Thank you for your interest in my latest design Spirit of the Sea!
I loved the idea of seeing the creatures under the sea and the coastline. I so look forward to seeing your creations so please share them in my Facebook group!
IN ENGLISH ONLY
With this download you get the written pattern, separate charts, full chart of the whole design all in separate PDFs. The starting chain for the blanket is 191 stitches, which INCLUDE the anchor stitches and turning chain for your first single crochet after chaining. An overlay mosaic crochet design using US terminology. All single crochet go through the back loop only and all double crochet go through the front loop of the same colour 2 rows below. At the start and finish of every row will be a single crochet stitch. These are separate to the pattern, and you will go through both loops of these stitches at either end. I call these Anchor stitches, AS.
Every single crochet is written as ‘s’ and every double crochet is written as ‘D’.
I used Scheepjes Catona a 4ply yarn with a size 3mm hook, 50g balls of 125m per ball. Total weight of yarn for main pattern is 980g.
In these colours; Moon Rock 254 Brown 450g, 1125m, 9 balls. English tea 404 warm beige 90g, 225m, 2 balls. Chrystaline 385 light green 134g, 335m, 3 balls.

For the border I used the Moon Rock for the front of my border and left over colours of the main pattern for the back of my border, totalling 1,006g for the whole blanket.
