I’m a long time lurker, first time poster. I finally finished my overlay mosaic afghan. I started this in the beginning of August. I used the negative stitch to make it reversible. I never gauge my afghans and just crochet away. I ended up using 20 skeins of Red Heart Super Saver 7oz. I got the pattern from https://littlegreenfeather.com/products/nordic-bloom-overlay-mosaic-crochet-55384. The pattern came with charts and was written out as well.
Only my second blanket, made for my son. I was originally going to do a border but he wants the fringe so I’m going to twist them together. I see my tension was tighter in the beginning, but I love it. So soft and fun to look at.
The pattern is Lomond by Abi McIntyre
Pattern: Amsterdam blanket by u/pixel2piece
The front looks amazing! I’m just worried the back is like layered and starting to not lay flat…
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
(Pattern is from Pinterest, stitching with dk yarn and 3.5hook)
I'm making a Christmas blanket for my sister and planning to put the initials of each family member on a stocking shape. Problem is, she's currently pregnant and doesn't have a name for the baby yet. Is there a good way to surface crochet on top of a section of fully double crochets? I was thinking of just wrapping 2 sc around each dc post in the shape of the letters, if that makes sense. Thanks!
Edit to add the original mosaic letter plan:
I found a beautiful from center chart on Pinterest and its in russian, can someone tell me what the yellow and red y mean?? In the corners? There are also a few xs in there as well.
