Thank you for your interest in my latest center out AND row by row pattern, Mandala Spirit. I love the look of a mandala and although it was challenging to do a circle I love the result.
 
IN ENGLISH ONLY, the charts are universal so if you can read them then you can create your own! 
 
I did the row by row version, I used a DK yarn for my background colour and an Aran for my detailed colour, both thicknesses were the same, so they blended perfectly. My blanket with a 4mm hook measures 108cm square [42.5 inches] without the border.
I used for my background, YarnArt Super Merino DK Burgundy [188], 7 skeins, 666g, 1,865m.
My detailed colour, YarnArt Melody in Beige [882], 5 skeins, 500g, 1,150m.
Total yarn usage, 3,015m.
 
With overlay mosaic crochet row by row all single crochet stitches go into the back loop of the stitch and all double crochet stitches go into the front loop of the stitch 2 rows below which will be of the same colour. You cut the yarn at the end of every row and join new yarn at the start of every row, the ends will either be left to create a
fringe, or you can create an envelope border, I have a PDF in the files of my Facebook group, the link is below.
