FREE TUNISIAN CROCHET PATTERN

I love the sweet touch this hair ribbon adds to my messy buns or keeping my hair out of my eyes. It’s versatile, and even better, it’s a quick stash busting pattern with no Tunisian hook required!

This is essentially the product of me learning the Tunisian Lace Stitch. Using the soft Super Fine (1) Loops & Threads Woolike from Michael’s with a larger hook (6.00mm/J-10) you get a light and lacy ribbon for adding a feminine touch to your ensemble. The other beautiful thing about this fast pattern is that it doesn’t have to be perfect, so it’s great practice with something usable as the end result. Don’t you just love that?

Even if you are new to Tunisian crochet I highly recommend you give it a try! It is a whole new world of possibilities!
