Tunisian Stitch with Pulled-Through Loops - The Tunisian crochet course is flying by! We’ve already covered the first basic stitches, and now we’re moving on to a fun textured stitch. Is your garland taking shape yet? Read on for the new instructions!
In the 4th lesson of the Tunisian crochet course, we’ll get started with the Tunisian stitch with pulled-over loops. This stitch creates a nice textured pattern that you can use for all kinds of projects. Annemarie explains step-by-step how the stitch works and how to crochet the next flags for the Garland. The patterns are accompanied by a video and detailed instructions.
Fun facts about the Tunisian stitch with pulled-over loops:
- The first two rows of this stitch are the same as the basic Tunisian stitch.
- In this stitch, the last stitch is always worked the same way as in the Tunisian basic stitch. This ensures that the left side of your crochet work also stays nice and straight.
- With a slight modification to the basic Tunisian stitch, you can crochet this beautiful decorative stitch.
- The number of chain stitches you crochet for this stitch must be divisible by 3 plus 2 additional chain stitches.
- When crocheting the Tunisian stitch, it's best to use yarn that doesn't split easily.
