Tunisian Crochet Patterns: Five Basic Rules

About Tunisian Crochet Patterns

Standards in Tunisian crochet pattern writing are less developed than for other crochet patterns. I hadn’t noticed this until I began publishing my own Tunisian crochet patterns. When I write a non-Tunisian crochet pattern, I check with the industry’s official yarnstandards.com site and usually find everything I need, from yarn weight descriptions to skill levels and crochet stitch symbols. The important thing about this is that I feel confident that other professional crochet designers are using the same site as they write their patterns too. This helps all crocheters.

Tunisian Standards are Evolving

Five Peaks Wrap: Tunisian pattern in
Interweave Crochet, Spring 2010.

When writing a Tunisian crochet pattern, however, there is a still-developing standard list of Tunisian stitch symbols and skill level details. Sure, a Tunisian pattern that requires no shaping is rated easier than one that does need shaping. It gets fuzzy when it comes to how Tunisian stitches are worked into which stitch loops. Some are more intermediate or advanced than other stitches.

Example, pictured: the Five Peaks Wrap pattern was rated Easy when it appeared in the Spring 2010 issue of Interweave Crochet Magazine. It is 90% Tunisian Simple Stitch (the beginner’s stitch), and in most of the rows, you do the same thing over and over.

However, this bias-crocheted L-shaped wrap is such a different experience of Tunisian crochet that in retrospect, it should probably have been rated Intermediate.

Pattern Formats

I’m also finding out as I teach Tunisian crochet classes that the best way to arrange the sections of a Tunisian crochet pattern, and write certain things, differ from what works for non-Tunisian crochet patterns. Tunisian crochet patterns contain a handful of unique abbreviations in addition to the usual ones. Unless the only thing going on is Tunisian simple stitch, crocheters may struggle more if the list of Tunisian pattern abbreviations is on a separate page. (It requires one to flip back and forth between pattern and abbreviations list.)

At the end of this post I’ve listed the most common abbreviations that are special to Tunisian crochet patterns.

The Five Rules of Tunisian Crochet Patterns

Aquarienne breaks Rules 3 & 5.

Knowing these default standards will help you use Tunisian crochet patterns. They might not be spelled out in a pattern. I’m not sure whether these five have ever been explicitly explained in one place.

  1. Each complete row consists of two steps: a Forward Pass, when you put loops on the hook; and a Return Pass, when you work the loops off of the hook.
  2. The fronts of your stitches face you at all times; you do not turn your work at the end of a Forward Pass or Return Pass. (Unless specifically instructed to.)
  3. The single loop on the hook at the beginning of every Forward Pass counts as the first stitch of the new row. We do not chain to begin a new row, unless specifically instructed to, such as for taller stitches. Also, skip the very first stitch along that beginning edge of the row, otherwise you’ll increase by one stitch.
  4. The last stitch at the other end of the Forward Pass is worked into two edge loops, not just one. It results in a nicer finished edge. Work this last stitch more loosely to match the first stitch of the Forward Pass. This is because the first stitch typically loosens as you complete the row.
  5. Most Tunisian stitches contain a total of five loops. They’re called “bars” in Tunisian crochet patterns. There is a front and a back vertical bar, and three horizontal bars at the top of these two vertical bars. (Taller and compound stitches will have more stitch loops.) Imagine what this means: you can work into not only 1 of 5 different loops of a stitch, but any combination of these 5…or into the space between two stitches…time for me to go swatch some ideas. So much more to discover about Tunisian crochet!

Pattern Abbreviations

Tunisian crochet patterns share many common and standard abbreviations with other crochet patterns. Some examples: st for stitch, ch for chain, rep for repeat, RS for right side of item or stitch pattern.

The Most Common Abbreviations in Tunisian Crochet Patterns

Rimply breaks Rule 4.
  • vb = vertical bar
  • hb = horizontal bar
  • FP or ForP or FwdP (or similar) = Forward Pass
  • RP or RetP or RtnP (or similar) = Return Pass
  • Tss or TSS = Tunisian Simple Stitch
  • Tks or TKS = Tunisian Knit Stitch

So, how many of the five rules of Tunisian crochet patterns do you always remember, even if they’re not explicitly stated?

