Elmore Blanket Kit: Learn Tunisian Crochet

Ready to start learning Tunisian crochet? This blanket pattern is suitable for crafters who haven't tried this fascinating technique before. You don't even need any fancy tools - a regular crochet hook will do and Toni Lipsey's blog post for Elmore has links to instructional videos to get you started. After watching her three videos, you'll have the confidence and know-how to make the blanket.

Techniques used in the pattern include:

• Tunisian simple stitch
• Tunisian honeycomb stitch
• Casting on, binding off, and finishing

More experienced Tunisian crocheters will also enjoy the simplicity of this blanket pattern.

We've put together a selection of yarn kits in 60% bamboo 40% cotton Fiddlesticks Cedar which comes in a range of delicious colours, from pastels to intense brights. Bamboo is a lovely and practical choice for summer due to its breathability and easy care, and the cotton adds softness and stability.

The pattern is not included but a free download can be found on Toni Lipsey's blog, or the paid pdf version on Ravelry.

Your blanket will look wonderful and maintain its softness for wash after wash, making it perfect for babies and young children.
