I love mosaic tiles. So I designed this little throw pillow with a mosaic design on it. A beautiful cushion as decoration for your home or garden.

This pillow is made with the same technique used for Mochila bags. You have to crochet this pillow with two colors at the same time and with the ‘yarn under’ technique.

This pattern is not made with the crochet technique ‘mosaic crochet’, but only has a mosaic design on it!

The pattern is available in English with English and American crochet terms and in Dutch!

The pillow will be approx. 29 cm/11.4 inch high and 39 cm/ 15 inch wide

Level: intermediate (if you don’t know this technique then it is a difficult pattern)

The stitches that are used are:
American: Single Crochet (yarn under and only the back loops) and Slipstitch (Hook C2 = 2.5 mm hook)
English: Double Crochet (yarn under and only the back loops) and Slipstitch (Hook 12 = 2.5 mm hook)
Dutch: Vaste and Halve Vaste (Hook 2,5 mm)

Used yarn: sport / 4 ply
You need:

• 165 grams purple cotton yarn (= 413 meters/452 yds)
• 160 grams white cotton yarn (=400 meters/437 yds)
• Stuffing (fiberfill) for the pillow or an insert size 40 x 30 cm/ 15.7 x 11.8 inch
