Tinna crochet with IcewearGarn
Glerbrot is a new Mosaic Crochet pattern by Tinna. It is an interactive pattern where you can arrange the various patterns and diamond designs as you like. Furthermore, there is lots of room for color play. You can make this design either in only two colors or mix it up by adding some intarsia and tapestry techniques and add some fun splashes of colors to your piece.

Included in the pattern are separate files for 3 different colorways for the medium size Glerbrot blanket in the wonderful DK weight Saga Wool from Icewear Garn. This is an all charts pattern and comes with user-friendly charts for all the tile versions.
