This is called Afghan stitch or cro knit that allows you to do knit patterns

I'm just dipping my toe into Tunisian crochet because I want to make a warm sweater with no big holes. This was a lot of good information for me. Currently I'm struggling with the furthest right loop being too loose on all rows. I try so hard to keep that tight, but it ends up being loose. That's my only issue right now. Just that one loop on every row lol. But I'll keep trying!

How do you steam block it ?

I have trouble with the cords

What is your recommendation for hooks to make a wide afghan

Great information! I really appreciate it, and also that you actually look at “us” with only quick checks of yourself. It boosts your connection with your audience. Thank you!

I’m interested to have info on the brown/greenwhite/sweater 2nd version!

What yarn did you use for the speckled Tunisian piece you showed us in your video?

Last year I decided to try Tunisian crochet and attempted making a large throw blanket. I was given an aluminum Tunisian hook (cable attached) but because it was was a size 'G' I needed something larger. I ordered a 'K' bamboo hook. Not good! The wood splintered and would snag my yarn. Returned it but had to wait for its replacement. In the meantime, I ordered a plastic hook. Why? I don't like plastic hooks! They feel awful. My bamboo replacement arrived only to break where it joined the cable. Still determined, I tried to find an aluminum hook like the one that was given to me. How hard would that be since I already knew it existed? Well, I couldn't find it in stores nor online. Knowing it was made by Boye and I like Boye aluminum hooks, I emailed them a picture along with a "Where can I buy?" request. Sadly, their reply stated it no longer exist. Although I ordered another bamboo hook (different brand), I've since moved on to other projects and will eventually return to this WIP. I enjoyed the process of Tunisian crochet. It provided a bit of a challenge in that it combines crocheting and knitting. I enjoyed your video and hearing about your learning adventure.

How do you crochet the corners???

I have tried Tunisian Crochet before. I made a cotton bath mat, but didn't pursue it until i watched one of TL Yarns Toni Lipsey's wonderful videos. She inspired me to try making sweaters, and now i am working on the fifth sweater and using Tunisian crochet stitches. So far the honey 🍯 comb stitch is my favorite ❤ Thank you for sharing your experience with this beautiful craft with us❤😊

The ridiculously overpriced Lantern Moon hooks and needles break easily

I never knew how to do this so thank you -😊

I never knew how to do this and make it stay so you , thank you -.😊

Sorry to say this but I looked through your videos, and I haven’t seen you crochet anything!!!....just you in full camera BlaH Blah ...😂😂😂😂😂cluck bait

thank you!!! need a blanket for an upcoming trip - don’t want to take one from home. was able to get the blade, yarn, and 2 yards of fleece for $14 instead of paying $30 for one online

I didn't even know there was such a thing as perforating rotary blade - don't think I've seen one... Thank you!

I suggest that, if you have never learned any form of the yarn arts, to begin with crochet, as it will teach you to hold the yarn with your left hand, which will be of great help for holding the yarn while learning to knit continental style, then learn Tunisian crochet, as it will be an absolute breeze to learn, and you will already be very familiar with yarn tension, holding and manipulating the yarn, and reading patterns. Also, take the previous advice that others have offered about keeping your stitches LOOSE, because Tunisian crochet stitches create a lot of fabric tension, which is the cause of the curling fabric, so the loose stitches will eliminate the unnecessary tension and pain in the hands of beginners from trying to pull the hook through loops that were too tightly formed. I just learned the basics, as well as several Tunisian stitches in just a few minutes prior to watching this video, which was quite easy for me, after years of crochet and knitting experience, because I was already aware of the potential problems. Of course, you can learn these skills in any order that you wish, but, if you are starting with no experience at all but wish to learn crochet, knit and Tunisian crochet anyway, I know that learning them in this order will serve you very well!

😂 the spreadsheet 😂 sounds like something I would do. Thanks so much for the thoughtful video. I found it very informative and my brain was able to connect, as your way of thinking and learning is similar to mine.

