This pattern was designed to be worked in overlay mosaic crochet, working with one color at a time. It is suitable for adventurous beginners through advanced crocheters. The pattern includes a charted graph with double crochet stitches marked with Xs, written instructions, basic mosaic crochet information, and border instructions.

At a gauge of 3.5 stitches per inch (14 sc = 4”) the finished blanket will measure approximately 38x39” including border. This would be a great size for a baby or lap blanket. It would also be a great blanket for someone in a wheelchair, since it is small enough that the blanket wouldn’t get caught in the wheels.

Materials needed:
Worsted weight yarn in 2 contrasting colors*
Color A (white) approx 700 yds
Color B (navy blue) approx 650 yds
Border (navy blue) approx 350 yds
Other size yarns such as DK weight will work well for this project using the appropriate hook size for the yarn. The finished size and estimated yarn amounts will be different.*

Size H/5mm crochet hook or size needed to obtain a gauge of about 3.5 stitches per inch

Feel free to experiment with color placement and choose the way that works for you. My testers have made this both as written (white background) and with color A & B reversed (blue background).

If you’re new to mosaic crochet I have several photo and video tutorials available on my website.
