Thank you thank you thank you!!! I’m doing the happy dance!!! I have struggled with both filet and mosaic crochet for months now and wasted soooooooo much yarn. Your inset video has made my crochet life so much easier. Patterns are easier for me to follow and I don’t get lost on the stitch count. Again, thank you sooooo very much 🥰🥰
What a wonderful video that was easy to follow along. Thank you for your patience and staying with your viewers and not leave them in the middle of instructions or just giving a very basic example. Yours was very informative, easy to follow, and you were very articulate in every way. You are a breath of fresh air. And thank you for talking instead of just playing annoying music without a voice. I do not understand people going through all the trouble to make a video and not talk their viewers through the mechanics of the stitch. So thank you for that too. I will most definitely be watching more of your videos. The only complaint is the many ads and I use US terminology and not UK, but that was no problem since I am a seasoned crocheter. So, again, thank you so very much!
Love it!!! Your explanation and chart have made this whole process sooooo much easier for me.....thank you so much for your work and the time you take to teach us all...
This was so helpful! I’ve been crocheting for years but only just having a go at mosaic and was struggling with the pattern I have, these instructions were so clear, thank you!
I found your channel through a search on how to learn Tunisian crochet. I've watched quite a few of your tutorials now and absolutely love your teaching style 😍 So easy to follow and I’m super excited to start new things with the techniques I'm learning. Thank you sooooooo much!!!! Also learned from a video how I can make my own stitch markers from what I've already got by looking at yours 😄
Thank you for this. I started a blanket today, blue and yellow, a chain of 133. I love it. It's so much easier than you would think. Your instructions are always so clear.
It’s so pretty, and so easy once you get into the swing of it!!!🤩Thank you so much, love learning new crochet techniques, hopefully I can start on the Everleigh Blanket soon😊
I love how easy the color changes are in this one! I’m thinking for my pillow covers, I might do this method, but have more stitches between the drop downs so that the proportions are still similar to the overlay method.
I really enjoyed this tutorial 🥰, I’ve only ever done overlay Mosaic, I like the idea of less ends to sew in 😂, but I think I prefer the look of the overlay for me, this version is beautiful too but as of now I’m an overlay girl 😂, I’m really looking forward to see what other Mosaic crochet you come up with 😊🥰
Hi there! I had lots of fun !! It is my first time doing Inset crochet. I have undone it 3 times, somewhere I lost a stich, then I did not change color and reading the chart from the wrong side! All a learning process!! The 4th time it came out so neat that I don’t even have to block it! So what do I think about the Inset Crochet ? I love it just as much as overlay crochet! With out your video I would not have been able to make it. Thank you! Merry Christmas to you all and a Happy New Year 2023 🥰🧶🎄🎁☃️🧑🎄🎅🏽🥂
This is a great similar look to the one side only with fringe pattern, which is not my preference. What I would like to know is how YOU complete the top row when you've finished the length wanted, and what kind of border you suggest to cover over the carried up colors ???
Once you've reached your desired length you can finish off with a plain row of stitches. If you pop over to the corresponding blog post here: bellacococrochet.com/inset-mosaic-crochet/ there are some close up pictures and also a chart 😊 A simple border of DC stitches (UK terms) will hide the carried up colours.
Love the clear instructions ❤ Does anyone know why it’s a chain 2 for 1 skip stitch? I’m curious cuz it’s typically 1 chain for 1 skip stitch. Appreciate if anyone can educate 🙏
It’s to give the chain spaces a bit more stretch as they’ll be going behind the stitches you work in following rows, as opposed to working over and around them 😊
Can you advise on which of the two mosaic techniques more closely matches the proportions of the grid design? I have already made my picture on graph paper and want to replicate it as closely as possible without distortion. Thanks in advance.
Begginer question here but what is an Inset. Thank you for your channel. I've made a few pieces and your videos are so easy to follow. Thank you !!! :)
Thank you, I'm glad you like my tutorials 😊 Inset refers to the style of mosaic crochet shown in the video; it's different from overlay mosaic crochet as the pattern is worked over two rows for each colour and the yarn isn't tied off, so there are no ends to sew in. You can find more info on my blog here: bellacococrochet.com/inset-mosaic-crochet/
I'm glad you like it 😊 The best way to make these bigger would be to use thicker yarn and a bigger hook - you can even hold two strands of yarn held together.
Great tutorial, making it very easy to understand for the beginner. The link to the free graph seems to have gone from the website again or is it only paid pdf
In the pattern, if I'm making a blanket do I repeat all rows including 11A and 11B...then back to 1A and 1B or do I stop at 10B and go back to 1A and leave 11A and 11B for the very last rows of the blanket?
You should leave 11a and 11b for the end of the blanket as these rows act as a border 😊 You should be able to keep adding rows following the pattern by working your skipped stitch and chain spaces before your treble crochet.
Hi, thanks for this video but unfortunately the link for the chart isn’t in the description box. Could you help me locate the chart please? Stay safe and well. Thanks from Australia 🐨🦘😷
Great video! So if I want to go wider, I just repeat the pattern with the 10 stitches, which you have labeled as pattern repeat, and leave the border stitches on the ends. And I can go taller...and leave 11A and B for the end. Correct? What would you recommend for a simple border around the outside? I want to try this for placemats.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it! 😊 Yes, to make this wider you should work your starting chain in multiples of ten plus three for turning, and continue repeating the pattern before finishing off with rows 11a and b. For placemats I think a simple crab stitch border would look great. I have a tutorial for that here: ruclips.net/video/K7XOkueIkNM/видео.html
You will find the PDF chart on my blog - blog.bellacococrochet.com/inset-mosaic-crochet/ scroll down to where it says materials and where it says I also recommend you download this file: Mosaic Inset PDF, so that you can join in with the video. I hope this helps :)
You should change colour the same way each time, by pulling through the new colour when making the last part of the final stitch of a row - I'm sorry if this wasn't made clear in the video 😊
I'm going to sound silly but if you do more chains would you have to do the plus 3 on every 10 increase, so if I increased another 30 on this would I need plus 3 three times?
Not a silly question at all! 😊 You only need to add the three on once, so if you worked an extra thirty chains you would still only chain three at the end. Hope this helps!
If you pop over to my blog you will find the charts for both inset and overlay mosaic crochet: bellacococrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Inset-Mosaic-Crochet.pdf and bellacococrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Overlay-Mosaic-Crochet.pdf. If you compare the two you can see that the inset method is in effect doubling the amount of rows as you are working the pattern back and forth 😊
Yes, you are right, well spotted 😊 On the final chart available on my blog here: bellacococrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Inset-Mosaic-Crochet.pdf this has been corrected - sorry for any confusion.
If you pop over to the corresponding blog post here: blog.bellacococrochet.com/inset-mosaic-crochet/ you will find the downloadable chart that you can follow for the rest of the pattern 😊
I'm sorry. It says,"page not found. I can't read charts anyway. Only written instructions. Is there a link to the written row by row? I'm stuck here after 5B. I want to switch colors now but don't know which row to crochet.
I see no real benefits to this technique when conpared to overlay mosaic. Specifically, it seems the only benefit is management of yarn ends. However, you can do better with less yarn in overlay. E.g. you can just carry your yarns, which takes less yarn than making a second row and it looks neater as well.
It comes down to personal preference I think - working two rows with each colour as with inset mosaic does use more yarn, but also gives more definition as the resulting stripes are bolder. It can also be tricky to carry your yarns with overlay mosaic as you are only working one row, so don't 'return' back to pick up the next colour. You could of course use multiple balls of yarn but this can quickly get tangled 😊
That isn’t UK treble. UK TREBLE: loop around hook, through the stitch, pick up loop, pull through (3 loops on hook) yarn around hook, pull through one loop, yarn around hook, pull through 2, yarn around hoo, pull through 2.

