APR24: Tunisian Crochet 101 - May 11, 2024 11:30 am
Tunisian crochet or afghan crochet makes a dense and squishy fabric with beautiful texture. It is often described as a combination of traditional crochet and knitting and, for some, easier to learn than either of those crafts. In this class you will learn how to cast on and work basic stitches all while creating a dish/wash cloth. The basic tunisian simple stitch creates a fabric that looks woven, making it perfect for this application. The grid-like appearance lends itself nicely to cross stich embellishments.
