Description:

Peacock Mosaic Blanket is an overlay mosaic crochet pattern, showing a peacock standing under an old stone archway, with its feathers spread out across the steps.

Overlay mosaic crochet patterns are worked row by row. Each row is worked in one colour. At the end of each row the yarn is cut, and the next row is worked on the front side of the work again with the other colour. This pattern does not include any slanted or angled stitches, just standard stitches.

Pattern files included:

• written instructions (both UK and US terms)
• large chart to view on screen (or use with apps like Knit Companion)
• smaller charts, split out to A4 size for easier printing

Charts and written patterns are included for both right-handed and left-handed use.

Size:
This item is 190 stitches wide and has 203 rows. In DK yarn it will be about 100cm wide and 111cm long (about 39” wide and 44” long). If you choose to add a border, this will make it a bit bigger.

Yarn:
You can use any yarn and hook size you like for this pattern, just be aware that the resulting size may be different, and it may use a different amount of yarn. I recommend using two colours with a good contrast, so that the pattern shows up clearly.

Example yarn usage:
Yarn: Stylecraft Special DK
7 x 100g balls of Colour A (white background) - uses about 1773 metres (1939 yards)
5 x 100g balls of Colour B (blue peacock) - uses about 1299 metres (1421 yards)

This pattern does not include a border. You have the option of leaving the ends as a fringe, sewing them in, or adding an envelope border if you prefer.
