I designed ‘Sholach’ for my friends Kelly, Craig and their family who run Sholach Christmas Tree Farm in Scotland.

It is a lovely project for winter or Christmas and is created using the overlay mosaic technique.

The PDF has 6 easy to read charts (with X’s for DCs) for each pattern included, and corresponding written instructions.

Two PDF’s are available - one using US terms and one using UK terms.

You can use any yarn and corresponding hook you like for this pattern, just remember a tighter tension is better for mosaic crochet.

If using Stylecraft Special Aran, you will need approximately 20 skeins for the main body of the blanket. (not including a border)

• 10 skeins for colour A
• 10 skeins for colour B

Between 3858 - 4501 yards (3528 - 4116 metres)

This will create a blanket approximately 155cm x 115cm (61” x 45”) without a border.

You can of course create any size you want as it’s a simple repeating pattern.

I hope you enjoy creating your own Sholach blanket.

Please do share your creations online and tag #getyerhookon and #sholachmosaiccrochet

Happy Crocheting
