44-year-old Kerry Whiting has been charged with murder over a double stabbing at a home in northern Tasmania last week.

A man aged in his 30s died, while a woman, also in her 30s, was seriously injured during the incident in the Launceston suburb of Ravenswood in the early hours of November 25.

The man is also facing charges of attempted murder and aggravated burglary, and is expected to appear in Launceston Magistrates Court on Friday. 

The woman has since been released from hospital and has been reunited with family.

Tasmania Police were involved in a week-long search for a man in relation to the alleged murder which came to an end on Wednesday night.
