#needleworkmonday : new yarn and an infinity scarf using the Tunisian crochet knit stitch - 031218

I have been really busy doing lots of driving and visiting @tinygalaxy in Swansea and then driving to and from Llandovery... It's not been very needlework-friendly in the dark ...

So I was over the moon when @pennsif bought me some treats to cheer me up. Here's one of the presents :


That's right, no worries ! It's only 100% acrylic, but as soon as I saw that ball of loveliness I thought the best course of action was to just find 'googly eyes'... I now need to find a pattern for it although I'm tempted just to stick the eyes on :D

I have also been making a scarf for @jen0revision. She likes this yarn and stitch to have an infinity scarf.

I was testing the Tunisian knit stitch because the sides lie flat. The piece does roll a lot hence the crochet hooks on the sides keeping it taught for the photo. For the infinity scarf I will just sew the ends together.


When you have picked up all the stitches, it looks like this :

I need to get a longer hook at some point :D

The clearest video I can recommend if you would like to try this stitch is the Crochet Crowd.

Thanks for reading !
