...This is how I finished without getting any gaps. <br />Fold the piece in half and have the finished (starting) edge in front facing you with the row on the Tunisian hook behind it.<br />With a regular size Q hook you're going to go through the starting chain edge (one stitch at a time) and pull a loop off of the Tunisian hook, bring the loop through the starting chain edge and once you have the first 2 loops on your regular hook you'll join it with a slip stitch. Repeat to the end, finish the last loop as you normally would with crochet. <br />Hope this makes sense! :)Knit 1 LAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05791013598088788662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-958761355182193346.post-48416650300433612532016-12-08T06:30:27.702-08:002016-12-08T06:30:27.702-08:00Great!

The stitch pattern is absolutely beautiful and it was a quick crochet. Total time from start to finish was about 3 hours (not counting the 3 times I had to frog it). I'm hooked on this method of crocheting. I see myself as a knitter and have always avoided crocheting because, to me, it just doesn't look as "polished" as knitting. However, Tunisian crochet is different. It looks like a cross between the 2 disciplines. I see that swing coat in my future.
