Overlay Mosaic Crochet Alphabet Schematic

Overlay mosaic crochet is an addictive technique that opens up so many doors to creativity. To make letters and certain symbols, special overlay mosaic crochet stitches beyond the usual single crochet in back loop only (sc blo) and double crochet in front loop only (dc flo) are needed. This schematic shows how to make capital letters of the English alphabet using these special stitches. All stitches are explained with text descriptions, photo tutorials, and charts, with written instructions for each letter of the alphabet.

This schematic is included in my overlay mosaic crochet patterns that feature letters, such as the Mandela towel set with monogram option and Word Play block set. You can drop these 11x11 graphs in whatever pattern you like!
