To begin with, here is a project that looks like it's knitted. Overall, the Tunisian ribbed stitch here uses a Tunsian simple stitch and the Tunisian full stitch to yield a beautiful, almost herringbone effect interspersed with parallel portions.

0ffset Saloniki Square
And here is another varioation of the Tunisian Saloniki Stitch. While the basic technique is the same, it uses an offset to create a discontinuous effect. Thus, this crochet style creates a very soft and cozy afghan, that has a fairly prominent texture of diagonal bands of Saloniki stitching.
Tunisian Cross Stitch Afghan Block
"I simply love when you can use a simple crochet stitch and put a twist on it. This creates a beautiful new stitch that looks so much different by just changing a small thing. That is exactly what the Tunisian crochet cross stitch is. Simply put, you work two Tunisian simple stitches but crossed over. It is a super simple technique suitable for beginners. I have used this beautifully textured stitch for a simple afghan block. It would look lovely as part of a Tunisian stitch sampler blanket or cushion cover. You can also make this square with a 100% cotton yarn and use it as a washcloth or a facecloth."
Crochet Mosaic Potholder
To begin with, this crochet mosaic potholder uses quadrants of repeating patterns to generate a truly spectacular effect. Indeed, the combination of an almost snowflake-like pattern and flame orange is wonderful.
Tunisian Simple Stitch
If learning Tunisian crochet has been on you're to-do list, you're in the right place. The most basic Tunisian crochet stitch is the Tunisian Simple Stitch and is the place to start when just starting out.
Traveling Crochet Afghan Square
The Traveling Crochet Afghan Square is the number 11 square in the Traveling Crochet Afghan Project. It is made using the Tunisian Crochet technique. The Traveling Afghan Crochet Square features a bold cable down the center for depth and a 3D type of effect. The cable is achieved using the Tunisian Crochet. I can teach you how to crochet the Tunisian Crochet technique, too, with video tutorials. You'll love this addition to the Traveling Afghan Project."