So, again, thank you so very much!
Inset Mosaic Crochet looks faster and uses less yarn, but the texture is less pronounced. Thanks so much! Such a joy to watch!
You're welcome :)
Inset uses nearly twice as much yarn as overlay and takes nearly twice as long to complete.
But yes, it is indeed less textured.

Fantastic I learnt quite a lot. Your graphs are so clearly marked, especially since I only do granny squares.
Glad it was helpful :)

You’re welcome, I'm glad its helped 😊
Than you for this video , I want to know if the pattern is more complicated it's become very difficult ?
I can't seem to find the graph chart to download. Can you please send me the link. Thank you
Just curious, if you did the drop down dc around the ch stitches instead of in front, would it then be double sided mosaic?
Love the clear instructions ❤
Does anyone know why it’s a chain 2 for 1 skip stitch? I’m curious cuz it’s typically 1 chain for 1 skip stitch. Appreciate if anyone can educate 🙏
It’s to give the chain spaces a bit more stretch as they’ll be going behind the stitches you work in following rows, as opposed to working over and around them 😊
Hi! Great video, thank you for sharing and comparing the two techniques! What is the reason for chaining 2 instead of 1 for the skip 1? :)
You're welcome 😊 Chaining two just gives a little bit more room and stops the stitches being pulled close together so that they sit correctly.
Generally for Inset, do the B rows mirror the A row below it? Thanks for sharing this technique!
You're welcome :)
Can you advise on which of the two mosaic techniques more closely matches the proportions of the grid design? I have already made my picture on graph paper and want to replicate it as closely as possible without distortion. Thanks in advance.
The inset mosaic technique creates blocks that are slightly taller, which will more closely match the square shape of your graph paper 😊
Begginer question here but what is an Inset. Thank you for your channel. I've made a few pieces and your videos are so easy to follow. Thank you !!! :)

