Level 2-Advanced (angle stitches)

Looking for a fun and unique crochet pattern? This hot air balloon bag crochet pattern is made using the mosaic crochet technique. It is worked in the round, so there are no ends to weave in.

This mosaic crochet pattern is an advanced skill level and is recommended for crocheters with experience in mosaic overlay crochet. Detailed instructions, photos, and video tutorials will guide you through each step of the project. With a little bit of patience and practice, you’ll be a pro in no time!

If you are new to angle stitches, I highly recommend trying them first with this free Heart Mug Rug pattern. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/heart-mug-rug-2 This small 7”x 7” project is a great introduction to my angle notation system and includes my full stitch key.

This pattern is divided into 4 sections. I would suggest using the Knit Companion app (my personal preference as it is brilliant and saves on printer ink and paper), but I have also included layout instructions for the charts if you prefer to print out your pages. The written pattern sections correlate with the charts so they can be used together.

Special thanks to Kathy Gleich and Anita Schadeck for testing this pattern.
