Manage Tunisian edges and curl
Check both edge insertions and sample curl after finishing. Hook size, stitch structure and a planned border can affect behavior, but blocking alone may not remove structural curl.

Before you start
Confirm whether the instructions use US or UK terms. On a smooth-yarn sample, mark the first and last stitch and note whether the turning chain counts.
Try this example
Make a 15-row strip, finish it and let it rest unpinned. Add the proposed border to half the sample and compare its relaxed shape with the untreated half.
Check your result
- Count stitch tops separately from chain spaces and compare successive row or round totals. Lay the sample down without stretching it to inspect the shape.
- A symbol or familiar stitch name does not supply a complete construction. Use the project’s own counts, turning rules and joining instructions.
