Thank you for the wonderful instructions.
Have you, by chance, worked the “Sunset Ruana” pattern in the winter 2009 Interweave Crochet magazine? The instructions in the magazine totally baffle me.
Thank you
Glenda
thank you
could you show how to decrease on each of the three different stitches so the article tapers…..
a big sweater…i meant…or like a big throw…?
how can you do a bit sweater with the Tunisian Knit? would it hold all those threads in the hook??? or what do you do?? I don’t know if i explain myself…
My guess would be to just end the last row like you would a crocheted piece. I haven’t tried it tunisian crochet (yet), so it’s just a thought.
i think you would say chain six (or how ever many you want) and then cast on through the ribs in the back like she does and then go on from there…. let me know if it works..
i learned how to crochet with a book called i taught myself how to crochet from walmart.. it was very helpfull…
How would you bind off for Tunisian stitched project?
how would you tunisian crochet in a circle?
Thanks. The sound is just not loud on this video…. or should I say, it’s not as loud as the others I had been watching.
But thank you SO MUCH for telling me what is being said. I can print that out and read, read, read and try it over again
When I show the second row, when moving forward to pick up loops again, I just mention that the loop left on the hook at the end is always the 1st stitch of the new row, which is why you don’t work into the right edge.
Hope that helps!
I then show you the whole swatch, the first few rows are Tunisian Simple, then Tunisian Purl, then Tunisian Knit. Flipping it over you can see and feel the dense area.
I also mention that I prefer Tunisian KNit for hats, bags, et cetera because it’s dense and nothing will easy poke through the stitches.
To work back, yarn over and pull through 1 (left edge stitch), then yarn over and pull through 2 the rest of the way.
It’s easier to keep your finger behind the stitch you’re working so that you can feel where the hook is going.
Repeat placing the hook behind the vertical bar, push it through, yarn over and pull through, always leaving the loop on the hook.
Tunisian is the densest of the Tunisian stitches, that I’ve found.
In the last stitch, work into the 2 side loops to make an even side.
Hi Apryl! You’ll want to make sure your computer’s sound is turned up if you’re having difficulty. I’m able to hear the video as expected.
Here is a breakdown of what I’ve said in the video:
Insert your hook behind 1st vertical thread and angle it to the back, push all the way through. Yarn over and pull through.
then I show you the vertical loop and that you’re pushing back through the space between stitches.
Is it just me, or is the voice VERY soft? I can see what is going on, but since I’m relying on YouTube for all my C/K lesssons, I really would like to hear the crafter.
I had always wondered if there was a way to make crochet look like knitting and now I know there is. I also didn’t know there were other ways to do the tunisian crochet stitch. I have learned so much more about knitting and crocheting from youtube than I ever did in any books. Thanks for posting this. Your videos are very helpful.
This is excellent. I do how to tunisian crochet but never learned how to do the knit and purl. Can’t wait to try. Nice video.
This stitch is complete revelation to me. I can’t believe there is a type of crochet that resembles knitting so much. Your tutorial is super-clear too!
it”s very interesting , thanks
はじめまして わたしもはじめました＾－＾
Thank you. I think knitting looks better then crochet but working with two needles is difficult for me. Do you have a video on making a scarf using tunisian crochet.
I’ve always wanted to learn how to start the stitch. Can you make a video like this? Great vid
what type of hook u using?
Size
Perfect! thank youy so much :]
Thank you so much. Seeing this stitch actually worked makes so much more sense than the photo/text tutorial I was trying to use.
