[@playhooky]

So many beautiful patterns to crochet with so many beautiful yarns; never enough time lol. Thanks for all your videos & patterns Kim.

Thank you! Light bulbs came on for me in this one!!!

Thank you for these videos! I cannot tell you how amazing it is to be able to learn crochet from people I don't even know. I'm new to crochet but even newer to Tunisian and I have used your videos to piece together what I'm supposed to do in this pattern and it's working!! I feel so awesome, you're awesome!

You're a good teacher and I'm going to be sure to tune in to your longest video to calm me down at the end of a stressful day. I'm just going to turn down the light on my screen and set you by my pillow...and drift off . . . .

REALLY GOOD tutorial. I'm starting to explore Tunisian Crochet, but there weren't many clear lessons on the net. Thank you so much for your vids.

OMG! I was using the full knit stitch to do a neck warmer but my right edge was going out to the right. I thought that maybe doing a simple knit stitch on the right edge would solve that. But now I know. Thank you.

Super clear videos and explanations. Thank you.

[@Jinxjenkins]

Brilliant explanation as usual! Many thanks!

I really like this video series you've posted on tunisian crochet, not too many videos available out there. I was going to make a scarf using this stitch. I wonder if you have any videos on beanie projects using tunisian crochet, though I couldn't find any. It is easy to make a scarf,that I can figure out. Also any ideas if tunisian crochet takes up more yarn than regular crochet. thanks for this video with such clear instructions!

Rebecca McGuire I've never tried this hat in the round but it seems pretty straight forward. I would just work the stitch in the same way as I would for flat Tunisian. If you mean working in the round in general, try my video for the Mardi Gras cowl or look for my book on Double-Ended Tunisian.

[@sexy59red]

i already knew how to do this but was wondering how you would go about doing it in the round to make a hat using this stitch?

You are good at explaining things... as a matter of fact, you are very good at taking the time and clearly showing the work and pointing out the crucial steps and pointing out where things could go wrong if you went too fast and someone missed it. However comparisons to possible unknown things are confusing for most beginners, whether it be a new Stitch or being a beginner of Tunisian. Most watchers mayn't've send the video to which you have referred prior to this viewing of this one. It occurs to me you may've done one long video and segmented it parceling it out to us... cool ...this is giving me ideas for my future, but anyway... Intrepid learners, such as myself, with a sink or swim mentality to jump in and do, without having prior knowledge of anything, get confused when you compare one thing to another that we don't know or haven't any experience. We can make the connections later if we have had... but it's best not to confuse us at the moment of teaching. Not only people like myself, but not everybody has come across your former video first. This video may have come up in our queue, like now, without any prior knowledge of who you are or your Channel or the Stitch that you're comparing to what you're showing now. See what I mean? It's kind of like that line in Jerry Maguire "show me the money"... or like I've heard many men say, " I don't want the whole story of Labor and Delivery, just show me the baby". Oh, no... wait ...does that make me a guy....? (shiver & smh) P.S. a principle, from a pattern I saw emerge in the Bible, is that in teaching, you 1. tell what you're going to teach, 2. teach what you're going to teach, and, 3. then you tell them what you taught. Anything done/said once, is a unique occurrence which may be more significant than anything ,or, have not much significance at all. It is prophetic, or merely introduced; anything said/done twice, is established for the moment, but temporal/may change as situations or people/ politics/culture change; but, three times, is completely established, and won't change. So in teaching this way it is set and it eliminates confusion via doing away with anything to distract the Mind from learning the subject/ focusing on the matter at hand. This is why hearing, seeing, and saying what was taught is completely established. If there is anything extraneous, it muddies the water. It's like when you step into a puddle or pond of clear water,and swish your foot across the bottom and the silt rises up... then you can't see clearly anymore. This will greatly help any dyslexics or lefties trying to figure out the reverse or the mirror of what you're doing. I actually don't know if I am a touch dyslexic or not, but when I have to tune out my Razor Focus to ignore things that don't have any association with my forward progress, it confuses me and I may miss something important. I know I am not the only one out there like this. My focus in teaching anybody anything is that they don't go away depressed because they "can't do it". So comparisons to possible unknowns = bad; Focus on what is at hand = good; Tips and tricks and advise = a welcome bonus.

Where is the hook from???

[@PureSniperWolf]

I've wanted to do Tunisian crochet for a few years, but wasn't sure how to do it (nor had a proper Tunisian hook). I decided to try it and was lead to your site, crochetkim.com. I'm so glad you had this video! Thank you! My first few rows look like they're supposed to! Now to get a hang of how tight to stitch, haha. Great video. Very clear instructions. Now Tunisian crochet isn't so scary. ^_^

[@Kim-py3iv]

I got lost on the skip the first stitch and skip last. Is it skip one yes for the beginning and one for the ending?

[@CrochetkimWebsite]

It is a two-row repeat. You skip one at the beginning for one row then one at the end for the next row and it goes back and forth throughout.

[@CrochetkimWebsite]

Thank you. I'm currently uploading 38 videos (19 for right-handed view and 19 for left-handed view). It should take all day to get them all uploaded. Stay tuned. :-)

The mesh stitch is a difference stitch. 🤨
