Making Motifs

CROCHETING IN THE ROUND & JOINING MOTIFS

Motifs are worked in rounds from the center outward, with evenly spaced increases worked on every round. An important part of crocheting motifs is the starting point, and techniques for beginning a motif are introduced in this chapter. By beginning with the most appropriate technique for your motif, it will be easier to obtain the desired finished piece.

Motifs with corners start the same way as round pieces; only the placement of the increases on each round will vary, with the increases placed at or near each corner.

Joining finished motifs together can be accomplished in a number of ways. There are joining techniques at the end of the chapter, as well as instructions for working a button loop. Choose the appropriate technique that best suits the overall design you are creating.
