Thank you!!
This stitching really looks interesting, think I'm going to try this, wish me luck
Forgot, hopefully I can make a blanket
Toni you are a born teacher. You have excellent voice quality, you speak confidently, smooth, not choppy and rushed. You know your stuff and you have a unique way of explaining the intended lesson...thank you!
I so agree.
Agree love this
Yes she actually helped! I just watched 5 mins of another lady just showing what she did didn't teach it was so fustrating 😂 she made me feel so much better
I agree completely!
Yes she is, she is awesome and she makes crochet fun and exciting......but I would like to know, does the weight of the yarn matters, if so, what weight of yarn can be use?
Does anyone ( besides me ) ever think about the folks who first came up with these wonderful stitches? They must have been incredibly skilled and adventurous. :D
I stopped crocheting about 25 years ago (I’m 70 now) because 1 i made afghans for every living family member and 2 I moved to Florida where it was too hot to crochet. I was looking for something small to make, to avoid it being too hot. And I found you!!! WOW, crocheting sure has changed since my younger days and I think the obsession has returned. You’re making it FUN again. Thank you so much for your videos.
I am IN LOVE with Tunisian crochet! Thank you so much for making this video and including an entire Tunisian crochet elective in the 2024 Crochet Academy. I've said it before, I'll say it again: You are a fantastic teacher!
I am a crocheter of 30 + years and this style of crocheting has stumped me for about 2 years now until I came upon your video Toni you are awesome I finally got it and look forward to doing the other Tunisian patterns. You are a awesome teacher.😊
Beautiful!!!! Boy, that honeycomb stitch requires focus! Lolol
Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher. At my age (79) I am always looking for new skills to learn in the hope that a busy brain is a happy brain. You have given me the gift of using my hands and brain to make beautiful fabric. I have always been a knitter but lately I have turned away from knitting, A mistake once found means removing rows of work to correct the oops. With the Tunisian crochet working back is much easier, pull out a few rows and your stitches are easier to retrieve. Thanks again, the good Lord as sent me an Angel.
I've watched many crochet channels..you're the only one i can actually grasp what theyre doing and saying at the same time. You dont go too fast, speak clearly and just make sense. Great teacher. . I learned how to crochet from my friends mom in the early 90s but hadnt done it in nearly 3 decades. Now im halfway finished with a full sized Tunisian crochet blanket thanks to you. So...Thank you. Youre awesome
Same here, I tend to need a pretty specific style of teaching in order for any lesson to be healpful to me. Toni has the MOJO in that aspect forsure
WOW! My favorite crochet narrator - "Mikey" - finally has competition in my book! You speak so clearly, go at a good pace for experienced and new Tunisian crocheters, and have a very pleasant voice and manner. Thank you SO MUCH for your "extra" efforts (reminders on # of stitches, nails, great camera angle and clarity, color choices, etc.) to make this an outstanding video. I need to go look up more of your videos now,. LOL
My favourite as well please do more
Omg! I thought the same thing. Mikey has taught me for several years now, and I love his crochet alongs. But Toni has taken his place for a moment with all her great videos. Mikey will always be my no.1 but Ms. Toni is No.1a 😆 I have lost sleep for the pass couple of nights just viewing (not even crocheting) her awesome videos. Happy crocheting! 😊
Oh I agree! I love Mikey, but Toni is just as great. I love her voice and her pace. Thank you Toni!
I agree, as well. I love Mikey. He is wonderful. But Toni is ALSO great! She is good at narrating her work and, like Mikey, she EXPLAINS the overall concept of each stitch. That is so important to me-- I need to understand why I'm doing what I'm doing, i.e., that this will become that as you work it. She's also great at giving pointers and tips. She's my Tunisian Crochet Guru! Keep it up, Toni! You go, girl!
Ditto!!!
Toni, thank you for this great video. You are a great teacher. I am handicapped. I have no fine motor skills on my right hand due to a stroke. I can still crochet, but I had to change the process to make it possible with my right hand. I still right handed crochet, but I make my left hand do all the work while my right hand simply holds the hook still in my fist. I have been thinking about trying Tunisian crochet and just bought a set of hooks. I didn't know about the Tunisian knit stitch. It is beautiful and looks like knitting. I am going to go back and watch your videos to learn the basics and different stitches. I am then going to make some scarfs with the Tunisian knit stitch. I want to make some wash clothes also, but will not be able to do the honeycomb stitch after all. I made many afghans over the years, but now I prefer smaller projects that are easier to complete. I no longer have the speed I used to have.
