If you are new to angle stitches, I highly recommend trying them first with this free Heart Mug Rug pattern. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/heart-mug-rug-2 This small 7”x 7” project is a great introduction to my angle notation system and includes my full stitch key.

ABOUT MOSAIC CROCHET
Mosaic crochet uses one color per row to create crisp, graphic lettering and imagery — no yarn is carried along the back of the work.

This pattern is divided into 6 sections and is worked 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 if you prefer to print out your charts. 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 and Anita Schadeck for testing this pattern.
