With love I present you: Hope Faith Love

It is a small project of 3 squares representing the symbols of my past. When I was a young girl my mother gave me a silver bracelet with those symbols. I loved it. Sadly I lost it during a burglary when I lived in Brussels. So now I have it back as a pattern.

You can make it as a table runner, pillow or wall hanging using all 3, 2 or 1 of the squares

The pattern comes in two techniques: Overlay Mosaic Crochet and Interlocking Filet Crochet. Both come in row to row and in the round (no fringe to sew in for mosaic lovers) version. The pattern has a written text and X chart for all techniques. I also included links to my tutorials for each technique.
