I'm glad you're excited about Tunisian blanket bags! Tunisian crochet is a unique and beautiful technique that can create stunning textures and patterns. While I can't provide you with the entire knitting pattern, I can give you a basic idea of how you can create a Tunisian blanket bag.Materials you'll need:
- Tunisian crochet hook (size will depend on your yarn choice)
- Worsted weight yarn in your preferred colors
- Yarn needle for weaving in ends
- Optional lining fabric and sewing supplies for the bag's interior
- Begin by chaining the desired number of stitches to create the width of your bag.
- Follow the instructions for the foundation row of the Tunisian Simple Stitch (TSS) or any other Tunisian stitch pattern you prefer.
- Work your Tunisian stitches for the desired length of your bag, creating a large rectangular piece. You can use various Tunisian stitches like TSS, Tunisian Knit Stitch (TKS), or any other textured stitches to create a unique pattern.
- Once you have reached your desired length, fold the rectangular piece in half, aligning the short edges. This will create the front and back of your bag.
- Use the Tunisian Simple Stitch or a slip stitch to seam the sides of the bag together, leaving an opening at the top for the bag's mouth.
- Create two long Tunisian crochet straps or handles, which you can attach to the bag. These can be made in any desired width and length.
- Weave in any loose ends.
- If you want a lining for your bag, sew a fabric lining into the interior to add durability and finish the look.
