Tunisian Crochet is fun and fascinating! A cross between knitting and crochet, it’s fast and easy to do. This Shrug uses the basic Tunisian simple stitch plus an old favorite crocheted edging.

Yarns can be varied in size, style and texture! The model “Rose Garden” (green/pink) uses 5 yarns, including a soft, fuzzy one. The model “Jewels” uses 7 yarns. “Neutral Hi” uses a single yarn, J.C.Brett ‘Marble Chunky’ - 1 ball.

A size 11.5 mm Cro-Cable hook was used in the original models. (ChaioGoo brand) Although a long tunisian hook the same size without a cable will work just fine.
