Find out how to use Tunisian crochet to create knit-look lace and cables. In this advanced beginner-level crochet class, Tunisian expert Kim Guzman builds upon the basic Tunisian stitches by adding easy-to-learn cables and lace stitches. Kim's thorough and relaxing instructional style will give you confidence to learn these beautiful stitches while crocheting three pretty projects.

This online video crochet class begins with a description of Tunisian crochet, and demonstrates how to open and close stitches and the similarity to standard crochet. You'll learn about the different Tunisian hooks used and how to hold them, and get a step-by-step of chain and an anatomy of stitches.

You will also learn how to crochet a basic lace stitch and will be on your way to crocheting the beautiful Tri-Lace Scarf, the perfect introductory Tunisian lace project that is a stepping stone for learning additional skills. With the delicate Tri-Lace Shawlette project, you will expand upon the same tri-lace stitch pattern but with the addition of working short rows to form the unique shaping. This gives you a chance to make a true lace project that you'll also love wearing to display your newly-discovered skills.

Finally, Kim will teach you how to work cables in Tunisian crochet, providing several different methods of crossing the stitches to form the cable. The versatile Laced Cables Wrap pattern can also be used to make a scarf, shawl, baby blanket and throw. Pattern options for these are included with the crochet class.

This class is definitely worth it. I am an experienced knitter and crocheter and I knew a few things about Tunisian crochet. This class is not absolute beginners -- you need to know some basics. Beyond that, however, I enjoyed learning this new stitches, and the video showed off its versatility. Tunisian crochet does require you to master some new skills and language and written instructions aren't coherent unless you know this. Here, Kim does an excellent job of going through the stitches, and I felt like she definitely reinforced my understanding of this stitch and of Tunisian crochet overall.

As for the price, get over it. Outside of my career, fiber arts is my passion. Its definitely my happy place, and no one said that making it yourself was the cheapest way to go.

I watched the review and I love it. I just got my materials and I will start on this in about a week or two. Just finishing up on some other class work.

I watched the class but did not do anything yet. I can't seem to find the hook I need for the class. Any ideas where to find it?

I really loved this class! I am familiar with the basic Tunisian stitches but I wanted to improve my technique and expand my Tunisian crochet skills and Kim did not disappoint me with her excellent teaching. I found the lace stitch pattern tricky and the cables trickier still but feel I have now mastered both and am confident to tackle more advanced Tunisian patterns. I have been crocheting for xx years and have done online courses which have been enjoyable but I haven't actually learnt much from them. This course was enjoyable and I have learnt a lot! I would highly recommend it.

I got this class at 50% off and it was overpriced at that. Not that Kim isn't a good instructor - she's one of my favorites - but the content of the class was just not worth $XX or even $XX. I've taken several Cxxxxxy classes and they were all very good, so I was terribly disappointed in this class. Only ONE lace st was shown and only ONE cable st was shown. I don't believe that having the same project in different widths makes for more than one project. Lace scarf and same lace shawl = ONE project IMO. Four different widths of cable panels = ONE project IMO.

Save your money and learn lace and cables on YouTube.
