From fiber artist Toni Lipsey of TL Yarn Craft, an introduction to the craft of Tunisian crochet―a unique crochet style that looks more like knitting―with 20 projects for beginners There are hundreds of books that explore traditional crochet, but there are few that reference the concept of Tunisian crochet or present it in a modern, approachable way. The Tunisian Crochet Handbook introduces this fascinating and rewarding technique with a wide array of stitches and design possibilities. The goal of this book is to guide crocheters step-by-step through Tunisian crochet, starting with tools and yarns, transitioning into how-to’s and stitches, and finishing with easy but engaging patterns. The book includes instructional sections and patterns, complete with the necessary schematics and styled, chic photographs. Every shawl, garment, and accessory featured takes makers beyond the basics, introducing new stitches to expand their skill sets. In this way, author Toni Lipsey is reintroducing crochet and encouraging makers to explore the craft further with each new design. Crochet continues to grow in popularity, and this guidebook offers a new take on the timeless classic, one that readers won’t be able to find anywhere else. Review: Clear step by step instructions - Love this book, the atep by step instructions are clear and easy to follow and great fun to make. Beautifully illustrated and well written, brilliant new hobby 😀 Review: Clear, easy to read and understand, good size book - My wife wanted to try this and was pleasantly surprised at how clear the instructions and pictures are.

The perfect journey companion into Tunisian
This had been on my wishlist for a while and I finally bought it. It has not disappointed! Like her YouTube and website, Toni has delivered something of quality that inspires me to step outside of my crafty comfort-zone. First thing's first, this book is beautiful. Having this on my coffee table is visually stunning and you can't say that about all crafty books. And then when you open it, it is filled to the brim with easy-to-understand and encouraging instruction. It wasn't long before I was diving into the projects in the second half of the book. Reading patterns can be a challenge for me, but Toni not only provides instruction on how to read patterns, she also has YouTube videos for those of us who like to hear and see those instructions come to life. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning this interesting yarn craft.

Great teaching guide for Tunisian crochet
I have crocheted for 50+ years and I have tried to learn Tunisian from many other books. Many are not well written or well illustrated. This book is a game changer. It is well written and illustrated, including the patterns that are in the book. Toni also has step by step video tutorials on YouTube for all of the patterns in the book, plus many other projects. The book is very well constructed and will stay open to the page where you are working, without having to put weight on the pages to keep it open. The pages will not tear out easily either. All in all a great addition to my crochet library.

Libro para principiantes
Es un excelente libro para personas que apenas van a aprender esta técnica. Si ya sabes las puntadas básicas y las dominas, este libro ya no te servirá. Lo recomiendo para principiantes, van a aprender muy bien y se van a enamorar de esta técnica. Muy buena autora, excelentes explicaciones, muy bonitas fotografías y buenas ideas para aprender. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
