TECHNIQUE: Overlay Mosaic

Around The Block Plaid Cowl is a playful plaid pattern that, when reversing the colors looks entirely different at first glance. It’s a great way of making siblings or husband and wife look matchy-matchy without being, well, matchy! It’s a fun little repeating pattern that’s easy to remember and quick to work up!

This Darling Diamonds blanket pattern is worked in rows and is an absolute delight to crochet, with clearly written instructions and X-marked chart. The repeating pattern can easily be made to suit your needs.

The yarn I used is worsted weight, but you can use any weight yarn you like. I suggest making a sample of the full repeat to be sure you’re happy with your yarn and hook selection.

Square There features four square designs lined up in two configurations. It’s a fun design that is easy to follow and sure to delight! This neutral, clean design is well suited for blankets, cushion covers, runners or scarves.
