This is a digital pattern (available in PDF format only) that can be used to crochet a blanket using Overlay Mosaic Crochet

Two versions are included in this pattern:
• Overlay mosaic crochet with cutting yarn each row (traditional version)
• Overlay mosaic crochet turning rows without cutting yarn
You can find:

• Instructions and information on measurements, quantity and brand of yarn used, and links to video tutorials on the overlay mosaic crochet technique.
• The written row-by-row instructions (traditional mosaic style) are included in the same 9-page PDF file.
• The written pattern (rows worked back and forth without cutting the yarn) is provided row by row on 9 pages.
• The Big Chart mosaic on a single page (high resolution for zooming).
• The Big Chart with the Xs marked, on 24 pages, for print.

Colours Used: 2 (But if you are skilled in the technique, feel free to use as many colours as you want)

Graph Size: 193 columns (stitches) x 193 rows

The finished size depends not only on the graph size but also on your stitch choice, hook size, yarn thickness, and other factors.
For this pattern, my tester Kathy Le Cooter used a ** 4.5 mm hook (US = 7, UK = 7), and the finished blanket measures149´89 cm (59”) wide and 137´16 cm (54”) high without a border****

These dimensions are suitable for a primary blanket for children’s beds:
• Standard cribs and large cribs (60x120 cm or 70x140 cm): The size is perfect for fully covering a crib mattress, leaving enough excess on the sides (150 cm in width) to tuck the blanket firmly under the mattress, ensuring a restful sleep for the baby.

My tester used the yarn Crafter´s Secret Big Idea of
Hobby Lobby (Medium 4 /Aran). If you use the same yarn and hook, for a reversible blanket, you will need about 6 skeins (4446 meters / 4860 yards) for the lighter colour (Pearl Fleck) and about 5 Skeins (3705 meters / 4050 yards) for the darker colour (Passport).