The lady speaking during this tutorial is great. She takes her time and explains each step clearly. I want to learn more about Tunisian Crocheting. Please make more videos
Linda Starr This lady is an excellent teacher
I like that she speaks clearly and shows each stitch in detail. She goes at a slow enough pace so it is easy to follow. Good job
I like the way you did this video . you didn't move to fast as I'm a beginner. Thanks for sharing.
Although I've been crocheting for 30 years I am always trying to expand my knowledge so I find myself watching a LOT of CZcams videos and reading tons of books. That said, hands down, you are the best teacher I've found. Interesting content, easy to understand, pleasant voice, and simple instructions. Thank you!
All I can say is fabulous. I’m new to using the Tunisian needles and thought I could never do it. You made it easy for me to understand.
You really are an incredibly gifted teacher - there's no-one like you!
In case someone hasn't told you, your smile makes me feel joy. You look so happy. Thanks for spreading the joy.
I agree. Toni's voice is perfect. It is calming and reassuring. I'm very excited to be beginning Tunisian stitching.
Also confident!
This is my very favorite go to tuturialist (maybe not a word) but describes her teaching perfectly. I love to watch her tutorials over and over again. I have recommended her to my friends when they want to learn a new stitch. Thank you for helping us all create beautiful things.
I am making comments as I am watching so I don't forget what I want to say! The knit stitch is so lovely and don't have to wory about dropping all your stitches if the cat gets it! One hook, not two or more needles lol as long as you finish for the night with one loop you are good without losing anything. I usually take a break from my project buy making a long chain that I can undo when ready to start again!
Wow, I am so thankful that I found your channel. I think that the Almighty Father lead me to this type of crocheting. It is just what I needed at the perfect time. He's always on time! Also, I like your style of teaching and you are good at your craft. Good work! I just clicked the bell so that I can get all of your uploads. Thank you!
one of the BEST tutorials ever. please do more!!!
Toni, you are by far the best at crochet tutorials yet. You explain things so perfectly; you make it so easy to follow. Thank you for doing these! It's brought back my love for crochet!
I've been crocheting since I was 5 years old....39 years ago. I've never tried Tunisian Crochet and I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!! Your tutorials are just amazing, you have a gift of teaching!
Thank you so much :)
I always felt intimidated by tunisian crochet but watching your video is showing me what ive missed out on. Thank you for making it look extremely doable.
Amazing job! You have a gift for teaching and a soothing voice for those of us out here who are beginners. Thank you, so easy to follow!
I have recently taken to Tunisian crochet again after 40 years! Done a LOT of both knitting and crochet. Picking up the Afghan hook (I was taught it as Afthan crochet with hooks of the same name) is a delightful, yet a bit cumbersom to get used to since I do not Knife hold my crochet hook. Thank you for such wonderful videos I have been perusing the last couple of days. Your calm, delightful teaching method is absolutely wonderful! I am working on a sampler blanket as I write this!
During the recent cold snap I decided to sit down and learn tunisian crochet and I'm so so glad you did this series. You make these so accessible!
Just found this video and...WOW....you are an excellent instructor. Have done traditional crochet for years but never had the tolerance to knit. Tunisian crochet seemed somewhere in the middle and you made it very easy to learn. Even the pearl stitch!
Toni, You are an amazing instructor of what looks to me as very complicated patterns. You show them with such patience, softness of voice, and encouragement. I followed you in 2 of 5 of your Tunisian stitches, and did pretty well. Need more practice 😊
I love your channel, there's not enough Tunisian crochet tutorials. You're a very good teacher, thank you!
According to Wikipedia, “Gobelin stitch is a slanting stitch used in needlepoint. Gobelin stitch takes its name from its resemblance to the texture of woven tapestries produced by the famous French factory at Gobelins.”
And there you have it!
And there is a spelling difference between Gobelin and goblin. So the stitch is pronounced go-be-lin.
These stitches are so beautiful and explained very clearly. These different stitches together can make a beautiful blanket or scarf. Thank You so much for sharing this tutorial.🌹
I watched this video to find out how to finish in the round rows and how to change colors on these projects. Besides learning these things, I got a lot more valuable information. My grandmother taught me how to do a chain stitch when I was 8 years old or so. Therefore, since I have started crocheting again almost 50 years later I am self or CZcams taught, haha! I agree with Sherri that your clear speaking, good pace and thorough explanation are A++. Thank you, I will be watching this video again to refresh my memory on your tips.
Thank you for explaining all these stitches so clearly. I'm thrilled that I was able to follow along easily and pick it up quickly, even though I was a bit intimidated at the start of the video. You're a great teacher!
