You may be asking yourself, what is Tunisian crochet and why has it become so popular? Tunisian crochet, also known as afghan crochet, is a form of crochet that combines knitting and crochet to mimic knitted or woven fabric. For a crocheter, it’s an easy way to get that coveted knitted look without technically knitting. With this Tunisian Crochet Guide, learn the 5 things you need to know from Tunisian expert Alexandra Halsey at With Alex before getting started with this unique crochet technique. Tunisian crochet can be used to make garments, blankets, and even amigurumi. Some Tunisian stitches can make a very dense, thick fabric that is perfect for winter garments, blankets, and amigurumi. Other Tunisian stitches can create airy, lacy fabrics that are perfect for summer garments and projects that require a lace element. Basically, with Tunisian crochet, you are picking up loops, which stay on your hook until you make a return pass to remove the loop from the hook to complete the stitch. This can be done flat, row by row, or in the round. Tunisian crochet is very repetitive and can be very meditative and relaxing. PLUS!
