What's Happening this week?
 

Saturday Samplers 
 

Colorful Scarf


Tunisian Crochet is one of the most forgotten forms of crochet.  It was a popular form of crochet during the Victorian Era, yet it seems to have been lost during the early 20th century.  It has a finished look that is not unlike knitting but done with a single, long crochet hook.
 
If you can do a basic single crochet, you will be able to learn the Tunisian Simple Stitch or as illustrated above, a twisted Tunisian Simple Stitch. 

Our original pattern lends itself to applying a little color theory that you'll think about and apply over and over again to your future projects.

  

Materials supplied:

  • Tunisian crochet hook,  origianl  scarf pattern and  yarns.
  •  Not recommended for children under 12; under 16 must be accompanied by a helping adult.

 

Discounted Class Fee:  $30.00

Walk In Class Fee: $40.00

Materials:  $10.00

Max size:  12
