Not so difficult at all! This is so far the best explanation for the Negative stich I have seen! Video quality is great! Thank you for sharing! 🥰🧶

[@SassenachAustralis]

This is extremely helpful, thank you very much!

[@marilynhighley1180]

Very very helpful. I've wondered about the negative stitch for months. NOW I get it!!! Thank you!!

[@alexandria6894]

This was extremely helpful and very easy to follow. I've been looking for mosaic crochet without flaps in the back. Thank you!

[@marpro765]

No-Flaps Reversible Mosaic! 😊

[@marybusuttil9907]

You are very smart, thank you for sharing ❤️

[@carrietownsend72]

Thank you, this is exactly what I’ve been looking for 🤗

I am so impressed. Such a good explanation and not at all difficult to understand. I have done a few projects of mosaic overlay and of course nobody really likes cutting the yarn after each row. I’m about to undertake a center out project and I see no reason to not incorporate this technique. Thank you.

This is by far the easiest I've explanation for negative (or anchored) stitches I've seen. THANK YOU! Now I think I'll try it!

Beautiful but I don't get it yet ❤

How do you know whether to do a regular single crochet or a negative single crochet?

[@frankyscrochetpatterns]

When you have to do a SC on top of a DC, then you do the negative stitch. You can see that in your pattern or on your work 🙂

[@christymasher]

How do you start the next row? Do you just turn or do you start over from the right side only?

[@frankyscrochetpatterns]

Always start from the right side 🙂

[@sharonchristensen5882]

Love it very easy to follow.Don’t suppose you have a way to do overlay without cutting each row?

[@frankyscrochetpatterns]

I think that can be done with interlock crochet. However, I haven't tried it myself yet.

@@frankyscrochetpatterns Thank you

How much thicker or bulkier does it make the afghan?

[@frankyscrochetpatterns]

The blanket does indeed get thicker, I think about 1.5 times as thick. If you use lightweight yarn (acrylic), the blanket won’t be very heavy 🙂

[@ajonteajonte5877]

How do i startlbegin the whole work?

[@frankyscrochetpatterns]

There is an instruction for mosaic crochet in the pattern. Alternatively, you can search on KZbin for videos about mosaic crochet. frankycrochetpattern.etsy.com/listing/1619878749

[@kbsteph]

How much more yarn does it use to do this?

[@frankyscrochetpatterns]

That’s a bit of a challenging question! It depends on the number of double crochets in the pattern. I think you use about 15 to 25% wool.
