*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.
