About the Overlay Mosaic Crochet Method
In the overlay mosaic method, you are working only on the front side of your work, this means you only work from right to left. This way you are alternating the colors on each row, and cut off the yarn at the end of each row.
The mosaic technique uses only 2 crochet stitches – single crochet which is worked in the back loop of the row below, and double crochet which is worked in the front loop of the stitch 2 rows below (dropped down dc). The dc stitches cover the sc stitches from the row before, and that is why it’s called “Overlay Moasic”.
I know it might sound complicated, but trust me, it is not! If you want to try out another pattern first, you can make my Bohemian Mosaic Placemat, which has a detailed photo tutorial and video tutoial. Or make one of these crochet mosaic patterns: Diamonds mosaic pattern, Christmas Trees mosaic pattern.

The Great Summer Mosaic Blanket Crochet-Along
The Great Summer Mosaic Crochet-Along from Juniper & Oakes and features a lovely mosaic crochet blanket pattern that uses the overlay mosaic crochet technique to craft fun summery colorwork designs without the hassle of yarn tangling or endless ends to weave in.
For her blanket, Erin used the super soft Brava DK yarn by WeCrochet. You can also get the yarn kit for this blanket at a discounted price!
The free crochet-along will run through June 2nd to July 6th, 2026, featuring a 10-section mosaic blanket, when a new section is released twice a week. The charts for each section will be available for free on the designers’ blogs (no free download).
If you prefer to work at your own pace with both written instructions and charts in a cohesive, ad-free PDF, you can purchase the full blanket eBook. The eBook is available for a discounted price during the event.
Materials
For the Great Summer Mosaic Blanket:
– Crochet hook 4.0 mm / G (I love the Etimo Hooks).
– Brava DK yarn
Abbreviations (US)
BBS – Beginning Border Stitch: A standing sc through the post (or the ‘v’) of the stitch below, ensuring that both legs of the stitch on the WS are to the outside of the blanket. (For right-handed crocheters the legs would be secured to the right of the stitch and vice versa for left-handed crocheters.) Click here for a video tutorial.
BLOsc – Back Loop Only Single Crochet: Insert hook in back loop of indicated st, yo and pull up a loop, yo and draw through both loops on hook.
BLOHDC – Back Loop Only Half Double Crochet
ch – Chain
dc – Double Crochet
EBS – Ending Border Stitch: A sc through the post (or the ‘v’) of the stitch below, ensuring that both legs of the stitch on the WS are to the outside of the blanket. (Similar to BBS, but the back legs of the stitch are secured to the opposite side.) Click here for a video tutorial.
FLOdc – Front Loop Only Double Crochet: Yo, insert hook in front loop of st below the indicated st, yo and pull up a loop, yo and draw through two loops on hook, yo and draw through remaining two loops on hook.
Fsc – Foundation single crochet: Insert hook in back loop of indicated st, yo and pull up a lp, yo and draw through both lps on hook.
HDC – Half Double Crochet
RS – Right Side
sc – Single Crochet
Notes
- The pattern is worked from right to left on Right Side only. (If you are left handed, feel free to work from left to right according to the chart below).
- Every row is worked in a different color.
- Fasten off at the end of each row.
- Every row begins with a beginning border stitch & ends with an ending border stitch.
- How to change the width of the blanket: You may choose to repeat the pattern as many times as you wish. Make sure your Foundation Row is made up of any multiple of 48 plus 3 extra stitches. The Great Summer Mosaic Blanket is made using 4 repeats.
- The patterns include a chart and written instructions below. You may want to refer to each.
- The colors on the chart indicate how the finished project will look.
- The pattern is worked up in two colors.
- You can start the pattern by making a foundation chain like the pattern advises, or make a foundation single crochet (FSC).
Save time and work over your yarn tails!
Instead of weaving in all the yarn tails in the end, work over the previous rows’ tails at the beginning and end of each row.
When working a single crochet, keep the yarn tail between your working yarn and hook, then pull the yarn through to finish the stitch.
When working a double crochet, start the stitch normally and when about to pull the yarn to finish the stitch, move the yarn tail between your working yarn and hook, then pull the yarn through to finish the stitch.
At the end of the row, work over the yarn tail before reaching the end of the row.

The Difference Between Overlay Mosaic and Inset Mosaic
The difference between those two techniques:
Overlay Mosaic
- You only work on the front side – from the right to the left.
- Each row is worked with a different color – you cut the yarn at the end of each row, and left with loose ends.
- The sc are worked into the back loops and the dc are worked into the front loops.
Inset Mosaic
- You work back and forth – both on the right and wrong side.
- Each color is worked in 2 following rows – yarn can be carried out on the side of your work, no need to cut the yarn.
- Both sc and dc stitches are worked into the full stitch (both loops).
