THEME OF THE MONTH
Tunisian, Broomstick Lace and Hairpin Lace crochet
Tunisian crochet
uses a tricot hook which is similar to a standard
knitting needle with a hook rather than a point. Each row is made by placing
loops on the hook and then working them off again.
Broomstick crochet
(jiffy lace, peacock eye crochet) is worked using a crochet hook and a large
knitting needle.
Hairpin lace crochet
is worked in strips using a U frame (known as a
hairpin staple) and a crochet hook. The strips are then worked together to
create edges, doilies, garments, rugs and bags.
