Invisible Crochet Bind-Off

Setting up for our bind off.

Here’s where we’re starting: a nice piece of UK dc/US sc on the round.

This technique works best on the round, as all the V’s on your working edge are facing the same direction.

To being your bind off, cut yarn, then increase the size of the loop on your hook until the end pops through and the loop is gone.

p-u-u-u-u-ll!
there we go!

Thread the end onto a bodkin or a blunt-ended needle.

Then, sew underneath the two “arms” of the V on top of the next stitch along. Be sure that only those two strands of yarn are isolated. The rest of the stitch is to be left untouched.

Pull bodkin through fabric, and then tighten strand of yarn so it matches the tension of the stitches around it.

Then, take tip of bodkin, and press it the centre of the last stitch you crocheted. It will be the same spot that the strand you’re working with is sprouting out of. Again, pull the strand tighter

Just right!

Weave your end into the fabric a little bit to secure your end, and there you have it!
Your completely invisible bind off!
