Easy Lacy Scalloped Edging
- Size 10 crochet cotton
- Size 9 hook- gauge isn't really important, so if you're more comfortable with a larger hook size use that.
- scissors
- a pair of "magic stretch gloves" - also works on socks.
Rnd 1= Attach thread to glove, chain 4, first chain counts as sc, sc just a bit away. chain 3, sc into glove, ch 3, sc into glove, repeat for a multiple of 5 loops counting the first one. In my example, I used 35 loops. For last loop, ch 3, slipstitch to join in first ch, slipstitch to top of chain 3.
Round 2= ch 1, *sc in loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, 5 dc in next loop*, repeat from ** around. On last 5 dc shell, slipstitch to join to the first sc, slipstitch to top of chain 3.
Round 3= ch 1 *sc in loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 1, dc in first dc, ch 1, dc in next dc, ch 1, dc in next dc, ch 1, dc in next dc, ch 1, dc in next dc, ch 1* repeat ** on last ch 1, slipstitch to join with first sc, slipstitch to top of ch 3. (5 dc per scallop)
Round 4= ch 1, *sc in loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 2, dc in first dc, ch 2, dc in next dc, ch 2, dc in next dc, ch 2, dc in next dc, ch 2, dc in next dc, ch 2* repeat around, slipstitch to join to first sc, slipstitch to top of ch 3. (5 dc per scallop)
Round 5= ch 1, *sc in loop, ch 1 dc in ch 2 sp, ch 1, dc in dc, ch 1 dc in ch 2 sp, ch 1, dc in dc, ch 1 dc in ch 2 sp, ch 1, dc in dc, ch 1 dc in ch 2 sp, ch 1, dc in dc, ch 1 dc in ch 2 sp, ch 1, dc in dc, ch 2* repeat around. Slipstitch to join last ch 2 to first sc, slipstitch into chain 1 space. (11 dc per scallop)
Round 6= ch 1, sc in ch 1 space, ch 3, *sc in next ch 1 space, ch 3* repeat around, slipstitch to join, break off thread, weave in ends.
Another Easy Glove Edging
- size 10 cotton
- size 9 hook or whatever your most comfortable with.
- 2 buttons
- tapestry needle that will fit the size 10 cotton and still go through the button holes. I've got no clue what size I used.
When you get to the last ch 3 , instead of chain 3, ch 1, dc in first ch.
Rnd 2-Now you are on top of the last loop you made, ch 1,(does not count as first sc) sc in that loop, ch 3, *sc in next loop, ch 3* repeat around until you reach the last loop, ch 1, dc in first sc.
Rnd 3- ch 1,(does not count as first sc) sc in the last loop of the previous row, ch 3, sc in the same loop, *ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 3, sc in same loop* repeat around. End by ch 1, dc in first sc (double the number of loops for the first round)
Rnd 4- ch 1,(does not count as first sc) sc, ch 3, *sc in next loop, ch 3* repeat around. This round you do end with a chain 3, slipstitch it to the first sc. Weave in ends.
That's the ruffle.
Now make the flowers. Oh so easy!
Rnd 1- Ch 6 tightly, slipstitch to form a ring.
Rnd 2- working into the ring, ch 1,(does not count as first sc) sc, ch 3, sc, ch 3, sc, ch 3, sc, ch 3, sc, ch 3, sc, ch 3, slipstitch to join to first sc. (6 ch 3 loops)
Rnd 3, ch 1(does not count as first sc), *sc in sc. Ch 2, 5 dc in ch 3 loop, ch 2,* repeat on each ch 3 loop, slipstitch to join. Weave in ends.
Thread the needle with a bit of the cotton, and attach the flower to the glove with the buttons.
Of course, like the first one, it would work with socks too, only you'd put the ruffle on the top of the sock and the flower a bit below it on the inside so when you folded down the cuff it would show.
