Holes are evenly punched around the outer edge of the Blanket. Single crochet stitches are worked in each hole, and the rest of the border is worked outward from there. When changing colors, work up to the final pull-through of the current row in the current color, switching to the new color to finish the stitch. This edging is easily adaptable to any size piece of fleece.
