SPECIAL STITCHES

Foundation Slip Stitch:
- First Stitch: Ch 1, insert hook into back ridge of chain, yarn over and pull up loop (2 loops on hook), yarn over and draw through 1 loop on hook (creates chain), draw through next loop on hook (creates slip stitch).
- Next Stitch: Insert hook into chain just created (vertical bar furthest from hook), yarn over and pull up a loop (2 loops on hook), yarn over and draw through both loops on hook (first loop creates chain, second creates slip stitch)
Spike Stitch: Insert hook into front vertical bar and front horizontal bar at the same time of indicated stitch 2 rows below, yarn over from behind and pull up a loop, yarn over and draw through 1 loop on hook. (This creates a long “v” over the previous rows. You can make it as long or short as you like.)
Tunisian Simple Stitch (TSS): Insert hook from right to left into front vertical bar of next st, yarn over and pull up a loop.
Tunisian Purl Stitch (TPS): Move yarn to front of work, insert hook from right to left into front vertical bar of next st, yarn over from front and pull up a loop.
Tunisian Knit Stitch (TKS): Insert hook from front to back between front and back vertical bar of next st (under horizontal bars), yarn over and pull up a loop.
Tunisian Reverse Stitch (TRS): Insert hook from right to left into back vertical bar of next st on the wrong side (or back of work), yarn over and pull up a loop. This pushes the return pass to the front of the work creating a purl-like look.
“Work Loops off as normal” Yarn over and draw through 1 loop on hook, *yarn over, pull through 2 loops on hook; repeat from * to end.
Tunisian Simple Stitch Decrease (TSS dec): Insert hook from right to left into the front vertical bar of the next 2 sts at the same time, yarn over and pull up a loop
Tunisian Reverse Stitch Decrease (TRS dec): Insert hook from right to left into the back vertical bar of the next 2 sts at the same time, yarn over and pull up a loop
Single Crochet 2 Together Bind Off (sc2tog): Insert hook from right to left into the front vertical bar of the next 2 sts at the same time, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and draw through both loops on hook.

5 PM TUNISIAN CROCHET PLAY ????

Notes:

First loop on hook counts as a stitch. Alway skip the rightmost st on the edge.
If you do not enjoy working TRS or if you don’t like the look, you can do TSS for all TRS stitches throughout the pattern.
Change color when there are 2 loops left on your hook at the end of a row. Pattern has you carry your yarn up the side, it is up to you if you want to do this or cut and join the new color each time.
