This is a pattern for a blanket, cushion cover, wallhanging, or whatever you want it to be ;) made in Overlay Mosaic Crochet, working from right to left only, cutting off yarn after every row.

This pattern does not teach you the Overlay Mosaic Technique, although basic instructions are given.

Pattern includes a continuous version, a version without half toucans and separate patterns for the three different toucans.
All include charts with X for DC and written row by row instructions.

Any yarn can be used, but for the white/rainbow version (continuous version), Scheepjes (colors listed in pattern file) is used in combination with a white yarn. This is 2 repeats wide and 2 repeats high and measures 80cm x 120cm with 1850 meter yarn in total with a 3.5mm hook.
The rainbow/black version is the version without half toucans, made with Caron Skinny cakes in Rainbow, with Lion Brand Pound op love in Charcoal. This is approximately 114cm x 162cm and uses a total of 3335 meter yarn and a 3.5mm hook.

Using different yarn and/or hook size won’t affect the design. It will however change the size and the amount of yarn needed.

Continuous version has a repeat of 74 stitches and 104 rows (but can be made in any size as it has no specific beginning or end).
Version without half toucans has the same repeat, However, this has an additional 31 stitches before and 18 stitches after the repeat to make a clear beginning and end to the pattern. It also has 53 rows before and 18 rows after the repeat. Therefore, the amount of stitches is always a multiple of 74 + 49 (+ 2 border stitches). The amount of rows is always a multiple of 104 + 71 rows.
