Mosaic Overlay Crochet Pattern. 2 PDFs, US & UK terminology.

Who doesn’t have lots of odd balls or part balls of yarn in their stash? This pattern is a good opportunity to use up some of that stash. Most of the designs need less than ¼ of a 100g ball for one of the colours. Of course, the designs would also look lovely with repeated colours or the same background or pattern colour throughout!

Included in the pattern:

  • A full-size chart and full written instructions
  • Individual charts for 13 designs
  • Full details of yarn amounts and colours for each design for the top pictured blanket
  • Details on how to change the size of your blanket
  • Instructions on mosaic overlay techniques and chart reading

Why Superstition? There are 13 designs and most of them have 13 rows. This was a complete coincidence when designing this pattern!

The pattern is suitable for mosaic beginners as there are no special stitches, just basic crochet stitches. If you haven’t worked mosaic crochet before but know crochet basics and can research YouTube videos if needed, then this pattern is for you.

When choosing yarn, it is important to choose contrasting colours such as light and dark, so the pattern can be seen.
