Hello everyone, I’m Tonja the designer behind Pink Plumeria Maui and I’m excited to be back with a new Knit & Tunisian Crochet pattern.

Today I’m sharing with you a fun knit and Tunisian crochet pattern using Clover’s Takumi Bamboo Knitting Needles and Clover’s Takumi Bamboo Interchangeable Tunisian crochet hook, the Knit & Tunisian Crochet Water Balloon. Two patterns with one similar look! Can you tell which one is knit and which one is Tunisian crochet?

The Knit & Tunisian Crochet Water Balloon is made with super bulky yarn, uses basic knitting and purling techniques as well as simple Tunisian crochet and the Tunisian knit stitch. The Knit & Tunisian Crochet Water Balloon is a super fun pattern that would be good practice for a beginner knitter or Tunisian crocheter and a super quick project for an experienced knitter or Tunisian crocheter.

The pattern is worked in simple rows with easy construction to finish it off. The Knit & Tunisian Crochet Water Balloon is a great way to use scraps of your blanket yarn. If you need to buy a skein of yarn, you will be able to get more than a handful of water balloons from it. The Knit & Tunisian Crochet Water Balloon is sure to be a splash with your kids, neighbors, friends and extended family. My kids have been the best testers and approve this pattern!

Let’s get to it. Here’s what you’ll need.

Interchangeable Tunisian Crochet Hook, Size L/8.0 mm (Art. No 3698)
