And what's even better is that there are minimal ends to sew in because it works on a two-row method with the yarn carried up the side of the work. If you're a beginner don't worry, all the stitches you need are covered in the book. If you can work a chain, a double crochet (US single crochet) and a treble crochet (US double crochet), then you can mosaic crochet. While it might look complex, mosaic crochet is actually incredibly straightforward once you learn the basic techniques. One crochet hook and two balls of yarn are all you need to get started. This produces incredible modern geometric patterns that look amazing as throws, blankets, afghans, pillows, rugs, bags and other accessories using a much easier method than other crochet colourwork techniques. You simply skip stitches in one row and connect them by filling in with the alternate colour two rows later. Mosaic crochet is a cutting-edge technique that allows you to work two-colour patterns without having to change yarns in one row. Mosaic Crochet Workshop Book by Esme Crick
