Yarn: Scheepjes Whirlette (100 g 455 m)

Pattern is in overlay crochet technique, so you work always from right to left on right side.
All single crochets are made in back loops only, double crochets are made in front loops in
stitches laying two rows below. Border stitches are made in both loops.
There are no border stitches marked in charts!
Abbreviations: Chart symbols:
st - stitch Single crochet
X Double crochet
ch – chain X\ 2 double crochets together (right is slanted)
sc – single crochet /X 2 double crochets together (left is slanted)
/\ 2 slanted double crochets together
dc – double crochet /X\ 3 double crochets together
sldc– slanted double crochet
2dctog – two double crochets together
2sldctog – two slanted double crochets made together
3dctog – three double crochets made together
bs – border stitch
*……* repeat

A – work with color A

B – work with color B

C – work with color C

D – work with color D

Main motif has 35 sts, so my shawl has 3 repeats + 2 border st = 107 sts, but you can make
your shawl as wide as you wish
I make first bs as a standing sc
Hide loose ends as you go ‘cause there will be a lot of tchem – I make it as in tapestry
crochet – hide them at the back of work where it’s possible or sew where there’s a lot of
dcs)
Every time when you reach stripes and there’s dc in all row you have to make them like in
mosaic – in sc of the same color two rows below

Pattern
Start with color A and make 107ch, break yarn
R1: A 1sc in every ch
R2: B bs, 105sc, bs
R3: B bs, 105sc, bs
R4: C bs, 105sc, bs
R5: A bs, 105sc, bs
R6: A bs, 105sc, bs
R7: C bs, 105sc, bs
R8: B bs, 105sc, bs
R9: C bs, 105dc, bs
R10: D bs, 105sc, bs
R11: B bs, 105sc, bs
R12: D bs, 105dc, bs
R13: C bs, 105sc, bs
After 13 rows you should have something like this

Mosaic #1
R1: A bs, 105sc, bs
R2: C bs, 105sc, bs
R3: A bs, 2dc, *1sc, 3dc*, 1sc, 2dc, bs

R4: C sldc (two rows below, two places to the left in visible sc of the same color), *3sc,
2sldctog (first leg is made in the same st as previous sldc, second is made in next sc of
row2)*, 3sc, sldc (in same st as second leg of last 2sldctog)
R5: A, bs, *1sc, 3dc* (first and last dc are hidden under the legs of sldc from previous row,
so you have to catch it), 1sc, bs
R6: C, bs, 2sc, *2sldctog (first leg slanted to the right, and second to the left), 3sc*, 2sldctog,
2sc, bs

R7: A bs, 2dc, *1sc, 3dc* (first and last dc are hidden as in row 5), 1sc, 2dc, bs
