Romanian cord (also known as lace cord) crochet is used in Irish and Romanian lace. It is an easy flat crochet cord. Easy to make just remembering two steps – twisting clockwise and put crochet hook in the two side loops (unusual for regular crochet).
But you can find an application in many other things, like straps for:
- tops;
- dresses;
- elegant belts (not only for dress, but as a bag strap too).
I am showing you how to make a Romanian cord after I finished half circle crochet bag free pattern. I used the cord for straps. The cord is sturdy and will not stretch. It is a good option when you can’t buy manufactured belts to add to your bag.