To keep your Tunisian crochet from curling if you make the 1st and last stitch (a single crochet , 1/2 double, or double ) whatever stitch you are using , your Tunisian crochet will not curl! 💕🧶 Hope this helps.

I tried Tunisian in the round on a sweater and I loved it.

so you DON'T plan on making anything larger than sample squares, right..?? if you are going to dive into tunisian crochet then you WILL need those hooks eventually..if you don't plan to go any further with it, then yes, they were a waste..

The Lantern Moon Set is produced by Knitpro ... They have the 'Ginger' Line aswell. I bought the Ginger Tunisian Crochet set and completed it with that LM swivel cords and wooden endpieces. So i have all hooksizes and the premier cords.

I have always hated the starting row. I can never get my chains even so my first row drives me nuts.

Many projects, once you get past doing those where gauge may not be important:coasters/dishtowels/blankets and afghans/shawls, etc., you will need a 7mm hook. Why a set like Lantern Moon, and many other $100+ sets don't have this, is beyond me, and is what kept me from purchasing. My Leeyien set, made by the same folk who do the Denise hooks Toni uses, but half the cost, have many more hook sizes. I use it a lot more than my KnitPicks Bamboo set- swivel hooks, by the way and cheaper than Lantern Moon,PLUS too many folk on a Tunisian group have posted broken LM hooks, and my bamboo have been through many projects with zero issues, or my Lykke set, which also have swivel cables. Neither of those last two have 7mm hooks, and if a patterrn for a top, cardigan or other gauge-important item calls for a 7mm, well, most of the big name hook sets are sadly lacking.

I knit, crochet and Tunisian crochet and it is slower than traditional crochet stitch for stitch but the payoff is worth it. I would put it somewhere between knitting and crochet in terms of time and it resembles knitting on the front. Playing with colour changes after every forward pass gives interesting results too, playing with colour on Tunisian is a good way to make up scrap blankets too.

This is the coolest and most original idea I have seen in a long time!!!

Hooks look lovely. How long is each hook please?

Thank you for this interesting video on Tunisian crochet. I taught myself this from other UA-cam videos and have successfully made blankets. However I have been frustrated in finding simple children’s sweater patterns. Also I wouldn’t know the language of making a garment in Tunisian crochet -there must be increases and decreases etc! If you have any suggestions I would be very appreciative.

Still new at this. I can't seem to get a tight stitch. With the y/o it tends to create very loosely. Also with the Tunisian hook I found if I push the bead through a loose weave basket I have sitting next to me, it keeps it from flopping around and keeps it stationary. I can post a pic. if needed.

Once you go Tunisian you never go back. I think it’s prettier and much easier on the hands.

Love, love, love that aqua super-wash wool? What is the brand and color?

28:20 I just picked up a crochet hook two weeks ago and have just been practicing little coasters with the simple stitch crochet but I loved the look of the Tunisian simple stitch. I bought my yarn yesterday, and I picked up the Tunisian crocheting so easily, and it feels so natural to me, I I think regular crocheting will have to be put on the back burner, this is just a beautiful look and feel.

You are a nice teacher

Thank-you for the video, I'm just learning this Tunisian crochet, I am loving it, I have spun my own wool and wondered what to do with this beautiful wool I have so I've started my scarf and I'm loving the texture x

I just learned how to Tunisian crochet yesterday. Today I'm working on a C2C reversible pattern. I've crocheted for over 50 years, but never tried Tunisan crochet. I love it! 😊

I’ve just started working Tunisian crochet. I’m incorporating it into a jumper I’m making for a friend. My main problem is that if I drop a stitch on the return pass I can’t work out how to pick it up and have to restart the whole row.

That's why I keep my favorite Tunisian video on speed-dial😂😂❤❤

This is great thank you. Is this something that one could add to an existing kitted piece - I missed two rows of purl stitches on the sleeve of a sweater I knitted and would like to fake in two purl rows where the seam is that meets the shoulder.