On the Hook: New Tunisian Crochet Design

Last week I started a new design that I need to wear soon. I’ll be attending a daytime memorial service in Florida. My plain black sleeveless dress just needs a light covering for my upper arms and chest. That’s why this project is in all black Lotus yarn. (It’s purely a coincidence that I’ll finish in time for Halloween tomorrow.)

Its tentative name is Graven because I first thought of raven’s wings, and it has an engraved-looking texture. I think the last all-black thing I designed was a 2007 mini skirt of single crochet for Caron yarns in their Simply Soft yarn.

Story—its Style and Texture

Early (earliest?) Wicker variation swatched
Early (earliest?) Wicker variation swatched.

The main stitch pattern is similar to one I created for Weightless and Liebling. I’ve planned to design with it for years. I chose short rows to shape it instead of steadily increasing in the round from the neck down, or gathering the neckline. This made it an interesting process.

Sleek black lace crew-neck capelet for daytime urban streetwear (Oct. 2016 Valentino ad for "Glamgloss" sunglasses)
Oct. 2016 Valentino ad for “Glamgloss”

A recent “Glamgloss” ad by Valentino inspired the design idea. Originally I was going to name it “Glaze” or “Lotus Glaze”. It evolved and now will probably be more of a capelet to be worn open in the front or closed in the back.

About the Edging

New Tunisian Crochet Mesh Design in Progress

Last night I tried out the edging you see here. It blocked overnight and today I’m very happy with how it resolved some issues.

Edging priorities:

  • Prevent flaring or ruffling at the hem
  • Add a bit of length because I made it too short for me
  • Give it a restrained but special design detail.

I hope it’s restrained enough! (I struggle with that.)

The stitch choices are very carefully picked to deal with how the hem hangs. This is my top priority because I feel like a little girl if something ruffles even slightly over my upper arms. Some of the stitches recede to create a subtle ribbing effect that pull the hem in just enough. I like the vertical texture they add.

The tiny twisted loops (the shortest I could make them) are actually energy coils that add resilience to the flexy rib, since this yarn has no wool or other stretchy fiber in it. The picots I tried didn’t do this. It’s also dense enough overall to weigh down the hem without the need for beads or a hidden chain.

Close up of the change in stitch pattern for the collar, in progress. These are twisted Tunisian crochet stitches in DesigningVashti Lotus yarn, "Black Gleam" color. (It's inky, glossy, deep black but doesn't look like it in this lightened photo.)
Close up of the change in stitch pattern for the collar, in progress. These are twisted Tunisian crochet stitches.

I first used a twisty loop edging for Aquarienne, my newest published pattern. For that design they’re beaded and a bit longer.

For the neck edge I used a different stitch pattern while crocheting the main piece. You’re looking at twisted Tunisian extended stitches. Interesting texture! I haven’t used them like this before.

As a Crochet Pattern

If/when I write up Graven as a downloadable pattern, it will be for an Experienced skill level and with a video. This is mainly due to what it’s like to do the main Tunisian mesh in short rows. Graven has a project page in Ravelry where I’ll post updates.

Upcoming Classes & Events

NEW online crochet class May 18 & 19, 2022:

See my new gallery at the Herringbone Chains class resources page!

Crochet Herringbone Chains for All the Things

This is a two-hour class taught over two days: 1:00 pm –2:00pm Central Time on Wednesday May 18 & Thursday May 19. Register with CGOA. Registration closes May 15 or when the class is filled.

Class description & supplies needed: 

Here’s a stitch that is almost as useful as our basic chain stitch because it can be used in place of chain stitches. That’s a lot of uses! This means in chain-lace stitch patterns, as turning chains, as simple utility cords such as drawstrings, and for effect, such as in jewelry.

I’ve even used herringbone chains as Tunisian return passes instead of the usual chains.

Believe it or not, you can even use them to form the post of a tall stitch, while you’re crocheting the initial yarn overs off of the hook. All of these uses will be covered in class.

As far as I know, I developed this method of crocheting the “bugle cord/braid/chain/sinnet”, which is well-known in knot-tying world. In fact, the finger-chaining the knotters do is also sometimes called “single bugle”. To me, being able use a crochet hook to make this “bugle” chain is much faster, easier, and more versatile.

