Pom Pom Border – Pattern Description


This Pom Pom Border is both decorative and easy to crochet and will enhance the look of any crochet piece made with plain or flat stitches.

How do you crochet a Pom Pom Border? The Pom Pom Border is constructed with two bobble stitches joined together with a slip stitch, on top of a chain 3 base.

I added an extra pom pom in the corners to round up the border and make it look seamless. If you are crocheting it on a straight edge, leave the corner pom pom out.

It works great for any kind of edge, from square and rectangle projects such as blankets and afghans to triangle edges such as shawls or straight edges such as scarves. You can even crochet it on a round edge such as a dress.

I recommend you crochet a base row on your edge before starting the border. Use any plain stitch for your base row, I always make a single crochet row around my blankets before starting on any border.

If you are making this border for a blanket, check out my base row tutorial for blankets with double crochet rows or base row tutorial for blankets with treble rows to give you an idea of how a base row is made based on the different types of stitches your blanket rows are made with.

Step 9: Repeat steps 5 – 8 until you reach the next corner. Your last pom pom must end in the corner stitch. If you don’t have enough stitches to sk2, then just skip 1. If you have too many, then skip 3. It will not make a massive difference in the overall look of the border. The important thing is that you must end in the corner stitch.
