Learning a New Trick

A couple months ago at my LYS (local yarn shop),

I was coveting this gorgeous green afghan.

It wasn't quite crochet and it wasn't knit, but it was 100% yummy!

Turns out it is Tunisian Crochet!

And there is a fabulous book to learn it written by Sharon Silverman.

Granted I know both how to knit & crochet, but I have to tell you

that I picked this technique up in about the 10 minutes it took my hubby to get ready for bed.

I bet you will pick it up quickly too!

Go try it!!

Go ahead, I'll wait for you..

I decided to use some of my birthday money to

buy a full Tunisian crochet hook set at Stitch Diva .

But there are quite a few learning projects you can do try on just your regular hooks.

This is so much fun, and I just love learning new skills!
