Crochet Bonding Squares – Free Tunisian Crochet Pattern

Here is a FREE pattern for a set of Tunisian crochet bonding squares. It’s a mindless crochet charity project to practice Tunisian crochet!

Pin this crochet pattern for baby bonding squares and make later

Have you ever heard of crochet bonding squares? It’s such a heartwarming concept. Crochet baby bonding squares help increase bonding between a mother and her premature baby since they can’t do skin to skin contact. One square is given to the mom and one square is given to the baby and they’re switched back and forth to help the baby and mother get familiar with each other.

Here I have a Free Tunisian crochet bonding squares pattern – the Sleepy Bye Bonding Squares. I designed these squares for a fun blog event organized by my friend. The Preemie Crochet Challenge is taking place over on the Sunflower Cottage Crochet Too Blog where a new Preemie design is shared for free every day (some designs are free for longer). The Sleepy Bye Bonding Squares pattern PDF is free for the whole week since this is such a great cause!

This post contains Amazon Affiliate links for which I will get a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Each download from Ravelry is a pledge to make at least one of that item to donate to a NICU or similar in November for Preemie Awareness Month. One pattern will be featured each day on the SunflowerCottageCrochet.com blog.

Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set Review for Knit Picks

Check out the review of the Knit Picks Radiant Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set -  portable, affordable, and perfect for your next project!

This blog post review for the Radiant Wood Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set is sponsored by We Crochet Official & Knit Picks.

This blog post contains affiliate links for which I will get a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Recently, I started seeing a lot of these beautiful rainbow wood crochet hooks on my friends’ Instagram feeds so I decided to give them a try myself. We Crochet Official/Knit Picks sent this crochet hook set to me so I could try it out and give my followers an honest review (thanks We Crochet friends!). Follow along as I take you through what this Knit Picks Tunisian Crochet Hook Set includes and how I feel about it!

What’s Inside?

The complete crochet hook set comes with the following components:

  • Radiant Interchangeable Crochet Hooks (6 in. in length) (8 total) – E-4 (3.5mm), F-5 (3.75mm), G-6 (4.0mm), 7 (4.5mm), H-8 (5.0mm), I-9 (5.5mm), J-10 (6.0mm), and K-10.5 (6.5 mm)
  • Sturdy Black Cables 4 total – 2 each of 21″ and 29″ lengths (crochet hook tip to end of cable)
  • Accessories: snapped clear vinyl case, 8 black end caps, and 2 cable keys

Important Features

My favorite part about these wooden crochet hooks is the smooth finish. The main component of these hooks is strong layers of laminated birch. I cannot get over how smooth they feel in my hand.

Check out the review of the Knit Picks Radiant Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set -  portable, affordable, and perfect for your next project!

There is even a thumb rest which allows a good grip when crocheting. I also love the weight of these hooks. They aren’t super lightweight but they aren’t super heavy either which is perfect for small and big projects!

The join is very smooth which means yarn will not snag on the hooks. The compact and portable case is perfect for on-the-go travel crochet! The end caps are high quality and the cable keys ensure a snug fit. This ensures that the cable and end caps don’t come undone while you’re crocheting. I highly recommend using the cable keys for screwing and unscrewing the cables and end caps. The cables are very flexible but also thick and sturdy which makes them perfect for heavier projects like shawls and blankets!

One thing that is a little bit different for me, especially as a Tunisian crocheter, is the rounded head. I have a sharp head on my other Tunisian crochet hooks which makes it easy to pick up loops as I do my forward pass. With this set, picking up loops for the foundation row is kind of hard. But once I get beyond the foundation row, picking up stitches is a little bit easier. It’s still different from the sharp head crochet hooks but I think with practice I’ll get the hang of it! The rest of the features make up for this one difference though so I’m not complaining!

How do these work?

All you have to do is attach one of the interchangeable cables to the end of the Radiant Interchangeable Crochet Hook by screwing it in place. Next, attach the cable cap to the opposite end of the cable to keep your stitches securely on the cable. You can mix and match a large range of interchangeable hook sizes with cables available in 21″ all the way up through 57″. This means you can create projects ranging from scarves to garments and blankets.

Systemic Injustice and Systemic Racism Against the Black Community

There is great injustice happening against the Black community all over the US. Overt systemic injustice examples include police brutality, wrongful incarceration, and lynchings. There are also more subtle forms of systemic injustice such as food deserts/ lack of access to healthy foods in and around Black communities, and lack of health insurance making the Black community disproportionately affected by health disparities.

