This edging is worked in one piece. No second row needed to achieve a deep and pretty edging which measures 1 ½” when worked in no. 20 thread. I used Finca Bollilos thread for the above and it worked out to be 1 ¼”. Please note - this pattern includes a join which I've called the continuous thread join. |
|
Skills required. Split rings, rings on chains and rings on split rings. The continuous thread join is shown and explained below. |

Making the CTJ - continuous thread join |
|
|
|
|
|
Using a hook, take Sh1 thread under and up through the last very small picot of side 1. Push Sh2 through the loop and gently tighten. |
Continue through all the picots on this side of the SR. |
|
Please note that the sections vary slightly as alternate ones have a ring on the chain to which following chains join. |
