Silk Road Tales
Pattern with diagonal stitches. Overlay mosaic crochet or Interlocking Filet crochet, versions with a solid and with a non-solid background (resembling a waffle or mesh texture).
Skill level: Advanced.
This pattern includes diagonal stitches and requires close attention to detail and careful following of the written instructions or charts.
This pattern can be used for a wide range of projects in different sizes. The versions with a red-to-green gradient background (a full and a square blanket) can be made either in the round from the center or worked bottom-up.
The other versions are designed to be made from the bottom up only – either across the full width, or by working just the Main Panel with an optional envelope border added in the round.
