Description

17 stunning Tunisian crochet garments to make with love and wear with pride, from elegant summer tops to cozy winter jackets.

17 stunning Tunisian crochet garments to make with love and wear with pride, from elegant summer tops to cozy winter jackets.

Tunisian crochet is a popular technique that shares similarities with both crochet and knitting. The versatile range of textures it can create, from richly dense to delicate and lace-like, is used to full effect in this sumptuous book from Danish designer and teacher Helle Kampp Mathorne. Ideal for experienced crafters, the book blends Tunisian crochet with elements of both standard crochet and knitting to create 17 stunning garment designs for all seasons.

Choose from:

  • A richly textured skirt with a knitted rib hem;
  • An elegant camisole with glitter stripes and crocheted straps;
  • A long jacket with wheat stitch pattern and raglan sleeves;
  • A stylish camisole with a flower-lace back;
  • And warm, huggable wardrobe staples including roll-necks, cardigans and sweaters.

The designs are written for UK sizes 6 to 18 (US sizes 2 to 14). Charts are included, and a thorough techniques section features the Tunisian crochet stitches and techniques you need with step-by-step visuals. The stunning photography and easy-to-follow patterns will provide both inspiration and guidance when creating your own slow fashion, handmade wardrobe.
