Have you tried making extended stitches using Tunisian crochet? It is a very simple technique and can be applied to pretty much any stitch. It creates a very drapey, breathable fabric that does not curl at all. In this tutorial, I will walk you through making the extended stitches using 5 different stitches – Tunisian Simple Stitch, Tunisian Knit Stitch, Tunisian Purl Stitch, Tunisian Full Stitch, and Tunisian Reverse Stitch.
The hook
There are a bunch of different Tunisian crochet hooks available for purchase. You can read about the hooks I use here. Because of the nature of Tunisian crochet stitches, I recommend using a hook that is at least 2 sizes larger than the recommended hook on the yarn.
Curling
The fabric built with this stitch should not curl.
