The term "bind off" is used where a pattern requires that an item being crocheted is shaped in a certain area, such as an armhole. When your crochet pattern asks you to "bind off", here is what is expected of your crocheting.
Steps
-
Leave several stitches unworked at one end or both ends of a row.
-
Slip stitch across the top of the designated number of stitches.
-
Continue making a row of stitches according to the pattern instructions. Stop the right number of stitches from the opposite side (this will depend on the design).
-
Start the next row of stitches from this point.
