The pattern is constructed using the overlay mosaic
technique using just two contrasting colours. I chose to
use a variegated yarn as I couldn’t resist seeing how the
colours would pop and it has really done it justice. You
can use two solid colours for this too for a more subtle
piece.

The wall hanging is worked from the bottom up and then
the border is made at the end to encase all the ends.

This pattern is labelled as Intermediate.
