Stitches Used In The Crochet Pattern
In this crochet pattern you will need to know the back loop single crochet, long double crochet (described below), slip stitch and single crochet stitch.
Techniques Used In The Crochet Pattern
Crocheting In The Front And Back Loop
This means that you will not crochet through the whole stitch as usual. A typical stitch contains two loops. One in the front, nearest you, and another stitch in the back, furthest away from you. One is called the front loop (the one nearest you), the other one the back loop, the one furthest away from you.
For this pattern you will crochet double crochet stitches through the front loop & single crochet stitches (BLsc) through the back loop.
Mosaic Crochet
To crochet this pattern you will use the mosaic crochet technique, following these 3 simple rules:
- You will use color A every other row, alternating with color B.
- All single crochet stitches are worked in the back loop.
- All double crochet stitches (long double crochet/ Ldc) are worked 2 rounds below in the front loop & this front loop are always the same color as the one you’re working with.
