Tried and Tested Tip Number 5 [Weaving in Crochet]


I thought I'd share another crochet tip with you this week. It's a small detail, but I think it can often be the smallest of details that makes or breaks any creation.

[And this is where I realise a color of wool other than grey would have made for much cheerier pictures!)

Here we have a basic circle I've crocheted, but I want to complete it so that it looks neat and finished...


Pass your needle under the next stitch along...


And it will look like this:


Go back down inside the stitch where you finished off...


And you will have a lovely completed circle like this:


Fasten off as you normally would...


And you're left with a perfect circle :)

Prefer a diagram? Try this...


Perfect for accessories such as C3PO's stomach or eyes on an owl hat.
