Tunisian Crochet
Paula Johnson
$30
Class meets two times: Mon, Dec 3 and 10
10-1 pm
Tunisian crochet could be considered a fusion of
knitting and crochet. The textile created using the
elongated hook more closely resembles a woven texture
with a dense body. Tunisian crochet (also known
as Afghan stitch) is wonderful for creating placemats
and hot pads. Students will learn the basics of “forward” and “return” using a Tunisian Afghan hook. This
advanced beginner class is for students with previous
crochet experience.
