About
Tapestry crochet is similar to regular crochet, except that one or more yarns are carried while another is crocheted. The colors are usually switched before completing the stitch. The finished pieces look woven instead of crocheted. I prefer to use the single crochet stitch, but other stitches may also be used.
This blog is “. . . the rest of the story” – tapestry crochet history, variations of the technique around world, artist profiles, conferences, design, and whatever else I discover!
I’m sorry to say that I cannot lend you my sweater, but your event sounds very interesting!
I found this picture online (http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/scrunchies-5) I would love love love to make these but I can’t find a pattern. Is there any way to share one? These are beautiful!
These are in my More Tapestry Crochet book. The original is out of print, but this “Kindle” book is now available in digital form at Amazon.com.
Are you planning to attend CGOA 2020 conference in New Orleans? Im excited to learn how to make a hat using the slip stitch you learned in Morocco.
Please call me.

So sorry, but I won’t be able to make the CGOA 2020 conference.
I am familiar with your books but have not come across this blog before. It is fascinating! I got hooked on crochet and making my own patterns as a child (1950s) and there is always something new to learn, or create! I hope you will keep adding to this blog, the history is interesting and inspiring.
