    Tunisian Crochet Color Changing Trick

    Recently we had a "Tunisian Week" on Instagram where we walked through all the basics of Tunisian in one week of easy-to-digest tutorials. (Follow along on Instagram here so you don't miss the next one!)

    One of the things we learned was how to make Tunisian crochet look woven by doing a simple color change between every other forward pass and return pass. Since the yarn isn't cut at the end of each color change, you don't have a lot of extra ends to weave in. I think this is pretty incredible given the complex look of the resulting fabric.

    Ready to learn the simple trick for creating this woven effect? Watch the brief video tutorial below to learn how to do it yourself in one minute flat!

      Your "simple" video on changing colors needs voice comment Also, 59 seconds is too short as it is. Very hard to follow.