Do some mosaic patterns tell you to chain one after bs?
It’s possible that you will come across variations in patterns as each designer will include their own personal preferences 😊
Is interlocking mosaic crochet the same as inset mosaic crochet? Is it just different name?
I'm glad you like it 😊 The best way to make these bigger would be to use thicker yarn and a bigger hook - you can even hold two strands of yarn held together.
@@bellacococrochet I don't think you answered my question... Your reply sounds like it was to someone else.😅
Easy to follow thankyou, would be helpful if the chart was in the background with you working.
You are welcome and thank you for your feedback :)
Great tutorial, making it very easy to understand for the beginner. The link to the free graph seems to have gone from the website again or is it only paid pdf

Thank you :)
In the pattern, if I'm making a blanket do I repeat all rows including 11A and 11B...then back to 1A and 1B or do I stop at 10B and go back to 1A and leave 11A and 11B for the very last rows of the blanket?
You should leave 11a and 11b for the end of the blanket as these rows act as a border 😊 You should be able to keep adding rows following the pattern by working your skipped stitch and chain spaces before your treble crochet.
Thanks...love your tutorials
Hiya! Your blog link above for the PDF pattern takes you to the LoveCrafts website on the Caron Simply Soft page.
Glad I'm not the only one with the link problem. I have enough yarn ... LOL!
Sorry, here you go bellacococrochet.com/inset-mosaic-crochet/
@@bellacococrochet Thank you--wanted the graph and couldn't find it LOL.
My swatch was a bit tight on the edge. Is that because I was too tight when doing the chain and begging row?
Yes that's possible - I would try going up a hook size for your starting chain and then sizing back down again to see if that helps 😊
Hi, thanks for this video but unfortunately the link for the chart isn’t in the description box. Could you help me locate the chart please? Stay safe and well. Thanks from Australia 🐨🦘😷
Sorry about that. Here you go bellacococrochet.com/inset-mosaic-crochet/
@@bellacococrochet thank you very much. 🥰👋🏻
Great video! So if I want to go wider, I just repeat the pattern with the 10 stitches, which you have labeled as pattern repeat, and leave the border stitches on the ends. And I can go taller...and leave 11A and B for the end. Correct? What would you recommend for a simple border around the outside? I want to try this for placemats.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it! 😊 Yes, to make this wider you should work your starting chain in multiples of ten plus three for turning, and continue repeating the pattern before finishing off with rows 11a and b. For placemats I think a simple crab stitch border would look great. I have a tutorial for that here: ruclips.net/video/K7XOkueIkNM/видео.html

Why was there a loop for the color change at the beginning of Row 3 but not at the end of the other rows?
You should change colour the same way each time, by pulling through the new colour when making the last part of the final stitch of a row - I'm sorry if this wasn't made clear in the video 😊
@@bellacococrochet No worries! I love your videos!
I'm going to sound silly but if you do more chains would you have to do the plus 3 on every 10 increase, so if I increased another 30 on this would I need plus 3 three times?
Not a silly question at all! 😊 You only need to add the three on once, so if you worked an extra thirty chains you would still only chain three at the end. Hope this helps!
How do you make or change a pattern from overlay to inset and vice versa?
If you pop over to my blog you will find the charts for both inset and overlay mosaic crochet: bellacococrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Inset-Mosaic-Crochet.pdf and bellacococrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Overlay-Mosaic-Crochet.pdf. If you compare the two you can see that the inset method is in effect doubling the amount of rows as you are working the pattern back and forth 😊
Hi,how do you stop the corners from curling in?
When you carry up your yarn, make sure you aren't pulling it too tightly. You may also need to block your finished piece 😊
Please tell me how to continue pattern after row 10. I want to continue but the chart doesn't correspond.
Once you have reached row 10 you can continue adding rows by remembering to work your skipped stitch and chain spaces before your treble crochet 😊
@@bellacococrochet thank you
I notice the chart on your tablet on the vid mentions front and back loops but I thought you didn't do that on inset mozaic. Right?
Yes, you are right, well spotted 😊 On the final chart available on my blog here: bellacococrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Inset-Mosaic-Crochet.pdf this has been corrected - sorry for any confusion.
How to read pattern ?
Only ever done overlay. Why is it chain 2 instead of chain 1. Im confused hy this lol
It’s just so there’s enough room and give in the yarn, otherwise it would cause it to cinch in 😊
@bellacococrochet ohh ok. Lovely, may try this mosaic soon. Thank u for repling
The written instructions and the PDF link for the graph are no longer on the blog post.
There isn’t a written pattern as it’s the chart and video tutorial :)
You ended with row 5B, then what? Row 1 again?
