I don’t know if you all have seen the Pidge, a knitted neck scarf that sells for about $300!!! Anyway, I saw it and thought… that would look GREAT in Tunisian Crochet. I wasn’t about to spend a ton on pure cashmere but I did spend $14 on 2 skeins of LB Organic Cotton that is SO soft. I haven’t bought the buttons yet but I just couldn’t wait to post a pic.
I’m working on writing up the pattern. It took me some trial and error to figure out how to do button holes in Tunisian :lol
Hmm… I’ve been waiting a while to respond because I wasn’t really sure how you meant that comment. Is there a reason you say that it’s a PITY that it is crocheted? Just trying to figure out what you meant?
I’d love to have the pattern when you get it worked up- I’ve been thinking all afternoon now about tunisian crochet and button holes. “how DID she do that part?!”
I was thinking slip stitches, but I’ve never tried that in tunisian.
I love your version of the Pidge! I’d been thinking about the kind of yarn to make one, and tunisian crochet makes a very lovely one!!! Not sure what that other poster was on about, though, not your fault. I hope it was nothing, or I read it wrong or something. I’m off to check your blog! Thanks so much for sharing your pattern!! samm
Nicely done! And a nice project especially for Tunisian/afghan stitch–with the heavy rib on the backside it’s almost like having an extra layer of insulation. Ought to be nice and warm.
([I]Hmmmmmm…I ought to have some Lion Homepsum left over after the scarf for DS is done…and I love the Tunisian mock-knit stitch…Oh, Boy, a new project!)[/I]
