I am a life-long hardcore knitter (63 years old) and have just accidentally 'discovered' Tunisian crochet while searching for knitting patterns. Naturally, wanting to know more, I searched RU-vid and found your amazing channel. You immediately became my go-to person for instruction in this delightful craft. I am currently binge-watching all the videos on your excellent site and have to say, Great job in explaining everything so clearly and thoroughly. Many, many thanks!

@j.s.1816 2 года назад

Welcome to the world of crochet. I've crocheted for decades and love it. I am learning to knit, slowly. It's nice.

It's wonderful that you discovered this. I've just found this channel myself and absolutely love it! May I ask how you've gotten on with the crochet since your comment? I do hope you're having fun and still learning new things 🙂

@helenpatrick3279 4 года назад

After watching several of your Tunisian crochet videos. I took a free image off the internet of a Ninja Turtle! I opened Excel and made the columns and rows look like graph paper. Then I converted the image into a colored pattern. I am making a blanket for my granddaughter for Christmas. Can I just say I have been knitting for 50 of my 66 years! I am lefthanded and knit and crochet righthanded . It was just easier. I L.O.V.E. the tunisian crochet for blankets!! It is wonderful. I would love to send you a picture, but I don't know how!

@lizjohnson1174 5 лет назад

OMG...beautiful blanket! And not just that, that was probably the BEST explanation of color changes and visual video I have seen to date on Tunisian crochet. I have looked for an explanation of color changes and weaving in the ends on different sites with no visual explanation. I taught myself to crochet and now I really want to learn to do Tunisian crochet. Oh yeah...subscribed! And I have to agree with many people in the comments...you have a wonderful teaching voice and you take it slow. Fantastic! If I could rate you it would be an A++++! Great job!

You show the little things (like making the yarn taught for no holes) and everything works. Thank you for the free tutorial. I am a widow and want to make my newest grandson a picnic type blanket for the shade. This is the exact pattern I wanted. I am now a dedicated subscriber! God bless!

I love, love, love that he is crocheting. My late husband loved that I knit and crochet and bragged on me, but wouldnt try to do it. My new husband is willing to try anything. He is a great carpenter and remodels houses, but anything else I want him to try with me, he jumps right in. It makes this hobby more fun for me. Kudos to Jacob. I'm using you as an example of what my husband can do if he tries.

@MarilynHodgin 3 года назад

Toni, you are an incredible teacher. Your voice is so easy to listen to, and your instructions are very clear! Since Covid started, I was looking for a new craft, and came across Tunisian crochet. I then found your beginning instructions, and this past year, I have made many dishcloths with some of the various basic stitches that you shared with us. Thank you so much for the work you do on this channel. I'm working on this afghan for my first great grand baby. I'll send you a photo when I finish. Thanks again for your great instructions.

@cherb_soco1891 6 лет назад

@patriciarowe3431 5 лет назад

Thanks!!!!!!!!l.......For being to the point and not rambling on. Really easy to follow your instructions. Keep doing what your doing because many talk about too many other issues while your trying to get the pattern and stitches down and you get lost and have to keep going back to what you forgot. LOVED THIS ONE.

@robynrex1333 5 лет назад

Beautiful work. Thank you for teaching me this craft! Your positive attitude is so inspirational. I hope you continue with these tutorials as you are a natural teacher!

@monicap65 Год назад

I keep the yarn from tangling by placing each ball in a small ziplock style bag and then lining them up in a box. When you do the forward pass they will untangle and when you do the reverse pass they cross over. Also, by putting them in the ziplock baggies I am easily able to move my project around without the balls unwinding all over the place. I purchased the baggies at a local Dollar Tree. I learned that trick while working on much larger lap afghan projects.

@kellylaw2875 3 года назад

This is the old Afghan stitch that was out years ago and I made a poinsettia christ.as blanket out of it and oh man it took me forever cause there were granny square squares in the adjacent columns. Then cross stitching on the afghan stitching. It is a very nice stitch to use and work with. If you want the pattern to it just throw me a pm and I'll find it and send it to you. It's about 15 to 20 yrs old

@mdbw3411 2 года назад

I started out despising tunisian crochet, I only had a 7mm afghan hook with a super rounded head and I felt like I was constantly fighting against curl and couldn’t figure out how to insert properly into the last stitch. For anyone who feels like me, KEEP GOING! Experiment with different hooks and yarns! Try bigger projects! Now that i’ve been working with tunisian crochet for a while and I have a few decent corded hooks, it’s just so much fun and so adore the flowy light fabric you can make with certain stitches. Family members have loved the face washers and coasters I work up for them in free time. Perseverance is key sometimes 💛
