Free Pattern - Tunisian Crochet Covered Coathanger

Begin by creating a chain the length of your coat hanger.

Foundation Row:

Beginning with 2^nd chain from hook, pick up loop in the back hump of each chain across, until one chain remains. You should have 24 loops on your hook.  

 Work reverse pass by making a yarn over and drawing the yarn through the first loop on the hook, *yarn over, and draw through two loops. Repeat from * until there is only one loop on the hook.

 Row 2: Skip first vertical bar, insert hook from right to left under the next vertical bar. Yarn over and pull up a loop, leave on hook. Work across to last stitch. To work last stitch, insert hook into the chain under both bars, yarn over and pull up a loop.

 Work reverse pass by making a yarn over and drawing the yarn through the first loop on the hook, *yarn over, and draw through two loops. Repeat from * until there is only one loop on the hook.

Repeat row 2 til fabric reaches around the coat hanger.

 

Last Row:Tunisian Bind-Off *Insert the hook from right to left behind the next vertical bar and yarn over.  Draw a loop through both the vertical bar and the loop on the hook - like a slip stitch** Repeat from * to** until the one vertical bar remains that defines the "far edge" of the fabric.

  

Using a needle, sew fabric together lengthwise around coat hanger, sew in thread ends. Decorate with ribbon and crochet flower.
