Introduction to Tunisian Crochet
Tunisian crochet is starting to become popular. You can make projects that look woven. You can also create fabrics that look like knitting but made with a crochet hook! Tunisian crochet stitches are full of texture and oh so squishy. We are going to make a swatch to learn the simple stitch, Tunisian knit stitch, and Tunisian purl stitch. We will discuss Tunisian crochet basics that will prepare you for making beautiful projects and reading patterns. Must know basic crochet stitches; Make a slip knot, chain stitch, how to yarn over and single crochet. To prepare for this class, please enroll in Crochet 101 prior to taking Tunisian Crochet.
