Endless Diamonds Mosaic Blanket - Crochet Pattern
There’s something mesmerising about geometric patterns, and the Endless Diamonds Mosaic Blanket is no exception! Inspired by the beauty of the night sky, where stars glitter like diamonds, this design brings a sense of rhythm and structure to your crochet projects.
This pattern uses overlay mosaic crochet, a technique that might just become your new favourite if you haven’t tried it yet! Here are five reasons why overlay mosaic crochet is so amazing:
Only One Colour Per Row – No need to switch colours mid-row or carry multiple strands. Just work with one colour at a time!
Minimal Ends to Weave In – Unlike some other colourwork techniques, overlay mosaic crochet results in fewer pesky yarn tails to deal with.
Clear, Easy-to-Follow Charts – The structured nature of mosaic crochet means you can follow a graph intuitively, making it a great choice for visual learners.
Fascinating Texture – The raised stitches create a stunning, tactile design that looks complex but is surprisingly simple to achieve.
Completely Customisable – You can easily adjust the size by adding or removing repeats, making it perfect for everything from a cosy lap blanket to a grand statement bed throw.
The Endless Diamonds Mosaic Blanket allows you to explore all the beauty of this technique in a straightforward, satisfying project. Wherever you are on your crochet journey, you’ll love watching the pattern unfold with each row!

Overlay Mosaic Crochet Basics
All rows are worked from right to left.
The yarn colour changes with every row i.e. you ONLY use ONE colour per row – ignore any changes in colour of the chart squares, they simply show what the final design will look like. You will need to fo at the end of every row.
Every row contains the same number of st.
The first and last st in every row is a sc.
The first st is indicated by a square with a letter e.g. ‘A’ or ‘B’ in the chart.
The final st is indicated by a square with a ‘+’ in the chart.
BLOsc are indicated by a square without a ‘X’ in the chart.
FLOdc are indicated by a square with a ‘X’ in the chart.
All FLOdc are worked into the same-coloured stitch two rows down.
The red lines on the chart indicate the repeating section.
Each pattern repeat is 12st wide. This blanket can be crocheted any multiple of 12 wide (+3 st to even out the design). For example, a sixteen repeat blanket would require (16 x 12) +3 = 195st.

The following has been added as per the new General Product Safety Regulation update December 2024, from the EU Commission.
Safety Disclaimer for Crochet Patterns
Crocheting blankets, accessories, garments, decor, or other crochet products is a fun and rewarding craft. However, it’s essential to follow every step of the pattern carefully to ensure that the finished product is both functional and safe. Please note that, as with any handmade item, there are inherent risks when recreating these patterns. By following all instructions closely and taking appropriate safety measures, you can minimize potential hazards.
Safety with Young Children, Animals, and Adults
Always use child- and pet-safe materials when creating items for children or pets, particularly for toys, blankets, or any item likely to be chewed, pulled, or handled roughly.
Ensure the final product is properly constructed, with securely fastened joins and woven-in ends, to prevent unravelling or loose threads that could pose a choking or entanglement hazard.
For small embellishments such as buttons or beads, avoid their use on items intended for children under three years old or pets, as these can present choking hazards.
Blanket Safety for Babies
Temperature Regulation: Babies are not as effective at regulating their temperature, and overheating increases the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). When creating blankets for babies, consider the yarn's warmth and breathability to ensure it is suitable for the intended environment.
Safe Sleeping Guidance: Blankets should be tucked no higher than the baby’s shoulders, and their feet should be placed at the end of the crib or bed. This minimizes the risk of the baby’s face becoming covered by loose bedding.
For further advice, refer to the safe sleeping guidelines provided by The Lullaby Trust.
Handling Tools Safely
When working with sharp tools such as scissors, sewing needles, or crochet hooks, handle them carefully and keep them out of reach of children and pets.
Accidental cuts or injuries can occur if tools are not used properly. Always store tools safely when not in use, ensuring they are secured in a suitable storage container or area.
Important Note
By purchasing and using this pattern, you acknowledge that you are responsible for the construction, use, and safety of the completed item. I am not liable for any accidents, injuries, or damages caused by the finished product or the tools used during its creation. This includes, but is not limited to, blankets, accessories, garments, decor items, or other crochet creations, whether for children, adults, or animals.
