Today we have a special treat for you!!! We have a friend of mine and an amazing talented woman. Tanya from HodgePodge Crochet!!! When I first started REALLY following other crochet sites on Facebook, she was one of the first pages I started to follow. I have loved her work since day one. I was so pleased when she asked if I wanted to do a guest blogger swap I was doing my happy dance. So with out further ado I would like to introduce..............
My name is Tanya and I began crocheting as a young child. I never
really had a passion for it but I would marvel over the freehand dolls my
mother would create every Christmas, seemingly out of thin air. She didn’t
follow a pattern or know what the stitches she used were called. She simply did
what she loved and every year I delighted as the small army of dolls
she crafted made their way out of our house and into the arms of her eager
customers!
These days, her crochet style would be considered freeform by die-hards
of the craft and I’m proud to say that HodgePodge Crochet (http://hodgepodgecrochet.wordpress.com)
was born out of that organic beginning.
Over the years, I’ve spent a lot of time learning and mastering new
techniques and building upon my own hodgepodge style to come up with something
that represents the crocheter I’ve become. I feel that my style is reflected in
every stitch of the patterns I put out. HodgePodge Crochet has become my
passion—it defines my very lifestyle—and I mean that quite literally. My blog
embodies that journey, and the response from those who read it, or come in to
find something new, is what inspires me to write the next amazing pattern.
Ever since I started crocheting, I’ve been drawn to overly textured looks. You
can see examples of that with my Diamond Mermaid Cocoon (http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/crocheting/other/diamond-mermaid-cocoon-photo-prop/13240)
So it seems fitting that I’d do a tutorial on one of my favorites, the
tunisian treble crochet stitch.
HOW TO WORK TUNISIAN TREBLE CROCHET
Ttc:
Tunisian treble crochet: Forward: Yarn over twice, insert hook—from
right to left—into front vertical bar of next st, yarn over and pull up a loop
through st, [yarn over and pull through 2 loops] twice, leaving last loop on
hook.
Return:
Yarn over, pull through 1 loop on hook, *yarn over, pull through 2
loops on hook, repeat from * to end.
