To this:

200 stitches per row, 9 repeats of a 30 row pattern. It took quite a while!
Barbara Walker Mosaic Knitting - number 91
I know that a lot of people come looking for free knitting patterns from me. I'm sorry that none are written up and to be honest they wouldn't fit a doll anyway -the requirements for a mannequin are less stringent than a doll. I am loathe to sell patterns that may not fulfill other people's expectations, and to give away free patterns would be unfair on other people who are trying to make a bit of a living from their own patterns.

I always find it interesting how the mosaic patterns seems to come to life when you've finished it. Like a Rolf Harris painting, you don't see the whole picture until the last stroke! Venne Colcoton 34/2, size 20 needles.

Not so much a mosaic, but
the herringbone pattern used on the skirt instead of the sweater.
Venne Colcton 34/2, size 20 needles. |

Another stitch from the pattern
books. The variety is endless. Venne Colcoton 34/2, size 20 needles. |

A very effective stitch for a skirt.

After a break of a few weeks when I made three full size scarves and am still working on another one, it was good to make another of these little beauties.

This is slip stitch pattern
from The Big Book of Knitting Stitch patterns. It has no other name.
Simple to do and more interesting, texturally, than plain four row
stripes. |
