About the Inspiration for this Crochet Animal Scarf Pattern:
My inspiration comes from winter-themed children’s clothes which usually have a polar bear on them. The moment I saw the Caron Latte Cake and Lion Brand Go For Faux yarn together in these colors, I knew they would pair perfectly for a winter crochet child scarf pattern! I tried a few different safety eyes and a nose that just didn’t look right so then I decided embroidery was the way to go! I’m very happy with the way this Tunisian crochet pattern turned out. The Lattice Stitch is becoming one of my favorite Tunisian crochet stitches (after Honeycomb of course!)

If you’re looking for a fun crochet skirt pattern to work on, I have just the pattern for you! I created this skirt with some left-over yarn I had. I intended it to be a simple color block skirt so the only stitch used is the Tunisian simple stitch for the skirt itself. Then I decided it would be nice to have some ribbing at the top for a drawstring closure. Before I finished up the skirt, I had an idea to add some textured afterthought pockets and I think that is my favorite part of the design! The Tunisian honeycomb stitch is my absolute favorite of all the Tunisian crochet stitches. I also added some picot edging to add a touch of fancy.
I love that this skirt can be dressed up or down and can be made in any color combination! The best part is that this pattern is easy enough that it can be completed by people who are just getting started with Tunisian crochet!

This is a scarf that I started during Ramadan with the intention of donating and it fits perfectly with the Crochet for a Cause theme. Crochet for a Cause is an event hosted by Ashley of Edythblayn where every Monday two scarf/hat patterns are released and the pattern PDFs are available for free throughout the week. This event will run throughout summer so you can grab all of the patterns and get some good charity crochet in! The goal is to have a good pile of handmade goodies ready to donate at the end of summer!
This week my Tunisian Giving Scarf pattern is the featured pattern – where you can get the pattern PDF for FREE from June 29th to July 5th, 2020 (11:59pm EST)!

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.
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.
About the Tunisian Honeycomb Stitch:
If you have never tried the Tunisian crochet honeycomb stitch, you’re in for a treat! This stitch is my favorite of all the Tunisian crochet stitches because it looks good on just about any weight and type of yarn! I have a video tutorial taking you through how to do it here.
Abbreviations:
Ch – Chain Tss – Tunisian Simple Stitch Tps – Tunisian Purl Stitch
22 sts over 15 rows for a 4 x 4 in. square in Honeycomb Stitch
This pattern is for a reversible one-skein textured Tunisian crochet infinity scarf. It’s the perfect mindless project to practice Tunisian crochet and learn a new stitch!
This pattern uses a few Tunisian crochet techniques. Use the following video tutorials as needed:
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.

This scarf would make the perfect #makefoyoself project. What is #makefoyoself you ask? Continue reading to find out!
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. This is when I came up with my hashtag #makefoyoself which encourages fellow makers to take a breather and make a mindless project just for themselves. You can check out the hashtag by clicking below! The project doesn’t necessarily have to be a project for yourself, it can be an item you’re making for donation too. The Tunisian Giving Scarf is a great first project to start with since it’s an easy crochet pattern and works up super fast!
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 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!

This is a beginner level Tunisian crochet pattern that you can complete in a few hours. The pattern uses bulky yarn and works up super quick and makes for a perfect gift for the little ones in your life. You can make it with Bernat Blanket yarn and Lion Brand Yarn Go For Faux.
Initially, I made this bunny with Michael’s Sweet Snuggles yarn which is a super soft and squishy yarn. I liked the overall look but found it to be a bit bulky and the yarn is not easily accessible. It would also require a larger hook.
I decided to try it with Bernat Blanket yarn since Bernat blanket is a more accessible and readily available yarn and I love how it turned out! The finished bunny measures 18 inches from ears to feet and 10 inches across from one arm to the other arm.
I have divided the following steps into three parts in videos I have uploaded to YouTube.
Make the face and embroider with size 4 worsted weight yarn in a contrasting color.
Continue making the neck and body.
Continue making a mirror image of the neck and body (so it will be one long piece that will be folded over and sewn while stuffing with polyfill).
Make legs with the Bernat Blanket yarn.
Crochet arms and sew onto the body.
Work ears and weave in all ends!
You will learn how to:
-Tunisian crochet foundation row and Tunisian Simple Stitch -Increase stitches in Tunisian crochet -Decrease stitches in Tunisian crochet -Embroider a face onto a crochet project -Make a pom pom -Make a magic circle and crochet in rounds
Join me for this fun 3-part crochet bunny series! It’s the perfect chance to practice some Tunisian crochet stitches! If you like this pattern, you may enjoy some of my other Tunisian crochet patterns – Tunisian Samplerpillar or the Creamsicle Crochet Baby Blanket pattern.
