Beautiful Tunisian
Crochet Scarves
Ready to experiment with Tunisian crochet? I’ve curated a list of 15 fabulous and free Tunisian crochet scarf patterns to get you started.
Tunisian crochet offers a unique, textured look that’s beautiful and surprisingly easy to master. And scarves are the perfect way to dive into this technique. Their simple shape lets you focus on the stitches, and you can work on a narrow scarf with just a regular crochet hook with a straight shaft (as long as the stitches fit comfortably).
