This pattern is for an overlay mosaic crochet square that can be used in other types of projects, such as blankets, pillows, satchel bags, table mats, etc.

Please note: current PDF has chart only but will be updated later this month with written row-by-row instructions.

Any yarn or hook will work, depending on the desired size of the finished square. I used yarn weight of 4 with a 5.5 hook, which creates a square of 13.5” x 13”.

You will need 2-3 colors of yarn - one for the background, another for the border & letters, and an optional 3rd color for the background star & dots, although you could also do those in the same main color as the letters if you don’t want to do mid-row color switches.

This is a great way to use up scraps! For projects using all 3 colors, you will need approximately 2 oz of the background color, 1 oz each of the star color and letter colors, when using a worsted or aran (wt 4) type of yarn.

Pattern is in US crochet terms.
