Moon Fairy - Locked Filet Mesh (Interlocking) and Mosaic Crochet Throw Blanket Pattern: Chart 265 x 265, Finished size 66" x 66"

This is a crochet pattern in PDF format.

My patterns can be made using the interlocking crochet method (what I call Locked Filet Mesh/LFM) or mosaic crochet. I use single-row mosaic, also called overlay mosaic crochet.

You will receive two files.
One containing the written pattern for the interlocking (LFM) technique, a one-page chart, and a multi-page chart (one is better for screens, the other is better for printing).

And another file with the written pattern for the overlay mosaic technique, instructions for an optional envelope border, instructions on how to use an X-marked chart, and an X-marked chart spread across multiple pages.

Both types of crochet work with one color at a time in alternating rows to create the design.

Interlocking crochet uses only chain spaces and double crochets to create a mesh; the “wrong” side is sometimes as pretty as the front.

Mosaic crochet uses 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.

I have YouTube tutorials available for both crochet methods! Follow this link (https://linktr.ee/LFMandMosaic) to get to my YouTube channel and find my other social links.
