Hey friends! I have been working on writing up the first how-to blog post for Tunisian crochet. I plan on posting next week! It won’t just be one post though. I’ll start with the basic stitch then show you all the other fun ones you can do.
If you want to practice along, all you need is some yarn and a Tunisian crochet hook (also called an afghan hook). I will be using the J-10 (6mm) hook and some acrylic yarn. As far as yarn, you can use whatever you want as long as it works with your hook.
You’ll learn…
Basic Tunisian Crochet
Tunisian Crossed Stich
Tunisian Knit
Tunisian Bias Stitch
Tunisian Purl
Tunisian Rib
Tunisian Lace
Tunisian Honeycomb
Tunisian Popcorn
Of course I won’t post all of these next week. It will be stretched out into a couple weeks. I’m excited to share how fun and easy Tunisian crochet can be!
So does this sound like something you’re interesting in learning? I hope so!
Have a great weekend everyone
Oh and happy I Love Yarn Day!

ReplyDeleteI just discovered your tutorial today via Pinterest (November 14, 2012). I've never been able to get the hang of crochet, but I tried the basic stitch and had myself a 6x6 kitchen scrubby in no time!I plan to try the crossed stitch next. Could these be used for flowers and beanies?
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to find your site!! My DD wants to learn how to Tunisian Crochet. Your tutorials are the best I have found so far. But I was wondering where to find them all. I have found the basic, cross stitch, and the bias.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your talent with us.
Hi I enjoyed your site very much. I learned Tunisian stitch from your site only. Please I need a help here. My Tunisian crochet is curving. Why it happens? How can I rectify it?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your help.
