This is a mosaic throw.
This is an intermediate level pattern: it doesn’t teach you Mosaic Crochet technique, but it’s assumed you are already familiar with it.

The pattern includes 15 different mosaic tiles, 1 big tile (worked in a mix of tapestry and mosaic crochet techniques) and 3 borders.

Instructions are clear and easy to understand.

Fell free to use your favourite yarn and colors.

“Amore e Psiche” is a tale written by Apuleio in “Metamorfosi, o l’Asino d’Oro”.
The main character, Lucio, is turned into a donkey by a magic mistake and some thieves used him to transport a gold treasure in their cove where an old woman that takes care of the thieves tells the story of Amore and Psiche to a young reaped girl to make her stop criyng.
Apuleio follows the cult of Isis and he inserts elements of the initiatory path of the cult of Isis into his book.

NOTE: I add the schema for central tile , but thera is also the written pattern. If you use the schema, read notes in the pattern before start
