Start your day the crochet way… with coffee first

The Mosaic Coffee First Tablerunner is a bold, graphic design that brings together texture, rhythm, and a love for all things coffee. Featuring a classic moka pot, coffee grinder, and a stylised latte art motif framed by geometric panels, this piece is perfect for adding a warm, cozy café vibe to your table or coffee station.

Designed using overlay mosaic crochet, this pattern creates stunning detail with simple stitches—no colour changes within rows, just a relaxing, meditative flow that builds into something truly eye-catching.
