CROCHET LACE EDGING : VERY EASY

This crochet edging is one of the easiest that I have come across. It is from a very old vintage pattern. I have modified the pattern slightly in that I worked a row of half double crochets (US) terminology, into the foundation chain.

The original pattern suggests working straight into the foundation chain.
You could do a row of single crochets instead of the half double crochets if you wish. the depth of the edging is 1" or 2.5cm approximately. I used a 1.75mm hook and size 10 crochet thread.
Instead of hand sewing the lace to your project you could machine sew it, the effect may not be exactly the same but I am sure it would still look great.
