 1st row in the round with single crochet, 2nd row or 2nd round: chain 2, * skip the loop of the previous row, half double crochet in the next loop (grab the thread and insert the hook under loop just made, grab the thread again and pull up the loop) 2 times. Knit 5 received loops *. Repeat from * to * to the end of the row and end with a half single crochet in the 2nd stitch of the initial chain, if knitting in a circle; and a half-column with a crochet, if you knit in straight rows.
2. Thick and soft finish is good for classic and elegant pieces.
1. This finishing is performed in a circle or on two straight rows only on the front side of the work. Work the first straight row or 1st row in the round with single crochet, 2nd row or 2nd round: * in the loop of the previous row, single crochet (1st single crochet is always replaced by a chain loop), 3 chain loops and 2 more unfinished double crochets and knit together the 3 loops on the hook, skip 3 loops of the base *. Repeat from * to * to the end of the row and end with a half single crochet in the 1st initial stitch if working in the round and with a single crochet in the last stitch if working in straight rows.
2. Lightweight and soft finish is suitable for the hems of children's clothing, light summer jumpers, sweaters and tops.
intertwined arches
1. This two-colour finish is done in a circle or two straight rows on the front side of the work only. Knit 1st straight row or 1st row in a circle with single crochet (the number of loops is a multiple of 3 + 1 loop). 2nd row or 2nd round: * from the loops of the previous row, single crochet, chain 3, skip 2 base loops *. Repeat from * to * to the end and end with a half single crochet in the 1st initial stitch if working in the round, and with a single crochet in the last stitch if working in straight rows. Cut the thread and yarn in a contrasting color, single crochet in the 1st loop of the previous row, 3 air loops, pull out the hook and insert it under the arch of the 3 air loops of the previous row, grab the left air loop and yarn and chain stitch *. Repeat from * to * to the end of the row and end with a single crochet.
2. This trim is suitable for the edges of children's clothing.
The hook is an indispensable assistant for every needlewoman. Using this simple tool, you can transform boring things or create new, unique pieces of clothing. Crochet neckline is especially in demand today. We bring to your attention schemes of such works.
The simplest single crochet and with it, as well as air loops that form neat pico knots - all these tricks are available even to a novice master. Using them, you can strengthen the stretched or unfinished neck of any knitted product. And if there is an overcast, this finishing technique is quite applicable for knitwear. So let's get started!
How to finish the finished product with a hook
How to crochet a neck? The answer to this question depends on the degree of your experience and ability to handle a needlework tool. For beginner craftsmen simple option the edge will be tied with simple single crochets.
To make your work as accurate as possible, you need to practice using thick threads - to simplify the task. To begin with, it is enough to dial a chain of 10-20 loops, and then knit several rows with single crochets. Move from right to left. Having started work, instead of the first double crochet, we knit an air loop - and so on for each row.
The hook is threaded under the upper bow of the 3rd air loop, grabs the thread and pulls it out. You get 2 loops that should be knitted. After 1 loop has formed on the hook, we thread it into the next bow - and so on until the end of the row. Having completed the row, we unfold the work and repeat everything from the beginning. To perform such work as a simple crochet neckline, schemes are practically not needed, the slightest needlework experience is enough.
As a result, you should get a smooth, beautiful canvas.
After completing the sample, having decided on the width of the “edging” of the neck you need, you can start tying the finished product. Gently threading the hook in the shoulder seam, pry the thread with it, pull it through the knitted fabric. Fasten the tip from the wrong side.
After that, carefully pry off the threads that run along the edge of the neck of the product, using them as air loops in the sample. Move in a circle, evenly spaced single crochets along the entire edge of the product. This is how the neck is crocheted. If desired, you can make armholes in the same way.
crayfish step
This option for finishing the edge of the finished product is one of the most favorite among craftswomen. It combines the simplicity of execution and the effectiveness of the result.
To work, you need a thread whose length is 10 times the diameter of the neck. Approximately 15 extra centimeters are left for embedding the edge. The main feature of this mating is the direction of work: they start on the left and move to the right.