I absolutely love your tutorials. Not only are your patterns delightful, but the instructions are clear and easy to follow with no loud parasitic music to distract us.
I'm a fairly experienced crocheter and do well with more complicated patterns, as long as I'm working rounds or lace. I've been crocheting for more than 15 years now, but I could never manage to learn how to crochet straight or regular edges for more than twenty rows. 😂 I want to learn Tunisian crochet because the multitude of patterns is absolutely intriguing. But somehow, every time I tried it, the way of crocheting makes it so I don't stupidly add or miss stitches and end up with an ugly trapezoid instead of a square.
I'll try following your tutorials and make blankets for my cats or something, see how it turns out. :D Thank you for being such a great instructor! Your videos are always very inspiring ❤
Thank you for wonderful demonstration of these stitches. Tunisian crochet is no longer a mystery!!! I've now got hooks AND a teacher. Thank you.
Well Toni… haven’t you just become my new crochet goddess tonight!!
Just sat and watched 2 videos, and learnt how to Tunisian crochet along with you!
I now have a long swatch with 6 different stitches on it… v impressed!!
Shall be making my first Tunisian baby blanket with honeycomb I think??!!
You’re a marvel and a star. Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
YayyyY! I love hearing this. Keep it up! You'll be a pro in no time :-)
This instructor is MARVELOUS! She goes at a perfect pace to try something brand new. Her voice is so soothing and the techniques are clearly explained. Keep it up, I would love to see more!
You are an amazing crochet teacher. Period! I send people to you to learn because you use enough words but not more than enough. Your instructions and camera work are CLEAR. Thank you, thank you for clear instructions and gentle encouragement!!
I'm new to Tunisian crochet and learning so much from you!
Just became a grandmother (first grandchild) and I am making a big baby blanket in cotton. Three colours in stripes and each colour gets its own pattern; basic stich, knit stich and honey comb stich. It's turning out really really pretty!
Thank you so much for explaining so clearly and teaching so inspirational! God bless you 🤗🕊️
I agree with others that you are a wonderful teacher. Thank you for the clear, concise instructions. I never cease to be amazed at how different stitches are created. I mean, who thought this up? Who was the original creator? The trial and error that must have gone in to creating original stitches for all needle crafts! I’m so grateful to all those who have gone before us, who make our lives easier and more beautiful.
This is such a clear tutorial both visually and audibly. You have made sense of gobbildgoop for me. Hadn’t even heard of Tunisian crochet till my hubby asked for a sweater that uses it. Many thanks
Tunisian crochet is so much easier than regular crochet in language and movement. I love that one of the stitches look like a stockinette stitch in knitting. Several years ago, I crocheted a fingerless pair of gloves. It turned out so well that I didn't want to give it away. I promised and finally gave them away sadly. My friend loved the gift, but perhaps, didn't realize how much love I gave them. Thanks for this second refresher video---I might crochet my queen-size blanket in the honey-comb Tunisian stitch! I might do it in squares and stitch them together for project management reasons.
I am just learning tunisian crochet and have found Toni to be simple to follow. you have made my learning journey so much more enjoyable.
I have been doing Tunisian crochet for maybe 10-15 years but I decided to watch this video for two reasons-one I might something new or different and two I just love your approach to instruction and ur personality-not disappointed!!!! Thank you!
Toni, Thank you so much for your easy explanations of these stitches! I have a Tunisian crochet dictionary - which I love because it shows all the beautiful stitches - but it is lacking in the detailed step by step instructions. I am so grateful for your channel!
I did get your book, " The Tunisian Crochet Handbook" and am excited to try the projects! For now, I am practicing the stitches and my tension (which is much more challenging for me to maintain with Tunision crochet!) I'm making soap sacks for charity - a multiple advantage of helping others, practicing stiches and tension, and trying out different cotton/cotton blend yarns.
Thank you, again. I have learned so much from you!
Absolutely the best teacher of Tunisian Crochet on the web!!
Took me about 5 hours to get through this video, but it was 5 hours well spent! Lol I learned how to knit first, but the Tunisian crochet may have just converted me!!! It's kinda like the best of both worlds, the way the yarn is gathered on your hook. And learning to hold the yarn in my left hand, as well as learning to purl while crocheting has actually helped me learn the continental knitting style which is much faster! So glad I found Toni, she's the best teacher for sure!
The honeycomb stich is my favorite! No curling issues and it looks like a complicated stich with minimal effort.
