Ghost Outline:
The ghost outline is made in any of the solid triangle shaped sections of the edging, worked in the remaining loops of those rows. Holding the edging upside-down, with the right side of the piece facing you, attach white in the remaining loop above the first double crochet of the first 3-dc group (just below the single crochet row that was row 1 of the edging). As you make the ghost outline, turn the edging in any way that makes it comfortable for you to work in the remaining loops.