First, fasten the thread at the shoulder seam, make an air lift loop. Insert your hook under the upper arm of the loops along the edge of the neckline from front to back. Grab the thread you are using and pull it out.
The resulting 2 loops must be knitted together. When 1 loop remains on the hook, repeat the described process from the beginning - and so on until the end of the neck.
There are several options for performing the crayfish step.
Using a combination of single crochet and pico
To obtain a more complex and beautiful finish of the finished product, you can add a simple knitting with an original element - pico, representing 3 air loops connected by a single crochet (knitted into the first air loop). Alternating 2-3-4 columns and such “knots”, you will get a simple and at the same time interesting pattern!
You can also alternately knit 2 double crochets and 2 air loops. Alternate them throughout the entire 1st row. Then expand the job. In the second row, place the columns under the arches formed by the air loops. The final stage is knitting single crochets into arches, between which there are pico knots.
One more no less interesting option- pico "coins". To create them, you need to knit 3 air loops, then alternately knit 2 columns with 1 crochet into the first loop of the resulting chain. Completion - 3 more air loops. They are fixed with a connecting loop at the base (“knitted” at the beginning of the double crochet). Such a crochet neckline, the patterns of which are presented below, will surely please you!
shells
Knitting a row of b / n columns, alternate them with air loops (1-2 loops in 3-4 columns). In the second row, several double crochets can be knitted into these "holes". You will get original "fan"-shells.
Any knitted product has a complete look if its edges are decorated with a strapping that matches the style. It can both decorate the product and spoil it, so the choice of strapping must be taken very seriously.
The hook is an indispensable tool for finishing the edge of an already knitted product. It can be either a dress, or a pullover, or a napkin or tablecloth.

Crochet the edge
There are a great many schemes that can be used for strapping; with their help, you can not only decorate an already finished product or parts of it, but also hide minor oversights made during.
With the help of interesting crochet patterns, you can decorate the edges of collars and cuffs, tie a neck or armhole.
How to tie the edge of the product
If you have recently become addicted, then you must be wondering how to beautifully and correctly decorate the edge of a knitted product with a hook. The most popular patterns used for this are the step step, pico technique and various openwork patterns. Thanks to them, the product will look elegant and unique, and most importantly - it will be complete. Beginners will be interested to see the knitting lessons of the border.
The binding is of two types:
- directly on the product itself, which eliminates its incorrect attachment;
- knitting a pattern in the form of a border or ruffle, in order to subsequently stitch it to the product.
Using this finish, you can:
- give the product a new look;
- keep the shape of the product, which was in the sock and stretched a little;
- decorate a nondescript thing that is dear to you;
- hide the flaws made during knitting.
Pattern "crawl step"
It is used for the edge of the product to give it shape. Knitting is very simple, it uses only single crochets, which are known even to novice needlewomen. To complete the pattern, you need to crochet the finished product or its parts, using only single crochets. To complete the second row, the same single crochets will be used, only the row will not knit in the same way as always - from right to left, but vice versa, from left to right. Hence the name of the pattern -.
Having finished the first row, we begin the second. The hook must be inserted into the loop that is already on the hook, pull out the air loop, and then knit the two resulting loops together with a single crochet. So you need to knit the second row of this pattern.
Most often, this pattern is used for tying children's products so that they stretch less.
pico technique
Needlewomen who have been knitting for a long time can say that this technique is also used for tying the edges of not only clothes but also shoes. Due to its small size and the use of air loops for knitting, the edge looks beautiful and airy.
There may be not only the name pico, but also pique. Knitting is crocheted a chain of air loops that close into a ring. Such a pattern, in the form of a border, is of two types:
- Classic, this is when three air loops are knitted, and the initial one from which they were knitted is used to secure them. A yarn is made from it, and then two loops are knitted together.
- The shamrock is the same classic version, only three such rings are knitted, consisting of three air loops. Each chain is fixed, and after the third chain, with the help of a connecting column, everything is knitted together.
Such a binding is used for the edge of the sleeve, beret, and even napkins. The number of air loops will depend on the thickness of the thread. More details about this information can be heard in the knitting lesson.
