    I discovered this technique just recently when I was making an envelope border for my mosaic crochet blanket. It does make a much better finish. The trouble I had was that my slip stitches were too tight and it was a pain to crochet into. I’m going to try it again but I will go up two hook sizes trying to get it loose enough especially since I’m a tight crocheter

    • @PlayHookywithMe
