@Jameson Vincent thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I am a life-long hardcore knitter (63 years old) and have just accidentally 'discovered' Tunisian crochet while searching for knitting patterns. Naturally, wanting to know more, I searched KZread and found your amazing channel. You immediately became my go-to person for instruction in this delightful craft. I am currently binge-watching all the videos on your excellent site and have to say, Great job in explaining everything so clearly and thoroughly. Many, many thanks!

I made this with the Caron one pound. You can get them as low as 3.99 and it's way more yarn than these.
OMG...beautiful blanket! And not just that, that was probably the BEST explanation of color changes and visual video I have seen to date on Tunisian crochet. I have looked for an explanation of color changes and weaving in the ends on different sites with no visual explanation. I taught myself to crochet and now I really want to learn to do Tunisian crochet. Oh yeah...subscribed! And I have to agree with many people in the comments...you have a wonderful teaching voice and you take it slow. Fantastic! If I could rate you it would be an A++++! Great job!

Thanks Toni! I am starting this again. My phone is back with you, and your voice. How nice! Still working on the "bumps"!
Hands down the best Tunisian crochet instructional videos on KZread!! Thank you ❤
You are AWESOME and should have be a school teacher! I've been crocheting 50 years and just discovered Tunisian. You show the little things (like making the yarn taught for no holes) and everything works. Thank you for the free tutorial. I am a widow and want to make my newest grandson a picnic type blanket for the shade. This is the exact pattern I wanted. I am now a dedicated subscriber! God bless!
Off this video alone and your perfect, simple guidance, I was able to make this full blanket for my son! He's due in 3 weeks. I practically used the same color scheme but used blue heather and navy. Thank you for this video!

I love, love, love that he is crocheting. My late husband loved that I knit and crochet and bragged on me, but wouldnt try to do it. My new husband is willing to try anything. He is a great carpenter and remodels houses, but anything else I want him to try with me, he jumps right in. It makes this hobby more fun for me. Kudos to Jacob. I'm using you as an example of what my husband can do if he tries.
I keep the yarn from tangling by placing each ball in a small ziplock style bag and then lining them up in a box. When you do the forward pass they will untangle and when you do the reverse pass they cross over. Also, by putting them in the ziplock baggies I am easily able to move my project around without the balls unwinding all over the place. I purchased the baggies at a local Dollar Tree. I learned that trick while working on much larger lap afghan projects.

That is a great tip. Thank you
After watching several of your Tunisian crochet videos. I took a free image off the internet of a Ninja Turtle! I opened Excel and made the columns and rows look like graph paper. Then I converted the image into a colored pattern. I am making a blanket for my granddaughter for Christmas. Can I just say I have been knitting for 50 of my 66 years! I am lefthanded and knit and crochet righthanded . It was just easier. I L.O.V.E. the tunisian crochet for blankets!! It is wonderful. I would love to send you a picture, but I don't know how!
Tony you are an awesome woman, a wonderful teacher, patient, always smiling, love you sister
Your voice is super calming! I also love every video of yours that I watch.

This was my first time understanding Tunisian crochet. You are the only one who makes this easier to follow and I can so do this. Love your channel and all your fabulous teaching abilities.

Hey I'm so new to this Tunisian crochet pattern. And I think you so much for the help.
I love this border paired with the gingham! It really ties it al together and polishes it off beautifully. And the pom poms are adorable!
You make this look so easy! I have been wanting to try Tunisian for a quite awhile now. Your a great teacher! Thank you for sharing your talents!
That was a lovely tutorial. From scratch to finish without assuming your audience’s crochet knowledge. Can’t wait to start!!
Thank you for your work on this!! The blanket is so beautiful, I can't wait to work on this!

I love this video! Great presentation, organization and explanation...and your creation is beautiful.
You are such a wonderful teacher! I have such a difficult time ending the row and looking for the last stitch to get both parts. You just made it very easy! Thank YOU!!!!
Wonderful and the colors so lovely
I love listening to you. Great instructions!
I'm so in awe of this crochet. It's like combining knitting and crochet. I have to give it a try. I'm getting a hook and practice yarn today.
I could say a thousand words, but none are as good as to just say Thank You!!
The mini tutorial on blocking is pricesless! Thanks for including it. ❤️
Beautiful work. Thank you for teaching me this craft! Your positive attitude is so inspirational. I hope you continue with these tutorials as you are a natural teacher!
So beautiful. Thank you!! Your tutorial looks so easy. I can't wait to try this!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for.
You make it so easy to see what you're doing and top it off with clear, concise directions. Thank you very much. 😄 It's people like you who taught me how to spin, knit, and weave. Rock on!
Thank you so much! This is the best "how to" video I have ever seen. Your instructions are crystal clear and your demonstrations presented extremely well. Also there is no unnecessary chit chat. You are a great teacher. God bless.
I have never seen color change done in this manner, I have to say this is a great way of doing color change specially in a project like this one, Thanks for this tutorial and making your instruction easy to follow.
That is so cool, what a great tip with the steamer! Thanks so much for posting this.
You make this look so easy. I love your calm melodic voice. Thank you for showing how this is done.
Thankyou for this video your the first person i see doing a blanket
I'm new to Tunisian crochet and watched your beginner video--I'm totally hooked now! love that you stopped the video to get a fresh cup of coffee😂

This is the old Afghan stitch that was out years ago and I made a poinsettia christ.as blanket out of it and oh man it took me forever cause there were granny square squares in the adjacent columns. Then cross stitching on the afghan stitching. It is a very nice stitch to use and work with. If you want the pattern to it just throw me a pm and I'll find it and send it to you. It's about 15 to 20 yrs old
Absolutely stunning blanket. I'm so in love with Tunisian crotchet. It's such a beautiful stitch. Thank you. I'll be sure to try this out 💜
You’re just my favorite crochet helper!
I love love love this pattern. I knew I could count on you to make it possible. I'm starting to make baby items for my great grandchild. Once again thanks for being here. God Bless
thank you so much for showing this pattern so calmly and friendly. Your voice is awesome peaceful, none of catching for attention. Just lovely and also is the result of your work! Just great!
You do such a great job demonstrating everything. Thank you for the great video, and keep them coming.
This is so beautiful. You give a perfect easy to follow video. Thank you.
Amazing instructional video. Great job at simplifying the directions. So easy to follow. Thank you so much. Can't wait to make it.
Absolutely WONDERFUL tutorial!! Thank you!! I can't wait to get started on this blanket.
This is absolutely gorgeous!!!! Stunning work! Thank you so much for this super helpful tutorial
What a wonderful teacher you are Toni. This project is beautiful and you make it so easy to follow along. Love you easy, relaxed style. Thanks for all your expert teaching. Keep up the great work.
How pretty! You make it look easy. Thanks for showing all the short cuts, and no glue. The colors go so well Tog.
I can’t wait to start mine. Planning on doing a dark green gingham... or greyscale... I’ll have to think about my colors Bc it’s so hard to pick one right now. After I come back from vacation next week... I’m starting right away! Thank you for such a sweet pattern.

Thanks!!!!!!!!l.......For being to the point and not rambling on. Really easy to follow your instructions. Keep doing what your doing because many talk about too many other issues while your trying to get the pattern and stitches down and you get lost and have to keep going back to what you forgot. LOVED THIS ONE.
The best tension I've ever seen. Cleanest seams and joins too. Excellent work
