[Nfb-krafters-korner] Tunisian crochet?

[Eileen Scrivani]

Hi laura:

I've heard of Tunisian Crochet and have wanted to learn it.  If you are 
interested, Denise, the company that makes interchangeable knitting needle 
sets, also makes a set of interchangeable crochet hooks.  I have them and 
use them for my knitting and assume they will work with Tunisian crochet 
because you can attach the cords of any length you like to each hook & place 
either 1 hook on the cord, or 1 hook at each end of the cord.  you can see 
them at www.denise.com

HTH.

Eileen
