[@gregoryvozar6236]

Such lovely & delicate work! Thank you Rebekah! I'm so happy to see that you have introduced Tunisian crochet on your channel. Once discovered, I could not put it aside. The simplicity of the basic stitches make it accessible to a complete novice. With little more one can create fabric with the stretch and texture of knitting, yet worked with a hook like crochet. Thanks for giving my favourite fibre art a boost!

[@kayceegreer4418]

Regardless of the halo your worried about with that subtle rainbow-colored yarn, the shine in it makes it very easy to see with the light for filming. It was also manufactured with a very nice twist that appears to be very consistent, another point in its favor . . . That is, until I saw that crazy rainbow colored stick! My eyes definitely would have felt drunk trying to follow along! Lol

Lovely Thanks for the clear demo.

[@amydavis4945]

A lot of people don't like doing the Tunisian simple stitch because the fabric curls so much from the bottom. I've found a way to almost eliminate this issue completely is to do this.... Instead of ONLY going through the vertical stitch, go through the vertical stitch AND the front loop of the top stitch right after the vertical stitch, then pull up your loop on your hook.

[@RedStingBlogs]

Thank you I'll give it a try!

[@wendythomas8254]

Wow tyvm! I’ve just started learning Tunisian today and thought it was my tension causing the piece to roll up. Used your tip and I’m much happier with the result

Hi and thank you for this it’s a lovely easy stitch. I am making a scarf for my daughter and I am on my fifth attempt. The problem I’m getting is that even though I have the Sam number of stitches after going 6” it goes from being 12” wide it goes down to 9” the tension is the same. I hope you can help and I can get it done for her. Thank you xx