Arched binding from air loops
For it apply single crochets and air loops. The pattern begins with a row of single crochets. The second row and all subsequent ones are knitted the same way. If you need a delicate, beautiful arch to decorate the edge, then you need to knit like this: a chain of five air loops is knitted, then, using a connecting post, it is attached through three columns to the fourth, previous row. And so on, until the end of the row.
Such binding is most often found on scarves, stoles, shawls and napkins. After knitting the last row of strapping, you can decorate the listed products with tassels.
openwork edge
To obtain such an edge, it will take more time and perseverance. There are many schemes of openwork patterns, but you need to choose only the one that will be exactly match the style and purpose of the product. If you are new to this business, then choose a simpler scheme so that a complex pattern does not torture you.
Let's take a closer look at one knitted pattern, which can be knitted as a separate element, or they can be tied to the finished edge of the product, without subsequent hemming. If the strapping goes as an independent part, then knitting begins with air loops (we conduct experiments on samples). A chain of 25 loops is knitted. The second row begins with the fifth air loop from the hook.
- row. Single crochets are knitted along the edge of the desired product or on a sample.
- row. One single crochet, four air loops that need to be fastened with a connecting loop in the third column (of the previous row). 2 double crochets, 2 double crochets and again 2 double crochets in the same loop as the previous two. Four air loops follow, fixed with a connecting loop in the third single crochet of the previous row. Thus, we knit to the end of the row, if this is a sample, or we tie the edges of the product. Beautiful, airy arches are obtained.
Beginning craftswomen need to take on simple openwork patterns, and only then, when everything turns out simply and quickly, move on to more complex ones. Crocheting the edge completes the finished product.
On the Internet, you can find many border patterns with descriptions, and even ready-made master classes, video tutorials that will help you master the crochet technique without any courses.
Crochet neckline: patterns
- arched strapping of air loops;
- step or pico, and at the end - a lush fringe;
- openwork border.
Sweater neck tie
Beginning craftswomen should try this finishing method. On the wrong side of the finished product, along the edge of the neck, a chain stitch is crocheted and fixed. The product turns to the front side, and with the help of the existing loops on the neck, you can knit any openwork pattern that suits your product.
Border for tablecloth or napkin
The edge of these delicate products can be decorated with pretty scallops. Here's how they knit:
- first row - single crochet;
- the second row is one single crochet, two loops of the previous row are skipped, and 4 double crochets fit into the third. Between them there should be 2 air loops. Next, again skip 2 loops of the previous row and 4 double crochets in the third loop, not forgetting to knit 2 air loops between them. So we knit to the end of the row. The border is beautiful and lush.
Conclusion
For any strapping there must be a diagram with a description. If you take your time and understand the notation, then the work will not seem very difficult. You need to start work only with easy schemes, over time moving on to more complex ones.
A do-it-yourself knitted product is always more expensive than a purchased item. And if the model turned out to be unique, with the help of crocheting the edge, then such a product is doubly valuable.
Knitted products will have a finished look and look even more beautiful if its edges are decorated with decorative trim. Crochet edging is used for beautiful design necklines, armholes, collars, sides of jackets, cuffs, bottom of the product. In order to strengthen and weight ruffles and frills, edge trim is also used. In this article, to help knitters, we have selected border design schemes for various kinds of products.

We are trying to use the Crayfish step in crocheting the edge
The most popular of the strappings is considered to be the "crawler step" scheme. In the photo below you can see what the edge of the product looks like, decorated with this strapping.
This crocheting of the edge of the product is done from left to right. Insert the hook into the extreme loop of the previous row, grab new thread and pull out the loop. Next, we knit 1 lifting air loop. Then we insert the hook into the loop to the right of it, grab the thread and pull up a new loop. Now there are 2 loops on the hook, as if twisted together. Grab the thread again and knit these two loops together. Then we repeat the same steps again. More details in the video tutorial.
In boutiques, we are so often impressed by lace dresses made of thin threads in shop windows! But few people know that such dresses, and even better, are crocheted in one or two evenings, even by an inexperienced craftswoman!
