    Your “left edge” trick is a nerve saver! I have struggled for years with that edge and a hint from you and a stitch marker are just what I needed. Thank you!

    I´ve known how to Tunisian crochet for over 40 years and never ever before seen so clear instructions of making neat edges. Thank you so much Toni. I love your tutorials!

    Me at 4:30 when you pull out the stitch marker: whaaaaat YES of *course*, 🤯
    And just like that the edges clicked for me. Excitedly casting a row right now. Yay!!

    Hi Toni, just started making a blanket using the Tunisian stitch and was thinking of frogging it all and making something else because I was having problems with the edges but then I seen your tutorial and now I can frog it at start fresh. Thank you!

    I've been using UA-cam tutorials for all sorts of crafts for YEARS. I found your videos tonight and you are the first and only person I've ever subscribed to because I want to be able to find you again.
    Your tutorials are fantastic, you explain so well, you're not too slow and you don't faff about, you just get straight into the tutorial.
    I need to go to sleep now but it's Friday tomorrow, I can't wait until my children go to bed, my husband goes to the pub, and your videos are going on the big TV!
    I'm so glad I found your channel.

    Such a great video. I have tried Tunisian crochet in the past but have been frustrated with the edges. My mom made a baby blanket years and years ago with the Tunisian stitch and now that she is gone I would like to make one in honor of her. It’s my goal in 2022 to do that. Blessings 💜💜

    forgot to say to you and fellow wool crafters have you seen the tension magnetic yarn holder omg its brilliant it will not release wool untill it feels your fist pull needing more wool and also if i catch it and it comes out and wraps it undoes its self i love it one less problem to worry about no more wool rolling around floor or in a basket love it

    Will keep trying maybe something to do with my tension. So glad I saw your channel.

    Toni, those stitch markers are also great for counting out long starting chains. I just insert one every 20 - 25 stitches until the desired length is achieved. Especially helpful if you anticipate interruptions, and as always, great for those beginning and ending stitches. Thanks for all your great advice. I might go back to Tunsian thanks to you!
