ABOUT MOSAIC CROCHET
Mosaic crochet uses one color per row to create crisp, graphic imagery — no yarn is carried along the back of the work. This project has the added bonus of working in the round from the bottom up — no ends to weave in!

This pattern is divided into 3 sections (4 pages each) and is worked in the round from the bottom up. I would suggest using the Knit Companion app (my personal preference as it is brilliant and saves on printer ink and paper), but I have also included layout instructions for the charts if you prefer to print out your pages. The written pattern sections correlate with the charts so they can be used together. I have also included a full chart on one page for those who wish to use Knit Companion (or similar technology) without all the page breaks.
Special thanks to Darcie Russell for testing this pattern.
