Do you ever spot a gorgeous blanket pattern and wish you could keep just the border from one, a panel from another, and the colour scheme from a third? That’s exactly the fun of designing a mosaic mix-and-match blanket. Whether you want to stick to easy-to-fit repeats (think multiples of 48, 24, 12, 6, 4, 3 or 2) for a fuss-free build, or throw caution to the wind and combine motifs of any size, you can create a blanket that’s truly and uniquely yours.
If the thought of juggling stitch multiples or planning layouts makes your head spin, don’t worry — I’ve got you covered. My Mix-and-Match Mosaic Crib Sheet (and video tutorial) is coming soon! It will walk you through the whole process step-by-step, from choosing compatible motifs to calculating repeats and planning your layout. It will be the perfect companion to help you turn your ideas into a blanket you’ll truly love.

Usually the yarn colour changes with every row i.e. you ONLY use ONE colour per row – you ignore any changes in colour of the chart squares, they simply show what the final design will look like. You will need to fo at the end of every row.
Every row contains the same number of stitches (st).
The first and last st in every row is a single crochet (sc).
The first st is indicated by a square with a letter e.g. ‘A’ or ‘B’ in the chart.
The final st is indicated by a square with a ‘+’ in the chart.
Back loop only sc (BLOsc) are indicated by a square without a ‘X’ in the chart.
Front loop only double crochet (FLOdc) are indicated by a square with a ‘X’ in the chart.
All FLOdc are worked into the same-coloured stitch two rows down.
The red lines on the chart indicate the repeating section.
