Product Details

Build your own building blocks with these fun overlay mosaic crochet squares! Work every letter and assemble them in order (i.e., A-F, G-L…) to have a set of play blocks with the complete alphabet and a few symbols, or choose any six squares to spell something special like a child’s name or a sweet sentiment like I-L-O-V-E-U.

Each row only needs a small amount of yarn, so this can be a fantastic stash buster! For each block, you will need about 1.75 oz/50 g of colors A and B. Color B uses a little more yarn than color A. You will need about 0.2 oz/6 g of color C for joining. To make the 5 blocks needed for one complete alphabet set, you will need to switch color A, B, and C for the different blocks.

This pattern features a schematic with photos detailing the special overlay mosaic crochet stitches used to make the letters, as well as a layout diagram for deciding how to join your squares.

Pattern shown with Knit Picks Dishie yarn but Cascade Yarns Nifty Cotton is an ideal substitute.
