Tunisian crochet (aka. Afghan stitch , Scottish knitting ) is all the rage now it seems!
That's my first attempt. A couple of washcloths that turned out pretty nice! Done in the Tunisian simple stitch and the Tunisian knit stitch.
Crochet now from the U.K. Actually has a Tunisian sampler scarf crochet along! And the magazine even came with the hook. Love that magazine.
Here in this months crochet world magazine was a few more Tunisian patterns including directions for entrelac crochet!!
It's a technique well worth learning with many many possibilities!
It's in all my magazines.. even the ones I get from the U.K.,
There are so many books on it now too!
I gotta say.. I love it!
It's the knitted look without dealing with the needles. Yes please!!!!
Although it's not as fast as regular crochet , it's still faster than knitting. At least for me but I'm a very speedy crocheter!
Yep, I'm just learning it but I'm loving it!

Please ignore than my scarf colors do not coordinate and look super ugly. But my stitches look good!
I didn't want to use good yarn in case it turned out that I was terrible at it. I'm probably going to ditch this sample and start over with nicer and more coordinated yarns!

With so many resources and it's growing popularity its a pretty easy technique to learn now.