In this post, I take you through some data and visual aids to show you what systemic injustice looks like in the US, my own personal reflections and perspectives, what actions can be taken to fight against this injustice. I also feature some of my favorite Black crocheters and Black designers and finally share a free Tunisian crochet pattern that I came up with inspired by the concept of standing in the gap (which I’ll explain later).

Below are some powerful words inspired by the current situation by a mother of Black children from a Muslim mom group I am a part of:

SYSTEMIC INJUSTICE EXPLAINED – THE DATA

I’ve shared some infographics below that visually represent these issues to create awareness starting with police brutality and wrongful incarceration.

Black individuals are more likely to be fatally shot by police than White individuals.

Black workers have historically earned far less than White workers. There is still a significant wage gap between Black and White American workers.

“Gentrification is a process of changing the character of a neighborhood through the influx of more affluent residents and businesses.” This has led to the displacement of the Black community.

“Cities with the highest levels of black displacement between 2000 and 2010 were concentrated in the South, with nine out of 16 cities with high levels of black displacement located there. Richmond, Charlottesville, Washington, D.C., and New Orleans had the highest percentages of black displacement at the tract level.”

Health Disparities in the Black Community

Black women are significantly more likely to die from a pregnancy-related death when compared with White women regardless of age.

Young African Americans are living with diseases more common at older ages.

African Americans ages 18-49 are 2 times as likely to die from heart disease than whites.

African Americans ages 35-64 years are 50% more likely to have high blood pressure than whites.

Chronic diseases and some of their risk factors may be silent or not diagnosed during these early years. Health differences are often due to economic and social conditions that are more common among African Americans than whites. For example, African American adults are more likely to report they cannot see a doctor because of cost.

*It should be noted that a lot of these risk factors are associated with socioeconomic issues including food deserts and lack of health insurance. These issues are usually a result of policies at the broader level that put the Black community at a disadvantage.

Black Americans were nearly twice as likely as their white neighbors to lack health insurance as recently as 2018.

Source: https://www.businessinsider.com/us-systemic-racism-in-charts-graphs-data-2020-6

A food desert is an area that has limited access to affordable and nutritious food (i.e. supermarkets and grocery stores are far, fast food and convenience stores are the main sources of food).

Food Deserts are more prevalent in the Black community. This leads to food-related health issues such as obesity and other metabolic chronic illnesses.

Source: https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200411/expert-food-deserts-in-black-communities-partly-explain-coronavirus-vulnerability

Wherever possible, we should try to advocate for socio-economic changes at the policy level to help alleviate some of these health disparities and ensure a better future for the Black community.

Do the research and find out what you can do in your own local community to bring about change whether it’s making a donation or volunteering and working directly with community organizations.

REFLECTIONS AND PERSPECTIVE: Reflecting and Checking my Own Biases

For the past month, I’ve been having an internal dialogue. I’ve been reflecting on how events in my life and my perspective have impacted the larger picture of the systemic injustice my Black brothers and sisters experience.

This is hard for me to admit and to say openly but it needs to be said.
Our South Asian communities have wronged the Black community for generations. I grew up with the stereotype that I should be fearful of Black people because they are aggressive and dangerous. This was reinforced by the media. I also grew up thinking dark skin color meant you were less beautiful/less worthy of love. At that time I didn’t know right from wrong. On the other extreme, I also engaged in cultural appropriation during my high school years because that’s what all the cool kids did. Dressing in baggy clothes and saying things like “that’s so ghetto” “I’m so gangsta” etc.
As I grew up I learned the difference between right and wrong. I learned to love and appreciate my Black friends and their uniqueness and stopped engaging in cultural appropriation.

This is my point. Racism is learned, not something you are born with, but something you learn from your family, your environment, the type of news you follow, and the media you consume.

As a South Asian mom, I want to say it loudly and clearly that my son will not follow this stereotype. I will teach him to love and treat fairly people from the Black community. I will assist in breaking the cycle of racism one step at a time even if it means getting uncomfortable and creating a dialogue about things that may be difficult to talk about.

BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT

The Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement aims to eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes.

Stand in the Gap Meaning

Standing in the gap means that you are ready to intervene anytime you see injustice happening in any way. In my wise friend Nkese’s words:

SPEAK UP, WRITE LETTERS, SIGN PETITIONS, VOTE, CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK and REACT. In other words…STAND IN THE GAP people!! STAND👏🏾IN👏🏾THE👏🏾GAP!

-Nkese creator of Cosmic Crochet Creations

I was inspired by this concept and came up with a visual reminder for myself and for others. My latest design is a FREE Tunisian crochet pattern for a wall hanging with a visual reminder to stand in the gap inspired by BLM and the systemic injustice happening every day!

