Diamond Star ✨

I wanted to create something bold and bright, so with pride, I present my latest pattern: Diamond Star!

A Versatile & Extensive Design
Diamond Star offers multiple options to suit different styles and preferences:
✔️ Shape Options: Crochet it as a rectangle or a square
✔️ Construction Styles:
• In the round (no ends to weave in!)
• Row by row (classic method, ends need weaving in)

✔️ Two Techniques Available:
• Overlay Mosaic Crochet (2, 3, or 4 colour options)
• Interlocking Filet Crochet (2 colours)

✔️Extensive pattern: please choose your technique, language, and colour option before printing or consider a digital device to follow the to save trees!
For digital devices I advise Foxit PDF Editor or KnitCompanion (free versions available in your app store).

For the best effect, choose bold, contrasting colours. If opting for the 2-colour version, variegated yarn could be a great choice!
