This link will show you some of the basic stitches and some of the fancier stitches.  It is a very good tutorial.  Here is the link: http://www.crochetcabana.com/stitches/index.htm        I am curious as to how many of the tunisian stitches you know how to do.  I have been trying to learn all of them but I still have a few to accomplish.  Everyone I know that does tunisian does only the afghan stitch itself and not the others.

I just know three, knit stitch, cast on and simple one (i think this one is the afgan stitch). All of them i learned from youtube.com, it's good website to learn how to do stitches because we can see and practice while the video running.

here the complete link: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tunisian+crochet+stitch&aq=1

finally i found the link that answer my former question (http://crochetwithdee.webs.com/typesofcrochet.htm) but now i am want to know how to do it, most of the technique don't exist in youtube, T.T..

Can someone tell me where i can learn (link) these stitches technique?

Many of the stitch techniques shown on the link you posted above have a line to click on to go to that specific technique.  the stitches that don't have an additional line to link you to for more info can easily be google searched and will show you more links---if there are any on the internet.

I tried to do the tunisian stitch. The funny things is when i made until the 6th row i found that it twisted, i dont know how to fix it. So i tried to replay from the beginning but it happened again. So frustrated!!!

I am not sure what part of your work twisted but tunisian work does curl terribly so you need to really hold your work firmly and be sure it is flat so you can see the bars of the stitches that you need to work in.  Apart from that aspect, the tunisian knit stitch is supposed to "twist" ---which is what makes it look liked knitted stitches instead of crochet stitches.  Wink  Just keep reading the online info that has written instruction as well as step-by-step photos and also watch and replay the videos.  It does takes time and practice!  It will get easier.  There are some really nice tunisian stitches, some easier than others, but I enjoy all of the stitches I have learned so far....after much practice with each one.

Make your first 3 or 4 rows in the purl stitch, that will help your piece not roll so bad.

Right on, Reb, as always.  Those first few rows of purl stitch do help control the roll.  Wink
