Liberty Endures 1776–2026 – Mosaic Overlay Crochet Blanket Pattern

Liberty Endures 1776–2026 is a commemorative mosaic overlay crochet blanket pattern created to mark 250 years of American history through enduring symbols of freedom, resilience, and continuity. This striking design traces a visual timeline from the founding of the nation to the present day, anchored by the Liberty Bell and framed by figures representing both past and present.

Designed with clean lines and strong contrast, this pattern has been carefully developed to ensure excellent chart clarity and stitch definition when worked in mosaic overlay crochet. Though the finished blanket appears bold and intricate, the mosaic overlay technique is worked one colour per row, creating a rhythmic, methodical process that many crocheters find deeply satisfying.
