If you are new to angle stitches, I highly recommend trying them first with this free Heart Mug Rug pattern. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/heart-mug-rug-2 This small 7”x 7” project is a great introduction to my angle notation system and includes my full stitch key.
Written for Mosaic Overlay Crochet, this pattern includes:
• charts for 3 blanket designs:
XL size: 53”x 69” includes the words “I ♥ My American Staffordshire Terrier”
(This XL size has been added for those who wish to use the full name of the dog breed. The word “Staffordshire” makes this blanket wider than other patterns in my dog breed series.)
Large size: 43”x 60” includes the words “I ♥ My American Staffy”
Small size: 32”x 41” includes Dog Silhouette with Paw Prints
• Detailed Instructions packet
• Photo tutorials
• Video tutorials for each type of stitch used in the patterns
Size will vary depending on yarn weight and hook used. This calculation is based on Stylecraft Special DK yarn (weight 3) with a 3.75mm hook.
Gauge: 5 stitches and 5 rows = 1”
The photo shows a personalized blanket using the dog’s name using my D’Nealian Alphablet font (sold separately https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/mosaic-alphabet-… ). The pattern is not personalized, but space is available in the design should you choose to do so.
