Square #16 – Tunisian Knitlings Afghan Square designed by Heart Hook Home
Square 16 of the Tunisian Crochet Blanket CAL of 2022 is designed by Ashlea from Heart Hook Home.
This square features Tunisian Knit and Extended stitches to create a lovely textured pattern.
Here is the designer’s version of the square, she made it with a solid color.
Here is my square – I made it with 3 colors of the Preciosa Tonal Worsted yarn by KnitPicks.
My Notes
This square features Tunisian Knit and Extended stitches to create a lovely textured pattern. Here are my notes from when I was working on my square:
- This block is really easy to make, I don’t have too many notes for it.
- It was a good change from all the complex designs we have been working on. It was so fun to make.
- I really liked the use of extended stitches in this block.
- I changed color on every row. I think it looks amazing with the color changes. I love how my squared turned out!
- My square:
- # of stitches = 40
- # of rows = 36
- Border – I made:
- One rounds of sc (single crochet) stitches – one sc per stitch or row and 3 sc stitches in the corners. I aim to get equal number of stitches on all edges so I accommodated for that here
- One round of sc (single crochet) stitches in back loop only – one sc per stitch and 3 sc stitches in the corners
Pattern repeats and Adjustments
To adjust width: Add / remove stitches in multiples of two.
To adjust height: Add / remove rows as needed.

Important notes
The copyright for each pattern is held by the designer. You may ask for additional resources and tutorials from the designer of the square only. No one else can make a full tutorial of the pattern unless permitted by the designer. I have included my notes and links to my tutorials that I think might be helpful in making the square but those do not supersede the instructions and tutorials provided by the designer.