The herringbone chains pictured are like doubled chains; I’ll also show you how to do tripled ones. Why would you want to? Sometimes chain stitches are just not pretty, substantial, or polished-looking enough. For drawstrings, spaghetti straps, etc., I often want a denser, smoother, or reinforced cord than just chains. The herringbone texture also has classic good looks, so it’s great to be able to add it to a project. Other times you want a chain stitch to be nearly invisible; at those times I wouldn’t use herringbone chains.

New online crochet class meets April 27 & 28, 2022:

Zegue-Along: Tunisian Scrap Zapper Project

This is a two-hour class taught over two days: 11:00am – 12:00pm Central Time on Wednesday, April 27 & Thursday April 28, 2022. Register with CGOA. Registration closes on 4/24/2022 or when the class is filled.

Class description:

See the complete class listing at https://www.crochet.org/page/OnlineEducationProgram. See its new Resources Page: https://www.designingvashti.com/zegue-along-tunisian-crochet-class-resources/.

The Zegue wrap I made for myself has brought me much happiness through a difficult year. I also fondly remember the process of making it: the stitch pattern has just a little challenge (typical of ripples) to make it interesting, and it’s easy to memorize because it has a one-row repeat. The yarns I used were high-end Italian imports. Each row felt like I was treating myself.

Use any yarn and any hook size to make a range of items; we’ll stick with simple shapes. We can do a lot with clever folds, seams, or…cuts. The stitches are self-healing: cut open armholes or a head opening where and when you wish. The edges are already sealed and polished-looking!

This design is great for a class project because it’s stress-free in many ways. It’s an easy way to combine odd balls of special novelty yarn stash. I’ve found that Tunisian crochet tends to make a wider range of novelty yarns look and feel good to crochet with. 
The extended stitch used here marries different yarn weights effortlessly.

Choosing a good crochet hook size to use with yarn scraps of different weights is just not an issue. Neither is the hook length! The one I used for the wrap only needed to be 11″ long! This lacy stitch pattern cuts in half the number of stitches needed for a 57″-wide wrap.

Vashti’s Crochet Classes in 2020

Collage of many examples for Big-Hook Slip Stitch Crochet Class by Vashti Braha
Collage of many examples for Tall Stitch Virtuosity Crochet Class by Vashti Braha
First up: July 23, 24, and 25, 2020 via Zoom. Each class was live for one hour per day, for three days.

In 2020 I taught two classes for the Crochet Guild of America. It was the first ONLINE edition of their popular Chain Link conference.

It was my first time teaching online. I’m still excited about it! They were also the first 3-hour online classes for CGOA, and we’re discussing all the valuable feedback we received about them from the participants.

Thank you!  I enjoyed the class and learned a lot!

Thanks for the wonderful and inspiring class(es).  It is great having a teacher with passion for their topic! 

Thank you so much.  I took both of your classes and learned so much! You have truly inspired me and I thank you so much!

Thank you for an excellent class.  I learned a LOT and also discovered how much I still have to learn.

some Feedback from participants

CGOA’s plan is to have one or two class topics taught by one or two teachers per week, going forward.

Subscribe to my newsletters so that you find out what I find out when I find it out. Or, subscribe to the blog: scroll down to the bottom right corner of this page and click “subscribe”.

Quick Facts

These first two crochet classes were a total of three hours long each; an hour per day, three days in a row. As usual, I provided comprehensive full-color handouts.

It seems to be the consensus that each meeting time could have been a bit longer than an hour. For example, a three-hour class could meet twice for 1.5 hours each time. Perhaps even on the same day, however I did also like a 24 hour gap before the next meet up. Participants had a chance to practice and swatch what they learned. When we met again, everyone was ready with great questions, and swatches to show.

Even More Show & Tell!

I always bring lots of crocheted examples of topics I teach. In yarn industry lingo I guess it’s called having an in-class trunk show per topic. Normally this means deciding which crochet items to ship to the conference.

This time I had all the crochet at my fingertips here at home base.

Why so many items? I test fibers, dyeing styles, crochet hook sizes, stitch variations, shaping methods, and all the what-ifs. These items often inspire students to try variations with their own projects. A class project may end up being the starting point of a new design.

I discovered that for the first time, I could bring my mannequin to class! I could also show some of the crochet books from my home library, not just talk about them.

