Day 23: Make something using Tunisian crochet
Tunisian crochet (also known as afghan crochet) is where you pick up loops and leave them on the hook and then come back and work the hoops off your hook. It requires a longer crochet hook or any hook without a finger rest. You can also create something very similar to knitting with the Tunisian knit stitch or Tunisian purl stitch. It will look like knitting on the front, but the back will look different and, as usual for crochet, the work will be thicker.
I found a Ravelry pattern for Tunisian fingerless gloves. I ended up not having enough yarn for two and I made it too small…so if anyone knows of a kid who wants just one glove, yeah, I can hook them up.
I also played around with the leftover yarn and made a rather unappealing headband, but it looks good when worn! I intend to someday embroider on the headband as Tunisian leaves a nice counted cross-stitch type surface, but as you saw with the amigurumi post, I stink at embroidery.
