I read somewhere that if knit and crochet had a baby, it would be named Tunisian crochet. LOL. I think, this saying is both funny and smart. Tunisian crochet is different from both knit and crochet and yet, belongs to the same family. The ways you can use colors when doing a Tunisian crochet project are amazing.

Here\'s the easiest video tutorial I could find on how to crochet the tunisian crochet stitch – also known as the afghan stitch or Tunisian simple stitch. You can use any size hook that you would like. Smaller hooks will produce smaller stitches; larger hooks will produce larger stitches. With this in mind, please, go ahead and follow the link to the next page for the video tutorial.

Donna Wolfe from Naztazia http://naztazia.com shows you how to crochet the tunisian crochet stitch – also known as the afghan stitch or tunisian simple stitch – using a special crochet hook called an afghan hook. The stitch creates a look that is a combination of both knitting and crocheting. If you are looking to make a large blanket, you can purchase a \”flexible afghan hook\” that can hold 200+ stitches.
