This tutorial is done in the Overlay Mosaic Crochet Technique. In this tutorial I will teach you how to crochet this eye catching Mosaic design. .

This pattern is worked in a MULTIPLE of 12 + 4. ROW START TIMES PROVIDED BELOW.

TO REPEAT THE DESIGN FOR LARGER PROJECTS YOU WILL WORK ROWS 1 THRU 16 AND THEN WORK ROWS 3 THRU 16 AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WOULD LIKE FOR THE PROJECT YOU CHOOSE.

The chart for this is in my Etsy shop which you can find here the PDF also includes a chart for in the round: https://www.etsy.com/FiberFoxStudios/...

Mosaic crochet is great for all skill levels and can be used to create many different things such as blankets, pillows, purses/bags, totes and garments. You can crochet these patterns in any combination you would like or just choose one and make and entire project with the same design. The result will be an eye catching, geometric design that is unisex and versatile.

Suggested starting chains for various projects - counts include +4 at end:
Baby blanket: 100 to 124 chains depending on yarn size used

Throw blanket : 160 chains, yarn size will affect total width and the number of repeats I'd up to you and will determine total length

Tote or Throw Pillow: 40 chains or 52 chains depending on yarn size used and desired size

Makeup or Notions bag: 28 chains to 40 chains

Cowl: chain 40 work as many repeats as you would like, 8 am doing 10 repeats on mine. (total of 133 rows this will vary depending on yarn you use and hook size)

Scarf: 28 to 40 chains depending on yarn size used and desired width. I recommend size 3 light weight yarn or smaller for wearables.

You can create any project you like from Mosaic Crochet, these are just a few suggestions!

HOOK SIZE: I am using a 4.5mm hook in this tutorial. I recommend using the below hook sizes depending on yarn used:
3 DK yarn : 3.5mm to 4.5mm
Size 4 Medium/worsted weight: 4.5mm to 5.5mm.
Mixing 3 & 4 weight: 3.5mm to 4.5mm

THE YARN: I'm using size 4 yarn, any brand will work as well as any size.
Big Twist in Grey
Red Heart Super Saver in Aqua

Note on mixing yarn sizes 3 (DK) & Size 4 (Medium Worsted weight): THE TRICK TO MIXING YARN SIZES IS JUST KEEPING YOUR TENSION EVEN AND USING THE SMALLEST SIZE HOOK RECOMMENDED FOR THE SMALLER YARN! You can use any yarn size you like and can use yarn that is all the same size, you do not have to mix yarn sizes.

To begin your project you will chain in multiples of 12 plus 4 at the end. You will skip the first chain and begin working in the second chain from the hook, ending up with an odd number of stitches. EXAMPLE: I chained 40 and had 39 stitches at the end of my first Foundation Row.

Stitches used in this project: Back Loop Single Crochet and Front Loop Double Crochet (drop down double crochet as I like to call it).
