From the Publisher

Stitch 64 – Purled Front Post Tunisian Stitch (PFptc)

This stitch dictionary contains over 70 basic stitches and their variations. Purling (moving the yarn to the front of the fabric before starting the stitch) the Front Post Tunisian stitch creates a playful twist that adds extra texture and interest to your fabric.

Stitch 352 – Cabled Tunisian Crochet

“Cables have always fascinated me—and Tunisian crocheters deserve to enjoy them too! I love working with 2 over 1 cables because they really pop in Tunisian Crochet and are easy to work even without a cable needle.” —Lori Harrison, author of Tunisian Crochet: A Stitch Dictionary

Stitch 399 – TSLST with TPS

This timeless houndstooth pattern is easier than it looks! By alternating Tunisian Slip Stitch (Tslst) and Tunisian Purl Stitch (Tps), you achieve a classic look while only working one color per row.

Stitch 489 – TSS & TWUP Honeycomb

This is the only Tunisian stitch dictionary that includes stitches worked in the round! Stitches look different when you use two colors in the round and this fun honeycomb stitch is a perfect example.
