Tunisian Crochet Blankets

In this beautiful book, fibre artist Anne Van Winkle (@arvcrochet) takes you stitch by stitch through 10 stunning blankets, each designed to help you grow your skills while creating unique, cozy items for your home.

Blending the rich texture and held stitches of knitting with the ease of crochet, Tunisian crochet feels familiar to knitting and crochet lovers from the very first stitch. Thanks to their shape and size, and the soothing repetition of stitches, blankets make wonderful projects for any fibre fan looking to learn something new, as well as make something practical too.
Start with simple, single-colour designs and gently progress toward blankets with more texture, colour and character. With every project, you'll learn new techniques, and build confidence as your blankets become more intricate--and more snuggly.
Inside, you'll find:

• A warm, welcoming introduction to the best yarns, tools and essential stitches you'll use throughout the book.
• Step-by-step guidance with photos or illustrations that make every technique feel achievable--no matter your experience.
• A comforting collection of patterns, from gingham and plaid to hexagons, faux cables, herringbone, stripes and a charming sampler blanket that brings everything together.
• Friendly troubleshooting tips to help you through the trickier moments, just when you need reassurance most.
• Beautiful photography that shows each blanket in full, along with inviting close-ups that highlight the texture and detail of Tunisian crochet.
• Simple advice for resizing any blanket, so you can create the perfect cozy companion--whether it's for a sofa, a bed or a special gift.
