OVERVIEW
The blanket is constructed using basic overlay mosaic crochet techniques and so is ideal for the adventurous beginner. If you have never used this technique before, I have also included a TECHNICAL ANNEX, which has instructions on stitch formation, hints and tips. It’s a great way to give this method a go.
Monster Mischief was inspired by my favourite video game in the 80s - Space Invaders. For the CAL, I wanted to create some monsters with personality and cuteness and so the Monster Mischief Mob developed! I hope you enjoy the patterns as much as I have enjoyed creating them. They are perfect for that little person in your life.
