ABOUT THE CAL
Welcome to the Tunisian Blanket CAL of 2023!! This is my fourth year of hosting a blanket CAL and I am so excited to share what I have in store for you!

I love trying new stitches and techniques and I have been experimenting with Tunisian Mosaic Crochet lately. You probably already know this but I love this technique so I decided to use it for my next blanket CAL!

This is going to be a mystery CAL where one 10” x 10” square will be released every 2 weeks - at 10 AM Central Time on alternate Wednesdays. Each square will be made with a different mosaic pattern.

WHY TUNISIAN MOSAIC CROCHET
I chose Tunisian Mosaic Crochet for my next CAL because of 3 reasons -

  1. You only need to know 2 stitches
  2. There are no color changes in the middle of a row
  3. You don’t have a million ends to weave in!

TECHNIQUE AND DIFFICULTY
Squares – Beginner
The squares in this blanket are beginner friendly. There are only two stitches you need to know.

Border – Intermediate
The border in this blanket will be worked in a round. If you are not comfortable with working in a round, you can skip the mosaic border and make any border of your choice.

Each square measures 10” (25.5 cms).
My mosaic border is 3.25” (8 cms) wide and the size of my blanket is 57” x 57”.

GAUGE
8 rows of 8 stitches is a 2” square. The gauge swatch is worked with a mosaic pattern which is mentioned in the document.

YARN
I made my blanket with Stylecraft Special DK yarn in colors Silver and White.
