When crocheting a particular piece, it is important to consider all aspects of the piece from start to finish. Aside from the color of the yarn and the stitch you’re using, it is also important to consider the crochet edgings you would want on your piece.

There are actually a lot of to crochet edgings choose from. These are the following crochet edgings that are more popular: the Double Crochet edging, the Little Clovers edging, the Cluster edging, the Crab Stitch, the Filet Lily edging, the Fringed edging, the Filet Clover edging, the Star Filet edging and the Venetian Crochet edging.

No matter which edging you will use from the many crochet edgings you can choose from, just remember that these crochet edgings play an important role in your pieces’ total look. These crochet edgings give your pieces the finished look they would need. Take a blanket, for example. A plain blanket with no edging would look just like that: plain. But when you incorporate a crochet edging, the blanket would seem more complete, and even more ready for use! You can also use any crochet edging you want. And crochet edgings for blankets don’t have to be complicated. The single crochet stitch makes a fine edging for blankets. But if the more complicated crochet edgings are more up your alley, then by all means, go for them! One of the more complicated crochet edgings that you can use on blankets is the Double Crochet edging.

The Double Crochet edging is indeed one of the more popular crochet edgings used worldwide. You can use the Double Crochet edging for pieces on which you want the same crochet edging on both sides of them.

And the Double Crochet edging is very easy to do as well! Make sure that when you start making the edge for your piece, you pull all of your needles out. Pulling them out ensures a faster way of making any crochet edging, if not all crochet edgings, faster.

For your yarn, make sure that you use that which is of double strand. You can also use the triple strand for this, if you want. Whichever works for you is fine for this edging. Once you are done with your cast on, you can start knitting already. But if your yarn is not that elastic, take your time with the knitting manually. This helps improve the quality of your edging.

Crochet edgings may be viewed as just some sort of accessory to the piece. But it really encompasses the whole effect of your piece. For without crochet edgings, a piece would inevitably look too plain and too bare. So, choose your crochet edgings for your pieces well!
