The Ladybug Motif square is crocheted in the round from the center and outward, using the mosaic crochet technique.
The pdf for this pattern is available in both US terms and UK terms.

This download contains:

  • introduction to mosaic crochet
  • links to video tutorials
  • written instructions
  • step by step photo tutorial
  • chart with X
  • written instructions for the border

Materials:
You can use any type of yarn you have or like and the hook that suits your yarn.
I used Simple Cotton 8/4 from hobbii and 2.5 mm crochet hook.
If you decide to use Simple Cotton as I did, for each square you will need approximately:
• 30 gr OF Main Color A – Warm Grey (27)
• 28 gr OF Pattern Color B – Teal (22)

Size
The size of the squares will vary depending on the hook and yarn you use.

With a 2.5 mm crochet hook, the size of the square will be approximately 22 × 22 cm / square.

For a Ladybug baby blanket, you will need 12 squares (4×3) and it’s 90 cm long and 66cm wide ( approximately). The border then adds 2,5 cm (1 inch) on each side.

For the 12 squares you will need approximately :
7 and a half skeins of color A
7 skeins of color B
