Finishing Your Tapestry:
- Block your work: Gently block your tapestry by pinning it to a flat surface and lightly steaming it (avoid direct contact with the iron). This will help the stitches even out and the edges to lie flat.
- Optional Edging: You can add a border of single crochet around the edges using either Color A or Color B for a more finished look.
- Hanging:
- You can simply hang the tapestry using small clips or by sewing loops onto the top corners and threading a piece of yarn or string through them.
- Alternatively, you can attach it to a small dowel rod or frame for a more polished display.
We hope you enjoy creating this special “MUM” tapestry! It’s a wonderful way to show your love and appreciation this Mother’s Day with a personal, handmade touch. Happy crocheting!