Materials:

For this Tunisian crochet spin on a crochet infinity scarf, I used hand-dyed yarn from Fatima of Aquarius Make in this gorgeous variegated colorway with beautiful neutrals. Fatima is an amazing indie yarn dyer and she has a shop update and sale going on right now, make sure to go check her shop out below.

For this pattern, I used one cake of light 3 DK weight yarn, 75% Superwash Merino Wool and 25% Nylon approximately 246 yards.

Shop hand-dyed yarn at Aquarius Make

You will need a 5.0 mm Tunisian crochet hook or a 5.0 mm straight crochet hook that is at least 6 in. in length. I got creative and used my Clover knitting needlepoint protector as a stopper to turn it into a straight hook. You can check out my full review of the Clover Takumi Interchangeable Tunisian crochet hook set here.

    • Always Tunisian simple stitch in the last st of the row, being sure to work under both loops of the st.
  • Return Pass: Follow the foundation row and each row with the Return Pass in the same color unless a color change is needed.

Pattern Instructions:

Ch 30 
Row 1 (Foundation Row): Pick up a loop in the back bump of each chain. Complete normal RetP. (30 sts) 
Row 2: (Tss, Tps)* Rep * across. (30 sts)
Row 3: (Tps, Tss)* Rep * across. (30 sts)

This is what the pattern repeat should look like after a few rows:

Continue repeat till you’ve reached your desired length. For the scarf pictured, the total length was 32 inches (16 in. doubled/after looping). It could easily be doubled over as a cowl as seen below.

Bind off and do not cut, keep remaining yarn as a tail. Fold scarf in half, align stitches, and whip stitch ends together or join using your preferred method of seaming to form a loop. Weave in ends as neatly as possible and cut yarn.

A couple of years ago, I really felt burnt out by constantly making things for others and for my business and needed a project just for myself to slow down and enjoy the craft again.

If you’re looking for a fun crochet wall hanging or crochet wall decor ideas, check out this fun new Tunisian crochet and cross stitch pattern!

The inspiration behind this crochet wall art comes from those rain showers that happen in the midst of sunshine. I find those kinds of rain showers so peaceful and full of hope. Lately, I have been wanting to create modern crochet home decor pieces with kids in mind. This wall hanging is the perfect cheerful kid-friendly twist on modern wall art. Although I usually focus on Tunisian crochet colorwork, this cross stitch technique is a refreshing alternative for this piece and I really enjoy this mindless quick project!

It’s the season for summer crochet patterns and the Sun Showers Wall Hanging fits in perfectly! The Tunisian crochet stitches create a wonderful grid for cross stitch patterns! I recently uploaded a tutorial on YouTube for how to cross stitch on Tunisian crochet in anticipation of this pattern release! Check it out below!

I actually learned how to cross-stitch when I was in Grade 7 but after a while, I lost interest due to the small stitches. Recently, I watched Toni from TLYarncrafts do the exact same thing but with yarn. I became intrigued and decided to give it a try myself. Obsessed is the accurate word here!

I hope you love this Tunisian crochet + cross stitch crochet wall hanging pattern as much as I do. It would look perfect as a crochet baby wall hanging if you are looking for some crochet nursery decor ideas.

My first crochet table runner pattern is LIVE! If you are looking for modern crochet table runner patterns for beginners, you are in the right place! This is my first crochet for kitchen design. The set comes complete with a crochet table runner in two sizes and a crochet kitchen towel pattern.

This post may contain Amazon Affiliate and Happily Hooked Magazine Affiliate links for which I may get a small commission at no extra cost to you.

My Tunisian Honeycomb Kitchen Set design is officially published In this month’s @happilyhookedmagazine issue which is centered around housewarming gift designs! It is a super fun Tunisian crochet mindless make and you end up with a gorgeous set for your home! I also incorporated a bit of twine for a farmhouse touch! It has been hard keeping this one a secret because I loved how it turned out. It is made with a Size M/13 9 mm hook with a 12 in. cord (check out my favorite hook set here) and Bernat Maker Home Decor Yarn.⁣ Of all the tunisian crochet stitches, I LOVE the honeycomb stitch because it looks good on any type of yarn and color and is full of texture! Another thing is that the honeycomb stitch doesn’t cause curling like the Tunisian simple stitch does.

This crochet table runner was inspired by a gift idea I had for my mom last year! She needed a runner to cover the top of a new cabinet she got for the kitchen so she could place items on top without it getting dirty. So I thought I’d crochet a cover for her. The cover idea turned into this beautiful table runner and I couldn’t be happier!
