This blanket is very similar to my Preemie Love Blanket.

I have included right- and left-handed instructions for both techniques.
Each file contains:

  • the interlocking pattern
  • a one-page chart (121 x 121)
  • the overlay mosaic pattern (including instructions for an envelope border)

Now includes a bonus chart with the X’s marked for mosaic crochet!

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 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. The back is striped but often gives a faint impression of the pattern on the front (sort of like illusion knitting). See an example here.


I have YouTube tutorials available for both crochet methods! Follow this link to get to my YouTube channel and find my other social links.
