Foundation ch 385 in E.\u003cbr\u003eEnglish instructions, US crochet terms and right-handed directions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTWO TECHNIQUES\u003cbr\u003eTapestry: chart stitches use BLO single crochet on both RS and WS.\u003cbr\u003eMosaic: a five-color tapestry-overlay hybrid. Change colors within rows and work anchored overlay DC only at AX\/BX\/CX\/DX cells. Unmarked A\/B\/C\/D\/E cells are sc. X occurs on an odd RS row where the current cell and two cells below have the same color. The full stitch instructions and a visual reading example are included.\u003cbr\u003eMosaic CUT uses BLO sc. Mosaic NO-CUT uses BLO sc on odd RS rows and FLO sc on even WS rows. Overlay stitches occur only in marked odd-row positions.\u003cbr\u003eBoth techniques carry all five yarns through every row, enclosing the FOUR inactive strands in every stitch, including each DC anchoring loop. This produces a dense fabric; choose yarn and hook from a washed swatch with the drape you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCUT AND NO-CUT\u003cbr\u003eEach technique contains separate setup and every written row for BOTH alternatives.\u003cbr\u003eCUT: all rows right to left, with RS facing; fasten off all five colors each row.\u003cbr\u003eNO-CUT: keep all five yarns attached and turn after EVERY row; odd rows right to left, even rows left to right.\u003cbr\u003eChoose one method. Row 1 is at the bottom and column 1 on the right. Written sequences are already in working order. Complete all 380 picture stitches across page joins before moving up one row. Add edge stitches only at the two outside edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREADABLE CHARTS\u003cbr\u003eEach complete PDF includes 168 A4 sections in 12 columns x 14 bands. Each section has 31-32 columns and 40-41 rows. At 100% \/ Actual size, every cell is 5.5 mm square. Check the 10-cell \/ 55 mm ruler on each sheet.\u003cbr\u003eCharts include color letters, stitch marks, row and column numbers, stronger lines every 10 cells and essential reading rules. Mosaic marks are 8.2 pt bold; Tapestry letters and coordinate labels are 9 pt. Written sequences use 10.3 pt text and visible direction arrows.\u003cbr\u003eTwo assembly-map pages show the left and right halves with exact section ranges. Matching large-format vector single-page charts are for screen zoom. Use the A4 sections for printing; fitting a whole chart to one A4 sheet reduces cell size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYARN AND FINISHED SIZE\u003cbr\u003eUse five smooth yarns of equal weight, a suitable hook, markers, scissors, a blunt needle, tape measure and scale. Make separate samples for the selected technique and CUT\/NO-CUT method.\u003cbr\u003eThe 10-page yarn guide supplies complete sample rows, separate color weighing, edge and chain calibration, size formulas, illustrative calculations and two border options. The measuring panel approximates the picture's color and stitch proportions; sample additional motifs when tension varies.\u003cbr\u003eThe offline calculator starts with blank measurements. Enter all five color weights, washed gauge, individual yarn labels and ball sizes. It includes picture yarn, side edges, foundation and lifting chains, an adjustable E outside border (default 12%), CUT tails and reserve (default 10%). Each color is rounded up independently to whole balls.\u003cbr\u003eAt 15 cm per end, CUT tails add 171 meters PER COLOR. NO-CUT has no repeated-row tails.\u003cbr\u003eBody width = 384 x washed 20-stitch width \/ 20.\u003cbr\u003eBody height = 570 x washed 20-row height \/ 20.\u003cbr\u003eFor a 10 x 10 cm measured panel, the body is 192 x 285 cm before an outside border. At exactly 5 stitches and 5 rows per inch, the picture is 76 x 114 in and the body with side stitches is 76.8 x 114 in. These are gauge examples; use your own measurements. An outside border adds twice its width to each dimension.\u003cbr\u003eYarn quantities in the worked examples demonstrate arithmetic. Use personal sample measurements for purchasing yarn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePACKAGE\u003cbr\u003eTwo complete pattern PDFs; two single-page vector charts; a 10-page yarn\/size\/finishing guide; five-color offline calculator; original cell PNG and CSV; full-picture preview; complete written-row CSV; English and Chinese product descriptions and start guides.\u003cbr\u003eDigital pattern only. Yarn, tools and a finished blanket are not included. The numbered ornaments form one continuous picture; this pattern does not add separate pockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePAGE GUIDE\u003cbr\u003eMosaic: 272 pages.
