Level 3 Advanced (angle stitches, tapestry color changes)

Netherland enthusiasts, crocheters, this blanket design is for you! This mosaic overlay crochet pattern is perfect for showing your love of your homeland. The windmill, Rotterdam skyline, and Netherland flag are all featured in this pattern. This blanket will be a cherished gift for years to come!

This mosaic crochet pattern is an advanced skill level and is recommended for crocheters with experience in mosaic overlay crochet. It includes a small section of tapestry color change for the flag. Detailed instructions, photos, and video tutorials will guide you through each step of the project. With a little bit of patience and practice, you’ll be a pro in no time!

If you are new to angle stitches, I highly recommend trying them first with this free Heart Mug Rug pattern. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/heart-mug-rug-2 This small 7”x 7” project is a great introduction to my angle notation system and includes my full stitch key.

Written for Mosaic Overlay Crochet, this pattern includes:
• Charts
• Written Pattern
• Detailed Instructions packet
• Stitch Key
• Photo tutorials
• Video tutorials for each type of stitch used in the patterns

This pattern is divided into 8 sections and is worked from the bottom up. I would suggest using the Knit Companion app (my personal preference as it is brilliant and saves on printer ink and paper), but I have also included layout instructions for the charts if you prefer to print out your pages.

I have added an updated stitch key with more photos and links to video tutorials to help you master angle stitches!
