Description: Tunisian crochet is the best medium I have found for felted projects. It really makes terrific projects and you won't be disappointed! This bag incorporates 3 Tunisian crochet stitches and will allow you the opportunity to learn Tunisian crochet without purchasing a Tunisian crochet hook! That's right! If you have a K or L crochet hook without a thumb rest (like Brittany, Clover, or other wooden hook), you can complete this adorable bag with a smaller hook because the greatest number of stitches on the hook at any given time is only 15 stitches! In addition to learning the Tunisian stitches included in this unique project, you will learn the Tunisian Short Row Technique and then, you'll learn, step-by-step, how to felt your bag without a washing machine.
The pattern for this project is included in the class fee. However, if you prefer not to take the class, the pattern can be purchased separately (without class materials) here (http://www.kimanedesigns.net/products/Lil_Red_Bag.html).
Supplies Needed:
1 skein each of two coordinating colors, Cascade 220, or other comparable felting yarn (be careful not to choose "superwash" as this will not felt)
K afghan hook (Any K or L crochet hook without a thumb rest will also work.)
Small yarn needle (for weaving ends)
