I’ve designed this cowl pattern with beginner Tunisian crocheters in mind. I will take you through the basics of Tunisian crochet, including how to work the foundation row, working 2 different stitches (Tunisian simple stitch and Tunisian purl stitch), a simple decrease and increase, and binding off in pattern. You will also learn how to work in 2 colours and make a button hole.

Pattern includes links to videos of the techniques used.
