If you're intrigued by Tunisian crochet but don't know where to begin, this book contains an introduction plus five patterns. It's a shortened version of Sharon's Tunisian Crochet: The Look of Knitting With The Ease of Crocheting, making it a great choice if you're unsure and just want to dip your toes in! Clear photos explain the basics, while patterns include a scarf, skirt, lacy shawl, baby blanket and a vibrant placemats. * Inside Crochet * The publication has large, clear diagrams of the ways of working the three basics stitches; Tunisian simple stitch, Tunisian knit stitch and Tunisian purl stitch. It also describes the tools used and explains that the hooks are long because they often have to hold a large number of stitches for the first pass [...] There are instructions on how to decrease, how to change colours and how to finish off the piece. The second part of the publication has five projects; a scarf, a skirt, a shawl, a baby blanket and a set of place mats - all basic patterns that are ideal for a beginner. If this is your first venture into Tunisian crochet it is a useful source. -- Rita Taylor * Slipknot *
