i have learned to crochet, mainly so I can do Tunisian. I love it. I am just finishing a purse I designed and made with Tunsisan crochet. Great and fun technique.

You mentioned there are patterns for more Tunisian projects in Crochet Me magazine back issies. Is there an Index? Please say Yes and where. Linda

I love tunisian crochet! I only have a G hook to make it with. Have to get more hooks. Thanks for the inspiring nudge to do more tunisian!

Hi,

My friend just sent the link to CrochetMe and I love it. I have been using Tunisian stitches since I was a teen (40 years ago) when I picked up a simple book on needle crafts and it had instructions for an "afghan" stitch. Anyway, two wonderful books that have a variety of stitches in them are "Tunisian Crochet" by Sharon Silverman and Readers Digest "The Ultimate Sourcebook of Knitting and Crochet Stitches" . Another crochet method that uses tunisian is the double-ended hook, where you essential crochet in the round with no seams. Fun, fun!!

Forgive me but this is the first time I've seen instructions on the Tunisian Simple Stitch. If I am doing it right, it seens the same as the Afghan stitch where you work a complete row of stitches onto the extended hook then work them off. I know you can work cross stitches onto the top posts. I am interested in other options with that but have never taken the time to really investigate. I will check out this video and try to learn something new.
