Welcome to my GARDEN LIFE CAL! This CAL is to celebrate the love of all things gardening and features various gardening tools, topiaries, pansies, & a cute flower border that can be done in 2 optional ways.

This project uses the overlay mosaic technique and the pattern is written in US crochet terms and includes the full written row by row pattern along with fully marked charts. Because this was a CAL, there are seperate sections all combined into one PDF download, and includes fully marked & colorized charts for print & for viewing on devices. The charts have all the X’s marked, and there are full instructions on all the techniques used in this project, along with links to generic video tutorials on the techniques used as well.

You can do this project in multiple colors as shown, or you can use just 2 colors as in traditional overlay mosaic, adding interest with an ombre or self striping background color. You could change the background color for each section as well - the possibilities are endless and totally up to you!

So get your yarn colors picked out and your hooks warmed up & join me on this fun gardening adventure!!
