Colour Fade
Try your hand at Tunisian crochet with these stylish colour gradient stripes. This technique produces a dense, hard-wearing fabric with a woven effect that’s perfect for cushions. See the pencil case project in Simply Crochet for details on how to work Tunisian Simple Stitch.
Each Row of Tunisian Crochet is made up of a Forward Pass (FwdP) and Return Pass (RetP). You do not turn the work at all, so you will be working from the RS throughout.
This project is from the book Tunisian Crochet by Pernille Cordes, published by Turbine (currently in Danish only). For stockists of this book and more details, visit www.englegarn.dk
