Love that this design is reversible Ellen. 💗

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Thank you, me too!

[@carleenroberts6002]

Fun colors! I like when a stitch pattern makes a reversible fabric. Bonus ponts when I can carry colors up the side.

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Yes! I love colorwork without all the ends.

Truly appreciate the differing crochet type tutorials. Thanks from Australia 🐨🐨🦘🦘

You are so welcome! Thank you for commenting!

Hi Ellen, I was wanting to use this stitch for a sweater vest but I’m unsure on how you would decrease for the neck and arm holes. If you could help I would really appreciate it. Thanks for this stitch.💕

[@theastewart6721]

Very pretty Mosaic pattern Ellen! Thanks for sharing!

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

You are so welcome!

🤗🤗

[@nancygivens4792]

Thanks for the beautiful pattern. I have the yarn I'm going to use, brown beige and blue and starting it today. Crochet is very relaxing and productive 😃

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Yes! Sounds beautiful!

[@AmberLUVSBTR]

I found this so much easier to follow than others...I wanna make a cool gift for a friend but I couldn't figure out how to make the colors work!!!

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

I’m so glad to hear that!

[@bratsmom6749]

Good morning, Ellen! Love this swatch pattern! Maybe Brat will need a new blankie like this! You make everything look so easy! Thank you! Brat is asking how Hobi is doing. Hope he’s recovering well! 😻❤️🐶💕

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Thank you! He is doing well, still in a cone. He has some mysterious swelling that I am worried about but he has all his input/output functions so I’m trying to just trust.

Hi 👋 & thanks for the tutorial 🥰 I have to admit I haven’t been able to start a project with mosaic patterns yet, feel a bit embarrassed, specially after requesting tutorials , but I definitely have plans to, once I am done with the current projects ☺️ I am working on a lace shawl (knitting)and a lace top ( crochet) ; thanks 🙏 again

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Follow your inspiration :)

[@jewelofgod4262]

Is this the basics of the trio blanket? I've been waiting so long to learn this! I'm very excited about this video . Ty☮❤🙂

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

I don't know the Trio blanket, but I'm glad you like it!

[@dakotagetz475]

Gorgeous! I so want to do this pattern!

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

You can do it!

[@bonnierudio2487]

Really mosaic styles would love more different designs

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Thank you! I have more in line!

[@mrsmoo818]

How do you end it without the big holes at the top?

[@tomege2677]

Just wondering how you hide the single yarn up along the edges of the project? Do you slip-stitch the up coming color to get it to the new position to start it’s color row?

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

I just allow it to float up the side and then work over it when I add an edging.

[@AbcXyz-yl5xy]

Beatiful

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Thank you!

[@ClubCrafteria]

Wow, lovely stitch and Lovely colour combinations. Enjoyed watching your video and learnt how to do this stitch. Let me give a try in my channel for making a baby blanket out of this stitch.

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Please do! Please link back to my video and give a shout-out in return.

[@jennaellis4178]

So would this then require a border to hide the colors being carried up the sides?

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Yes, ideally.

[@InstahGrump]

I know this video is quite old, but do you have a way for increasing and decreasing in the stitch I love to make a sweater with this stitch.

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Hi, for increasing, I would start by increasing normal dc stitches along the beginning and ending of each row, depending on how fast you need to increase. Then, after a few rows, when you have enough to complete a new repeat of the pattern, then go ahead and start the pattern. It might take three or four rows to do it to decrease. I would either cut in several stitches by slip stitching over or if you want to do a gradual decrease, then you would double crochet two together on either edge until you decrease to the next repeat.

[@InstahGrump]

Thank you! @@EllenGormleyCrochet

[@lesleyoliver5582]

Sorry but the link to “. 7 mosaic stitches” isn’t working. The title comes up in the side bar yet YT recommended videos are what is shown 🙄😩.

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Darn, thanks. Try this link in the meantime? Thanks for watching! kzbin.info/aero/PLydbs1yU7srpxCf5tbGNIi8m_qv5zu5vO

[@kaycook2949]

Do you do a border when finished?

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

You can! I would, to cover the floats.

[@amy-ov9ed]

How do you work the final row?

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Instead of chaining Three, use three single crochets

[@amy-ov9ed]

@@EllenGormleyCrochet Thank you!

[@sueprizler5818]

How do you finish it , border?

[@EllenGormleyCrochet]

Any border that is the same multiple as the stitch! Also you cannot go wrong with crab stitch or one of these: kzbin.info/aero/PLydbs1yU7srrkksgMLl_2E9twuXgues-y
