If you’re a fan of both knitting and crocheting, then Tunisian crochet is for you! Tunisian crochet is a needlework technique that borrows elements from both knitting and crocheting and is often referred to as “Afghan crochet” or “Afghan stitch”. A special hook called an Afghan hook is used for this method of crochet.
First Time Tunisian Crochet is an informative crochet booklet that teaches different stitches, from easy (Tunisian simple stitch) to intermediate (seed stitch, knit stitch, and purl stitch) to experienced (rib stitch, clusters stitch, cable stitch). The booklet includes five fun projects: a throw, bag, wristlet, blanket, and vest.
