Get started in Tunisian crochet!
Learn how to make beautiful blankets, clothing, and home décor with the look of knitting and the ease of crochet!
Tunisian crochet (also known as Afghan crochet) is a blend between knitting and crocheting that offers the best aspects of both techniques. It produces a fabric that is similar to a knit but worked on a hook. It's quick and easy to do, creates a dense, durable fabric, and has become one of the most popular approaches for today's crocheters. The finished projects are sturdy and flexible!
