Strawberry Fields is a lovely summer project that incorporates strawberries, blossoms, and flowers.

It is created using the overlay mosaic technique.

The PDF includes six easy-to-read charts for each pattern, with corresponding written instructions.

Two PDFs are available - one using US terms and one using UK terms.

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

If using just two colours of Yarnsmiths Create DK, you will need approximately:

• Colour A (Pattern colour) - 5 skeins

• Colour B (Background colour) - 4 skeins

• 3-row Double Border in the colour of your choice - 2 skeins

• Optional Bobble (Berry Stitches) 1 skein

The blanket size will be approximately 103cm wide by 137cm long with a 3-row double border (182 stitches x 242 rows)

For my example, I used 16 colours of Yarnsmiths Create DK. The pattern PDF contains the full yarn stats and a full row-by-row breakdown of the colours I used.

This is a great beginner Mosaic crochet design, as the repeats are only 18 stitches and are very easy to crochet.

I hope you enjoy creating your own Strawberry Fields project.

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

Happy Crocheting
