Dove 40

Dove 40 is a large square that can be made using the interlocking crochet technique or the overlay mosaic crochet technique (2 ways!). The fully written pattern and charts for both techniques are included.

$4.00

Originally this square was created as part of my ‘2020 Holiday Squares eBook‘ bundle. This design was originally created for interlocking crochet and overlay mosaic crochet using the same chart (dotted) and now includes an adjusted, solid overlay mosaic crochet option. Learn more about these techniques at https://ashleeslint.com/tutorials/interlocking-and-mosaic-crochet/.

As always, my patterns include the fully written line-by-line pattern and charts for multiple techniques.

You will receive three files.

One file for:
– the LFM / interlocking pattern
– a one-page chart (81 x81)

One file for:
– the ORIGINAL mosaic pattern
– an X-marked chart (81 x 81 – exactly the same as the interlocking chart)

One file for:
– the ADJUSTED mosaic pattern
– an X-marked chart (77 x 77 – mesh dots and extra border lines have been removed from the original interlocking chart)

The Locked Filet Mesh (LFM) interlocking crochet method uses only chain spaces and double crochets to create a mesh; two colors are worked alternately which creates the pattern.

Mosaic crochet is single crochet and double crochet stitches. The double crochet stitches cover some of the other color’s single crochet stitches to create the design. My patterns instruct you to cut your yarn at the end of each row. The back is striped but often gives a faint impression of the pattern on the front (sort of like illusion knitting).