Ten minutes in and you are by FAR my favorite/best video for my search yet. Patient, detailed, easy to watch/hear/understand. From my heart, thank you! I'll be back to you!
Such a good teacher, thank you ♥️♥️♥️👵🏼
I usually can't stand watching tutorials but I was so impressed with your video. It was so clear, easy to follow and easy to see. Thank you.
I think my favorite of these stitches is the honeycomb stitch . Thank you so much, I really want to try tunisian crochet and the honeycomb is going to be part of that
Everything that I’ve ever struggled to learn with crochet magically clicks for me when I learn it from you! You are such an amazing teacher
Thank you so much for helping a knitter of fourty years, finaly learn how to crochet. Your tutorals are clear and so are your insturctions. Thank you.
I'm so glad I could help. Keep up with it! Tunisian crochet is so fun.
Sooo happy I clicked on this video!! The basic Tunisian stitch is my favorite stitch and now I've learned all of these!!! I'm also a knitter so I am completely blown away with the T-knit stitch!!
Toni you're very concise in showing the Tunisian stitches. I'm a beginner and this is so perfect. Thank you.
Really happy I came across your channel🤗🤗 I like to make my samples wash cloth size. If they come out really nicely, I give them away and the others are mine. Can't decide which stitch to start, your instructions are wonderful. Thank you Toni👏🏽👏🏽
I had bought books on Tunisian crochet but didn't understand them. I was so pleased to find you. I now know how so I rarely crochets anymore or knit since I can now do both in just one easy pass. thank u, thank u , thank u. keep up the good work. you r a very good teacher.
Thank you for the tutorials. Its been 30 years since I did Tunisian crochet. Its coming back to me. Your nails are beautiful.
Can I just say, you are a Queen! 👑
Thank you so much for this. Your very clear in these videos and I keep using them as reference. Thank you for taking time to do this for others. Just perfect 👌
I’m so glad I found your channel, I’ve been crocheting and knitting for about 25 years and my husband bought me Tunisian crochet needles for Christmas so I get to learn that now.
Toni, i have to admit even though I watched this video over and over I just can't stop to rewatch your videos! It's just a pleasure to hear at your voice and see you in your element! I admire your effort in each and single one of your videos! Thank you so much for all that you are doing for us and teaching us everything with so much patience! thank you!
Toni, I just found your videos yesterday and I am watching them one-after-another. They are fantastic. I am a crocheter, and received a set of Tunisian hooks as a gift some years ago and never used them. I made a swatch from cotton yarn as I watched your first Tunisian tutorial. and now I have a lovely coaster for my morning coffee. You make this so easy and so much fun. Thank you so much! I can't wait to watch all your videos.
Thank You for your great teaching method love this. Just started my Tunisian crochet journey. Been crocheting for 52 years.
I have been wanting to learn how to do the Tunisian stitch for a while now so I am so excited to have found your videos. You explain things really well. I just ordered my hooks. I can't wait.
I just found you on CZcams and so glad I did. Not only are you clear, concise and specific in your instructions but the handy little tips are fabulous. In addition to teaching crochet, you shoud consider teaching others how to teach on CZcams. Love, love, love you. P.S. bought your book. Beautiful!!!
I learned Tunisian simple stitch several years ago but then lost interest. Recently, at the age of 75 I found your video and my interest picked up immediately. You are a calm, patient teacher with mesmerising hands. Thank you.
Great work in this video. You are a great teacher. Right pace. Effective repetition for learning. Really good stuff. -49 year old guy with family history of crafting
If someone just learned the Tunisian simple stitch and wanted to learn other Tunisian stitches, THIS would be the tutorial I'd recommend. It is bloomin' perfect! Instructions are clear, pictured in an easy to follow way. Now that I'm retired, it's time to do the fun things on my bucket list. More Tunisian crochet stitches? Check ✔. You are such a fab teacher!!!
Love, Love, Love how you teach!! I've been crocheting for 32 years and I have learned Tunisian from you!!! Thank you so much!
You’re a great teacher! I’m understanding on the first view. Thank you!
Vous êtes extraordinaire pour nous enseigner et vous donnez de l’amour pour le crochet tunisien. Merci! Et vous êtes facile à comprendre en anglais. Merci ❤
Toni thank you for this tutorial. I absolutely love Tunisian. It helped me to go from crochet to knit easily. It’s such an easy form of crochet especially for all those cute baby washcloths I enjoy giving away as gifts! You are an amazing teacher and speak with confidence and fluidity. Also, I appreciate the fact that you do not talk endlessly about useless stuff. All you talk about is always relevant!
