Introduction
Technique
This blanket has been created using the overlay mosaic crochet method. Every row is worked in
one colour from right to left on the front side of the project alternating every row between two
colours. Start each row with a slipstitch to attach the yarn and a border stitch in the same stitch.
Work row in single crochets in back loop only and/or double crochets in front loop of same placed
and colour stitch two rows below. Always one stitch worked in one stitch. End each row with a
border stitch and a slipstitch to secure the yarn. Cut yarn and go back to right side of the project to
start the next row.
You can find many tutorials on YouTube. I’m personally a big fan of the videos from the amazing
