Crochet Flower Edging
I have been looking for an edging to add to my Tunisian Roses Afghan. I found a PIN of a Crochet Flower Edging that I thought would be perfect for my afghan. The tutorial is in another language, google translate doesn’t help much and the pictures were not in order. This is what I figured out for this stitch and will be using for my afghan.

Aaahhh, I have that pattern too was wondering how I was going to do it, but seems like u did it for us! Thank u so much
Please share pictures, I’d love to see what you hook up. 🙂
Thank you!! Thank you!! I had fallen in love with the pattern you were speaking of at the beginning and in the midst of trying to decipher it. My Tunisian baby blanket will now have a beautiful edge! Yay!
😀
Wow! Thanks so much for your generous patterns gift! You are so creative – and prolific! I can’t wait to start something; I’m especially interested in the beautiful tulips since my ancestors are all Dutch. Thanks again.
Thank you. Would love to see what you make ☺️
Thanks for the link to written directions – I don’t do well with videos.
I am wanting to try this on a baby blanket. The pattern I used was a double crochet pattern. How do I incorporate your tulips into my blanket considering it is double crochet stitch and not a v stitch?
You’d have to work an edging around your work. Off hand I believe it’s worked in multiples of 3.
I’m have a v stitch blanket I made but there is no spaces between each v stitch is it still multiples of 3
The edging is worked in multiples of 3 so that will work. 🙂
Beautiful! I’ll have to watch the video several times before I feel comfortable trying to stitch this as a sample. It really helps to see this pattern worked to fully understand its construction!
Thank you so much! I have been looking for a unique edging to put on a shawl that I am making for my daughter. This is PERFECT! Thank you so much for sharing! I really, really appreciate it.
You’re welcome 😊 would love to see what you hook up
Please tell me if this can work as a boarder for a corner to corner blanket all around the entire blankwt? Please PLEASE help.
