Learn Tunisian Crochet
What is Tunisian Crochet? Tunisian is crochet that gives an effect that is more like knitting. Tunisian crochet or Afghan crochet uses a different crochet hook to traditional crochet.
A Tunisian crochet hook (also known as an Afghan hook) is longer and has a stopper at the handle end. With Tunisian crochet your crocheted chains remain on this elongated hook similar
to casting on in knitting. To see how to work with a Tunisian crochet hook please follow my video tutorials below.
I have put together a series of Tunisian crochet stitch tutorials where I show you a variety of Tunisian crochet techniques so you can learn how to do Tunisian or Afghan crochet. Let's start with the basics!
