Crochet Fishtail Braid Edge

How to Crochet the Fishtail Braid Border Edging

The crochet fishtail braid edge is a simple and elegant border edging for a blanket, scarf, shawl, hat, and bag. This stitch creates a thick, sturdy finish that looks much more complicated than it actually is. It is perfect for hiding uneven edges on your work and adds a beautiful braided texture that looks great on both sides.