Please! Post more Tunisian crochet videos!!! You explain beautifully, and I'm looking forward to watching more videos of yours!
Thank you for being super educational but not making me stupid! You are so easy to follow and I have never seen the Tunisian way of crochet!
Love that you show different tunisian stitches together. It easier to decided which one I want to do. Thank you so much.
Congrats! I literally just discovered your channel last night, and wanted to help get you to 500K! I'm glad you made it before 2023 🙂
Thank you. I only found your page now and I am só greatful that I can learn from you. I love Tunisian, it is my calling but learning was a worry until now.
I love your videos. I appreciate how clearly you explain everything. It's like having you sit next to me on the couch while I learn.
Just beginning Tunisian crochet. Love your videos!!
I've recently seen a handful of random videos that use Tunisian stitches but without words I was stumped ans intrigued at the same time. I hit up CZcams and yours was the first video I came across.....I love that you explain what you are going to do then explain again as you do it, made it simple enough to follow along with you while working the stitches myself.
Your explanation of the gobelin stitch is SO much more clear than the instructions at PurlSoho. Thank you very much for this video. I feel like I understand tunisian crochet a lot better now that I've watched a few of your videos. I especially appreciate you explaining why one does certain things because if you make mistakes, like I often do, you really must know why you made those mistakes in order to correct yourself.
Thank you for explaining so clearly. Your voice is relaxing to listen to, and your enthusiasm is fun. Looking forward to learning from your other videos.
This is by far the best tutorial i have seen!!! I learned 5 "doable" stitches in one class!!! These will take me through the year.
This was definitely put in my saved folder 😊 I really like Tunisian crochet as I am a bit of a too tight knitter.
Thks for this tutorial. I love crochet but the knitting has a nice gauge. With your tutorials I understood what is about the Tunisian crochet and now I keep a crochet hook in my hand with a beautiful knitting look!!! Thks a lot!
I'm a new viewer, and itching to practice tomorrow when little at school. I'm from the UK and and loving how you explain things
I am 69 years young and recently decided to learn new ways (stitches) to knit and crochet. Tunisian has definitely taken over for me. Do you teach brioch knit? There are many videos on it but you are such a superior instructor I would love to see how you would teach it. I am new to CZcams so I hope I do not lose your videos. I have also subscribed so hopefully I won't lose you. Keep up the good work. It is greatly appreciated!
Hello Toni, thank you for your channel. You are a born teacher and you have lead me to try different crochet stitches, however, the Tunisian stitch is my favourite. Thank you and greetings from Australia
Clearest tutorial I've ever seen, no time wasted, beautiful visually and lovely to listen to. Brava and thank you!
This is my first time working with Tunisian Crochet, and your explications are so easy. Thank you for making this a great experience and not frustrating!
The stitches look harder to do than they actually are to make. Thanks for making these stitches easy to follow, great teacher and voice. Thanks!
You explain what others omit, making the learning much more fluid & accurate.
Like the happy music in the background, and the video is very clear and perfectly edited! Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the informative tutorial. Yesterday completed my first simple and knit stitch wash cloths .
I am so thrilled I found your site. Recently, we had a kitchen fire that luckily did not do a ton of fire damage but we had/have a lot of smoke damage. Everything has been very overwhelming and my anxiety kicked into high gear. To calm myself, I picked up my crochet hook and started making dishcloths . . . lots and lots of dishcloths. A few days in, I decided I was going to try to learn Tunisian crochet. I had always wanted to try it, but always put it off. I found a tutorial on Pintrest and started working on a piece using the simple stitch. I was very excited about learning something new and having it actually work out, so of course I wanted to learn a new stitch immediately. That is when I found your tutorials. They are amazing. You explain things so well and you have your camera set up so well. It is easy to follow along and you always make a point to re-emphasize some of the basics along the way. You have made me excited to try new projects with new stitches. I will be sticking with rectangles for now. I have struggled to learn how to increase and decrease.But when I am ready, I will definitely be coming back to view your tutorials.
You are such a natural teacher! I love how you explain EXACTLY where the hook goes, and WHY things are happening! As someone who learned crochet via CZcams (after being an avid knitter), I have watched A LOT of videos. Yours are SO comprehensive! Thanks for your hard work!
Excellent tutorial! Instructions are clear and easy to follow and her enthusiasm for the stitch confirms my own belief in the ease and beauty of Tunisian crochet.
I am brand new to the Tunisian stitches and you are a wonderful teacher! Thank you so much for taking us step by step through these. I am so excited to start a new project using these stitches!
