Came across your pattern - a must try! I have to comment that I never teach anyone how to crochet because I don’t control tension (yarn running over finger) with my index finger like “normal” crocheters do it. But I see you also hold your work with your index finer and use your middle finger to control yarn tension like me!!! I guess I’m not a weirdo!! Back to pattern - I love it and will make for sure! Thanks for the great tutorial!

There is no right way to hold your hook or yarn, it’s what ever is most comfortable for you! 😊 i hold my yarn completely different than her or most others that just use their index, it’s just what’s comfortable for each person

Hi! I'm watching from Sydney, Australia 😊 Thank you! I've always wanted to crochet a Mosaic blanket. Your tutorial is clear and easy to follow. I'm thinking of doing this with a gradient yarn as the contrast colour. Can't wait to start this one! [Side note: I love how there's no weaving of ends and the clean edges! 🥰]

Thanks so much for this method. I just hate dealing with yarn ends. I watched another of your videos and worked along with you but stopped when I had a million ends…. This is genius! I also learned a much neater way to carry colours and to add a border. Will be ordering the pattern when I post this comment! I would love to see a video showing how this method can be used to modify any mosaic pattern! Have a wedding gift to make and this is the pattern for me! Thanks again! ❤️🧶

I hate the ends too! Most mosaic patterns could potentially be done this way. Except when you crochet the no tails technique, it elongates the pattern because you are doing 2 rows for every row, so keep that in mind. I don't have a specific video teaching that, but my most recent video, the Rainbow hugs mosaic blanket, goes a little more in-depth on the no-tails technique. Basically, on any pattern, you would do the first row normally, then when you work back in the same colour instead of tying off the yarn, you will sc in every sc and drop-down stitch except the stitches where you previously chained you will chain again. Here is the other video it is about 4:40 when I start talking about it. Thanks! kzitem.info/news/bejne/l45pk2Rpa3iXh4Y

@@louiselovescrafting6802 I already have a short showing how I carry the yarn for this blanket, but it is an older short now, and I think it is too fast. Try watching this part of the Rainbow Hugs Mosaic Blanket it shows the technique a lot better. I've time-stamped it for you at 13:50. You can also adjust the speed if it is too quick.

Paris (France) - 24 may, 2023 One question : What is the difference between "insert" and "overlay" mosaic crochet ? Insert mosaic seems more complicated but I guess it must have some advantages.

I also thought that all single crochets were supposed to go in the back loop only to leave the front loop for the drop down double crochets. It looks like you are going through both loops. Now I am really confused.

There are two different types of mosaic crochet. You are thinking overlay, this pattern inset which is a no-tails technique. They are very different. You work 2 rows for every row on the chart. You will either ch or sc for every empty box alternating every row. For example, if the empty box is blue, you could be ch, and if the empty box is white, you will be sc in that row. On the way back, you will be sc in every space except in the ch space you will ch again. For the next row, you will alternate, the blue box will be a sc, and the white empty box will be a ch. X still represents a drop-down. You will go through 2 loops for your sc and 2 loops for your drop downs double crochets. Your drop-downs will always be in a previous ch space. It is very difficult to explain, so I recommend watching the video it will explain.

Hello, I have a question to ask I'm so confused, I'm not a beginner in crochet, inset is the first time though I took the challenge and bought this pattern but after the 3rd and 4th row when I can't find the spaces for the drop downs, am I making mistakes in the rows below ? And even at the end of the row I end up with a missing stitch. I don't have a problem reading and understanding the graph but I'm so frustrated I've been frogging everyday. I really need help cause I'm determined to finish the baby throw and then going on the Afghan in bigger size. Thanks 😊

If you cannot find the spots to drop down; are you making sure your doing the “2A/3A” the A rows correct. Chaining and sc in the correct spaces? I’m not sure how I can help without seeing what it looks like.

I purchased the kit and have been "trying" to crochet it. I certainly am not a beginner - and I did want to challenge myself - but this pattern is literally driving me crazy. What yarn did you use when you made the afghan shown in M Mazim's catalog? Because this one is coming out very bulky and the other side looks very messy. I would appreciate hearing from you when time allows. I plan on returning the kit (minus the two skeins I've started) and would like to crochet one with a finer (perhaps fingerling) yarn?
@mjsoffthehook
Жыл бұрын
I used the exact same yarn, Mary Maxim Starlette yarn. The Afghan in the catalog is done in the Mary Maxim Yarn. The back should not look messy it should look like stripes. This pattern is an intermediate design and with the 18 stitch repeat it is definitely not an easy pattern if you are not familiar with mosaic crochet. The blanket should not be too bulky, mine does not seem bulky it seems like a good blanket weight. I would certainly not recommend using a fingering weight for this blanket. The blanket would come out way to fine and show too much of the other colour you are hiding with the drop downs. A DK weight should be ok if you want to go down in weight. The size will obviously come out smaller but since it is a blanket you will just adjust your chain using the multiple to the size you would like the blanket.
