Pattern notes

First sc is always worked in same stitch as ch1.

Colour change always in last sc with two loops on hook.

The pattern is worked in 2 parts plus the sides.

Part 1 is following the mosaic scheme in chart 1.

Part 2 is following the mosaic scheme in chart 2.

Every chart row represents two crochet rows in the same colour. The first row “creates” the

pattern.

Each square in the chart represents one stitch. If a yarn B stitch appears in a yarn A row you

chain 2 and skip the stitch. Same thing when a yarn A stitch appears in a yarn B row.

The charts are crocheted from bottom to top and from right to left.

Chart 1: chart row 1,3,5,7… and so on in yarn B, chart row 2,4,6,8,10…and so on in yarn A.

Chart 2: chart row 1,3,5,7… and so on in yarn B, chart row 2,4,6,8,10…and so on in yarn A.

You crochet a mosaicdc if the square in the row below is an alternate colour square. It is always

worked two rows below in front of work. This technique gives you the opportunity to create an

alternate colour stitch in the row below.

The second row of every chart row is sc in every sc or mosaicdc and 1ch2, skip1 stitch over

every ch2, skip1 stitch. The first row of every chart row “creates” the pattern and the second row

“manifests” it.

Chain2 always counts as one stitch.

Chain1 in the end/beginning of row does not count as stitch.

The mosaic scheme in chart 1 is a multiple of 38 stitches. (plus 1 start stitch, 1 end stitch and 1 stitch to make get symmetry)

The mosaic scheme in chart 2 is also a multiple of 38 stitches. (plus 1 start stitch, 1 end stitch and 1 stitch to make get symmetry)

Column 1 (first stitch) in chart 1 and 2 represents a start stitch of the row.


Column 40 (second to last stitch) in chart 1 and 2 represents the extra stitch which is added at the last repeat to have a symmetric pattern

Column 41 (last stitch) in chart 1 and 2 represents the end stitch of the row

The pattern is adjustable with a multiple of 38 plus 3 in width. In the starting chain you do add 1 more stitch because your first sc is made in the second chain.

The first and last stitch in the mosaic patterns are starting/ending stitches. They do not affect the graphical mosaic pattern.

Do not cut yarn if it is not written in the pattern. You can avoid a lot of loose ends by just picking up the yarn from the row below when starting a new one. Trust me, it is worth it in the end.
