Book Feature: The New Tunisian Crochet

We love Tunisian crochet--a great technique that uses a crochet hook to create fabrics that sometimes look woven or even knitted--so when designer Dora Ohrenstein's new book, The New Tunisian Crochet, came out from Interweave Press, we were so excited to see that she had created several designs using Lion Brand yarns.

We were even more excited to bring you one of these patterns for FREE: the Natalia Scarf. This beautiful colorblock design features our LB Collection Angora Merino yarn.
