Eagle Eyed Mosaic Crochet Blanket Pattern

I'd like to say there was some deep and meaningful reason for choosing to create this design, but the honest truth is I just really like birds of prey!! So where better to begin than with a massive eagle head!!?!

The pattern is written in US English terms and assumes knowledge of the basic crochet stitches (slip stitch, chain, single crochet, double crochet). The pattern includes beginner friendly instructions on how to do the overlay mosaic technique as well as the envelope border. The pattern itself is provided in both written and chart format.

Crochet Terms: US

Yarn: Any (the pictured example is made with Stylecraft Special Aran in white and empire on a 5mm hook and the final piece is 130cm x 130cm)

Quantity of Yarn: 6 skeins of the main colour (white) | 8 skeins of the contrast colour (blue) | 2 skeins of the border colour (red).

Hook Size: appropriate for the yarn chosen

Skill: Intermediate

Additional Materials: A hook 1 size down from your main hook to create the border.

I create all my designs myself before they are tested by a variety of people from different countries and different skill levels.

Please note that this pattern and support from myself are only available in English.
