Braided Little Squares
This pattern was written as an Entry to CAL - Crochet A Long Facebook Group’s Design-A-Scarf-2022 Challenge and was originally offered free from my blog for a short period up until 23 November 2022.
Members of the Group voted on which scarves they liked to decide the order of release Mine was eighth out of 26 scarves submitted).
It’s now available for a small fee from my Etsy shop. After payment you will have access to both UK and US versions.
The scarf uses the overlay mosaic crochet technique and has photos showing how to construct the special stitches needed and the fringe. A chart is provided for those who prefer to crochet from them.
The pattern has been thoroughly tested by a super group of volunteers. I was particularly pleased that three of my testers had never worked on an overlay mosaic crochet pattern before so it was great that they all managed to produce beautiful scarves as you can see below.
The design works well with solid colours as well as self-striping yarns with longer lengths. Variegated yarns (like those used for fair isle effect or having short colour changes) should be avoided for this design.
Extra special thanks to Laurene Leeseberg Bluder and Silke Karp who were always available with help on the administration and overall organisation of the whole, to my testers and to everyone who voted for my scarf. Thank you!
