Are you intimidated by Tapestry Crochet? Well, it is not as hard as it looks! If you can crochet back and forth in rows and color by the numbers, you can work tapestry crochet!

This is one of my favorite crochet techniques, and in spite of looking complicated, it is rather simple to do. Once you master this technique, you can do any colorwork design you can dream of, from the simple to the super-complex.

What type of colorwork design would you like to make?

I absolutely love the apple green diamond cardigan. I plan to crochet it as soon as I can decide which yarn to use. If I have enough of it, I have a similar color to the green that you used in a linen blend. However it’s a 3 weight yarn. I’ll have to see if I can meet gauge or work a larger size.
