A “must have” book for beginner to advanced level crocheters!

Full disclosure: I teach crochet, and I test crochet patterns for Lori. I have tested several of the wonderful patterns in her new book (Wanderlust Scarf, Wandering Path Scarf, Trailblazer Shawl, Treeline Hat, and Intrepid Capelet), and I promise they are original, well written, easy to understand, and jam-packed with learning. A lovely variety of project types that will inspire! “Exploring TC” is aimed at intermediate and advanced level crocheters, but includes all the basics to get a crocheter new to Tunisian Crochet started, including several Beginner and Easy patterns to launch your TC adventure. A full third of the book is dedicated to techniques and tutorials, with detailed explanations and wonderfully clear photos to help you master all the skills you’ll need for these patterns and more. Tutorials are written from a right-handed perspective, but include pertinent tips and photos for lefties. Techniques covered include colorwork, joining and seaming, increase and decrease methods, conquering the curl, modifying basic stitches, creating cables, working in the round, and lots of other tips for excellence in your project. This book is the “full package”, as they say.
