Question
Carol
For those of you who have edged flannel baby blankets (AKA "receiving blankets"): The blanket I bought is already serged/hemmed around the edge. (Hope that's the right terminology; I am not much of a seamstress.) My question is: Must I punch holes in the fabric to crochet the edging? Or can I just crochet into the hem stitching?
I haven't tried either way yet, because I don't want to ruin the blanket. (I haven't done anything like this since I was a child. I learned to crochet back in the Dark Ages by making edgings on my mom's linen table napkins. I didn't like it much and kinda dread doing it again, so if crocheting into the hemstitch would be stable enough for the edging, I'll try that. It might be easier than poking holes.)
TIA.