Great video! I love Tunisian crochet! I learned Tunisian crochet in a craftsy class, but my biggest learning growth came when i learned a shawl pattern. My favorite, mind-blowing, and addictive project was the Venus shawl by Aoibhe Ni. I learned how versatile the Tunisian crochet is and how it can be made with a regular straight crochet hook. I have made at least 5 of the Venus shawl. Google Venus shawl by Aoibhe Ni and see what I mean. I'm excited to keep learning Tunisian and expanding my skills. I bought an Addi interchangeable Tunisian crochet hook set, but for most patterns I make now, I just need the hook. I don't like the cable on the Addi set, but I love the smoothness of their hooks. I will take a look at the set you showed and add it to my wishlist.

I LOVE me some Toni Linsey .

In all fairness, you purchased a crochet hook that is used for making blankets or Afghans and holding 100 plus stitches. It’s also-called an Afghan hook.

I have large hands. Does anyone have suggestions for a longer interchangable hook set?

I love Tunisian crochet, I tried learning to knit, but the person teaching me was right-handed, and I'm left-handed, it frustrated me and I gave up, but about 6-7 years ago I came across Tunisian crochet hooks, I went to UA-cam to look it up, I got myself the hooks from aliexpress, ND I fell in love with it, it's knitting on a crochet hook.

I'm old fashioned when it comes to the hooks I use. I love the long straight, not interchangeable Tunisian crochet hooks. I like the stiffness the full distance of my project because it helps me to see if my tension is even. If all the loops on the hook are the same looseness, I know I'm not going wonky with my tension. The truth for me is that my yarns don't change that much in hook requirement. I don't buy full sets because I rarely use a lot of them. It turns out to be a waste of money. I have done full blankets on regular long Tunisian hooks and that stiff hook helps me to hold the weight of the blanket as it gets bigger and bigger. I only have two sizes of hooks too and it covers everything I've wanted to do so far. I don't do tons of Tunisian crochet, so perhaps for someone who does, they prefer the hooks you show in your video. I recognize that I could be an anomaly. 😂 I also found that the curling can work itself out with use of the product. I did a throw blanket for my first Tunisian project and without needing to block it, as it got bigger and I was manipulating more and more, it seemed like the curl worked itself out. I use this throw blanket all the time and I've washed it several times, and still there is no curl at all. I think the yarn just needs to kind of adjust itself with time and manipulation. I also believe that I loaded the loops with both top strands, which helps too. If you only use the back or the front loop, the curl will be more dramatic.

I discovered Tunisian crochet over 20years ago after being taught basic crochet as a child by my mother over 40years before that. Dozens of dollies, and grandmothers flower gardens, even filet stitch curtains have come from my simple hooks. I love Tunisian for large projects. I use my T crochet Rhuana (shawl) nearly every winter evening. It's warm and drapes cuddly. I've never tried a hook with a cord as I don't like the feel of corded knitting needles. I found designing clothing easier with T crochet than knitting, easier to judge the results of increases and decreases. Experiment! Try different hooks, yarns and patterns for different textures. You may have found your perfect craft.

Hello! Just found your channel today. I love your energy and bright personality. As a knitter who is still very much a crochet beginner, I really enjoy crochet channels.

Great video. I first tried it during the shutdown I think. Not only did I keep dropping stitches but I struggled with the last edge stitch. I had to put it to the side for over a year because I was so frustrated. Then I jumped back in and it went much better. I made a scrap blanket with Toni's join as you go video and so this just solidified my TSS before I moved on to other stitches. I'm definitely slower and my pinky tends to cramp up. I go up more like 2 whole sizes and it goes better for me. I love Toni's chill stitch because it doesn't curl, so give this a try if you haven't yet. I still like to stick to narrower projects because I still count from time to time and so wide projects take too long to count lol.

The description on Amazon says it has a 6.5 and then the 8.0 size hook, but the image shows a 7.0 instead of the 8.0 mm. Which did you get?
