Tunisian Crochet Ideas Free Patterns

Tunisian crochet is an unusual technique that uses special crochet hook with elongated end. I know many crocheters that were intimidated by it and hesitant to try, but once they created their first design in this technique, they have fallen in love with it. Today’s collection of Tunisian Crochet Ideas was created to give you a starting point – whether you are just thinking about learning it, or have tried a couple of projects and want to learn more. This technique is great for making home accessories, because it creates sturdy, dense fabric which is perfect for potholders or placemats. The stitches look a lot like weaving, so it’s also great for blankets or bags. You will find a lot of inspiration in today’s collection, I am sure. Don’t wait, explore!
