This is such a cute pattern and could easily be made to match any and every outfit! I have never attempted to learn Tunisian crochet, I'm slightly intimidated by it but have been crocheting for years and learn quickly, this might be my new weekend project!

A very nicely written pattern for the Tunisian Crochet Belt. Tunisian stitch has a great pattern in it's self and I like the idea of making a belt with it. I am not sure about the cross stitching part in this pattern, I'm thing of using a self striping yarn and see how that comes out.. Thank you for this free easy pattern.