I hope to teach many more virtual crochet classes! It’s a great way to learn crochet. Whenever I did a stitch demonstration, for example, each person had the same full screen close up view. Like a good YouTube video, I guess, but anyone could ask me more about any step, such as to explain it a different way. Or to explain when to do something this way and when that way.

Tunisian Crochet Patterns from Lacy to Solid

Tunisian crochet, a type of crochet for which special Tunisian crochet hooks are available, has gone by different names over the years. Those of us who grew up in the USA in the 1970’s called it “afghan stitch”. Prior to that it has been called everything from “Hook Knitting” to “Tricot Crochet” to the romantic “Royal Princess Stitch.”

If you think you know what Tunisian crochet is, make sure you’re up to date! It’s enjoying an exciting renaissance.

Subscribe to my newsletter to stay informed about this hot crochet technique. Learn about new Tunisian stitches and find out when new Tunisian crochet patterns and hooks are added to this site.

The formerly dense, thermal Tunisian crochet has many new lacy looks with fashionable drape. It’s starring in new yarns for new projects and sometimes co-starring with other interesting crochet techniques in the same project, such as Slip Stitch, Broomstick, and Hairpin Lace. Some of my laciest, most ethereal designs, such as Mesmer and Weightless, are easily created with simple Tunisian stitches.

The most distinctive difference between regular and Tunisian crochet is that each complete Tunisian row has two parts: a “forward pass” (begin by putting loops on the crochet hook) and a “return pass” (complete the stitches by working each loop off of the hook).

Is it more like crocheting, or more like knitting?

During each forward pass, each stitch is held on the hook across a row, and this causes it resemble knitting to some folks. It’s often an enjoyable first experience of crochet for knitters. In fact, classes for it are growing in demand at yarn shops around the country.

Check this Events page to find out when I’m teaching Tunisian crochet classes online and in yarn shops.

I think Tunisian crochet has more in common with regular crochet than with knitting. One hook is used throughout instead of two needles. Although the stitches can initially look very different (and some even mimic knitted fabric), they have an innate crochet structure. For example, the return pass resembles chain stitches and is structurally equal to slip stitches. A fun fact that to my mind is the most important of all is this: the lesser-known but handy linked stitches of regular crochet are structurally the same as Tunisian stitches.

About Tunisian Crochet Hooks

A Tunisian row can have any number of stitches in it, and the Tunisian crochet hook only need be long enough to hold all the stitches. A Tunisian hook with a long flexible cable attached to it is best for a very long row of stitches, such as for an afghan worked in one piece, or for a shawl or scarf worked lengthwise.

At the other extreme, a row with few stitches, such as with Tunisian entrelac, can be worked with a common regular crochet hook as long as it doesn’t have a thick handle along most of the hook’s length.

The single greatest difference between the “Afghan Stitch” of the 1960’s-70’s and the breezy Tunisian crochet of today may be the new larger Tunisian crochet hooks on the market (above size K/6.5mm). I rely on them heavily when designing fashionable Tunisian with softly draping yarns.

Tunisian Crochet and Yarn

I find that many crocheters and knitters who encountered the “Afghan crochet” of the 1960’s-‘70s strongly associate it with yarns for making the dense blankets and car coats in vogue back then. Usually a worsted weight acrylic or wool yarn was crocheted with an “afghan hook” smaller than a size I tend to use. (I usually start with a size K/6.5mm hook for medium weight yarns and then go up or down hook sizes from there.) This kind of Tunisian is still great for afghans and structured jackets if not worked too tightly.

The pink silk vest pictured below features the same basic Tunisian Simple Stitch used for thick afghans for decades. I used a large hook size. There was no “Tunisian curl” (Tunisian crochet doesn’t lie flat when it’s crocheted tightly or with stiffer yarns).

Tunisian Simple Stitch and Beyond

Like many crocheters, I was perfectly content knowing one Tunisian stitch–for decades! Tunisian is best known for its versatile basic stitch, called Tunisian Simple Stitch (a.k.a. “Afghan Stitch” and is abbreviated Tss in patterns).

This stitch may be even easier to learn than the basic Single Crochet of regular crochet. With its unique and appealing woven appearance it looks good in any yarn. Simply changing the hook size, or the yarn’s fiber content or plying, or alternating yarn colors every row or so, can give an entirely fresh look.
