If you have trouble with using the updated Ravelry user interface (the one from 2020 that gives people migraines...), on desktop you can change the style of the page using a browser extension.
I use this for many websites, but I made a specific code for Ravelry that you can find on my blog here: https://yarnandy.com/making-ravelry-more-accessible-on-desktop-pcs/
Unlike other CSS tutorials out there, I wrote a step by step tutorial with screenshots so anyone can use it, even if you have no idea what CSS is.
This is the Tunisian crochet version.
They all come with charts and are pretty easy to extend to larger sizes.

This is the crochet version. It's currently offered with US terms, but I'll make a UK terms version as well, if folks need it.

All three versions (knit, crochet, Tunisian crochet) are now available in the Needle & Skein Ravelry (you can visit my designer profile to find them quickly).
I'm not sure when they'll be on Payhip or their shop, as they are updating things, but at least they are on Rav.
I'll reply with links to both the new ones.
It took less time to make this much than to draw the chart. It goes fast when you only have a little bit of yarn. A 5 mm hook with lace weight yarn also helps.
I'm half way through the yarn and at 53 cm in length. I'd like to make the whole chart, so I'm just spinning more, hoping the second dye job will be close to the first.
I'm out of BFL, but I have some Falkland that has a similar fiber thickness and length, so I'm hoping it won't be too obvious.
It's on Ravelry as well https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/melt-the-ice-bandana and soon there'll be a crochet and a Tunisian crochet version as well.
I'll post when they are published (I only created the patterns, but they get published in another shop, so all proceeds can go directly to the Immigrant Aid organizations).
I have 14.77 g of this lace weight single Z-twist BFL, handspun on the Turkish spindle in the background. It's dyed with food coloring (red and a bit of orange that I thought was red...). I really want to use it and make the most of it.
Since it's a single, knitting is a no-no, so I'm thinking a Tunisian crochet narrow scarf with all-over lace.
I've been wearing daily the Sliver scarf I made a few months back and this could be an alternative for when spring finally starts...
Happy to announce a new collaboration with Needle & Skein in Minnesota.
This one is for all the folks in the warmer regions who want to show their solidarity with people who are affected by ICE.
The proceeds from the sale of their patterns go towards charities providing services to those affected. This is a knit bandana pattern, there will also be a crochet and Tunisian crochet version soon.
Sometimes the beauty of a lace pattern can be obscured by the fluffiness of the yarn itself.
In this case, the little project on my Tunisian crochet hook is made up of 3 rows that create a lovely lace pattern only when you look through it. Looking at it, you can't even tell how thick the yarn is.
This project is made on an 8 mm hook and that feels just right for the yarn. #tunisianCrochet #lace
