Tunisian Crochet - BarbaraP



Learn this fun crochet technique with a unique looking fabric that can be used for all sorts of projects. We will start with a simple project, move to using 2 colors in unique ways, and learn more advanced techniques like Tunisian short rows and Tunisian lace. We will cover all the basics and special tips in this class to ensure even and smooth edges. We will cover tips on reading Tunisian crochet patterns and diagrams.  Handouts will be provided, but feel free to bring your own patterns for help getting started on your own project by the end of the class. We will first learn the rules for Tunisian crochet, and then learn how to break them!  While Tunisian crochet makes a denser fabric, we break the rules to make lighter weight fabrics for all sorts of useful items, even garments.
Please note, your Tunisian crochet hook does not have to be a 14" length for this class. A shorter Tunisian hook (8-9 inches) works best or a Tunisian hook with a cable, which provides much more flexibility for future projects.
