@@chattye5549 hi 😊

@@Pouquiloury I hope it worked for you then. I will try to do better next time :) And yes, it IS an awesome stitch!

I'm glad it was helpful! :)

Lovely, that you like this! -- I checked the Chinese Waitress Cast On for knitters now. I'm not a knitter, but it does look very similar. Some of the videos include a lot of twisting and yarn between the hooks (needles). I wonder, if that is necessary when you knit?

Thx. My Spanish isn't good, I hope English works for you. I might make a video about increasing one day (and increasing at right side of the work too). There are more ways to do this and different stitch patterns work better with some methods. You can do an extra yarn-over og hook under the return pass (between stitches). Do this 1-2 stitches from the edge.

I would say a regular chain row IS somewhat stretchy. At the least if you make the first row of stitches in the back bump. The casting-on here has a similar stretchiness as a regular stretchy chain row. If you cast-on using ONE hook (see the video: Tunisian Cast On - Using one hook), and want it to be stretchy, then you need to watch your tension, so the loops under the hook stay loose.

Hi, Sometimes we can't get everything in one video. I do have another new video showing a bit more of the backside. Look for "Make the 'right' Waistcoat Stitch Version"

@@StoneGnome Thank you. That is helpful!! Do you find the stitches stack better when you don't include that back bar?

Hi @@joelleamaya7694, yes definitely! I'm certain we are talking about two versions of the same stitch. This is why I made the new video about the waistcoat stitch version I prefer. This week also published a half mitten pattern utilizing the stitch. It matters what waistcoat stitch version you use there. You get a comfy'er and lighter mitten if you use the waistcoat stitch that stacks better.

<3 Nice to be helpful! - You can cast on with one hook also. Look for the video 'Tunisian Cast on - using one hook'.

Hi Cindy, to not include the bar(s) at the back of a stitch, then insert the hook before the bar. If you are right-handed, this will be on the right side of the bar(s). If you are left-handed it will be on the left side of the bar(s). I hope this helps?

Hi Ruth, glad the video could help you :) Am I guessing right, you talk about Evie's hat? The stitch pattern will make the hat quite stretchy, so the hat circumference needs to be smaller than the head circumference. (see page 15) However, I used Scheepjes Merino Soft, which is very very stretchy. If you want to substitute it with a more rigid yarn, then YES, you can go up in size. (Or use a slightly larger hook). The brim pattern has a repeat using 3 stitches (multiple of 3). BUT, If you look closely at the chart and the final rounds, you will need TWO repeats for this. So, unless you want to wing a little different closure, start the brim with a multiple of 6. I hope this helps you. I'll consider updating the pattern to make this more clear. Thanks for asking! I'm happy to assist if you need more help. If possible, then email me (email address in the written pattern). Sometimes RUclips notifications don't reach me.

@@StoneGnome Thank you so much (and I'm sorry I didn't see your email address in the written pattern). You have exactly answered my question: the multiple is 6. This is perhaps the most beautiful crocheted hat I've ever seen. I'm excited to begin work on it. Again, thanks!

@@RuthHenriquez1 Happy to help! Thanks for the nice words. <3 I hope it works well for you.

♥️ awesome Shelley! Happy it worked that weel for you :) For some it is difficult, but for others this is an eye opener. There is just SO much crochet exploration waiting for us out there :D

Lovely Willow! Always glad to help out :)

Glad it helped!

Thank you. Do you like Tunisian crochet too? If you do, then there is something similar - but more advanced - in this video: ruclips.net/video/xHcwH6dNNO0/видео.html It might look a bit crazy at first :p

Hi LadybirD loves. I’m still here. I’ve just had busy days (months). I’ll add to my list to show more about this twisted stitch. You can join my maillist if you haven’t already, to be sure not to miss it. You find the signup for newsletters at www.stonegnome.com. :)

All good. Real life has to come 1st. I will work it out. Gotta finish it today :)

@@LadybirDloves Find me on Facebook If you like :)

@@LadybirDloves If I read it right, it is your closing off that is gappy? If so, try to do your last row as either slip stitches or single crochet stitches (what you prefer), with the little twist, that you hook into a stitch as you have done throughout the pattern. Your sides can get gappy too. If so I prefer to add a border.

...and if you already tried this :) then tryr to make your closing around the back pass (the chains) too. I found a site where Kim Guzman shows this - almost at the bottom: crochetkim.com/how-to-end-your-tunisian-crochet-binding-off/

Glad it helps you :)

Yes, it probably belongs to the group of provisional cast-ons that knitters have in their toolbox. It might be done a little different here. Not all types of cast-on work well for Tunisian crochet. So, it's more matter of finding a way that works for you and your Tunisian Crochet project.

I’m just happy you can use this!

I'm so glad I could help. <3 If you like slip stitches, then have a look at some of my latest designs. Tessa's Triangles (Hexagon pattern) gives you a free introduction to very new things you can use the slip stitches for.

@@StoneGnome ❤

You are welcome. I get you. It’s much faster this way. Both are good for samples too, so you don’t waste more time on that than necesseary. :)

Thx :) You can also follow me on Instagram if you haven’t seen that already. I have more photos there of what this hexagon can grow into :) instagram.com/stonegnomedesign/

Thank you so much Nancy. I'm not sure this is in the category of brioche? I will have to look into that. I made a pillow pattern this way (2 pillows actually). If you want to have a look, see here: www.stonegnome.com/2017/11/picky-pillows.html

Thx Allie. About the tail. You can guess and be lucky or have to try again. - OR - you could make a sample with the relevant yarn and hook. Make 20 cast-on stitches, mark the yarn right before the last cast-on and right before the loose yarn end on the hook. Now frog. Then measure how much yarn to use for 20 sts. ->> Using the other end of the yarn ball might be possible. And it is a VERY good idea. Then you’ll first need to figure out how to join the yarn ends in an way you like. Maybe a simple knot will do? Then untie and sew in later - or make a border and hide it in that. :)

Hi April, Yes. For a well-formed border, the hooks need to be the same size, to make the V’s the right size. (If you look at the border after making the first row, you will see something that looks like a row of V’s). HOWEVER, there are other ways to cast-on, if you only have one hook.
