Introduction to Mosaic Crochet

Join Icelandic textile artist Tinna Þórdóttir Þorvaldar for a hands-on introduction to mosaic crochet using her iconic Havana pattern. Designed as a beginner-friendly project, this workshop will guide you through creating a small swatch while exploring the fascinating colorwork technique that makes mosaic crochet both visually striking and surprisingly simple to master.

Tinna’s Havana afghan features seven different mosaic patterns, each a variation of the original Apache Tears design. In this session, you’ll learn the fundamentals of mosaic crochet and gain confidence in working with color and texture.
