This is the final clue for your Mystery Afghan! We’ll be doing a border around the afghan.
There are still a few weeks left in the KAL/CAL, so stick around after you finish for contests and more!
To make the border, you’ll use your Main Color (MC). If you prefer using a different color, make sure you have about three-quarters of a ball left.
Pattern
- DOWNLOAD CLUE 8

Skills You’ll Learn
- Single Crochet – a basic tutorial on the single crochet stitch.
- Single Crochet Edging – this video deals specifically with working an edging using single crochet. Edgings need to be handled differently when you have corners to contend with. As you’ll learn in the video, you’ll handle the ‘peaks and valleys’ of your afghan’s edge differently than you will a straight edge.
Tips:
- Make sure you have one-half to three-quarters of a ball or more of the appropriate color yarn before starting your edging.
