Assembling The Mesh Bow

Set your crochet piece flat. Since this particular bow has no specific “wrong side,” you don’t need to worry about which side faces up.

Bring the two ends of the bow piece to meet in the center. Carefully match the seam sections (where you had the slip stitches) at the back of the bow.

Take a long piece of yarn. Wrap the yarn tightly at the center of the bow.

Continue wrapping until you are happy with the width of the center section. A wider, more wrapped center will give the bow a nice, three-dimensional look.

Once you are satisfied with the center, cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail from the front to the back of the bow, weaving it securely under the wrapped center yarn on the back side.

Your crochet bow is now complete and ready!
