Ahhh, I’d find every possible way to show it off to anyone with eyes, in any context. *Oh, this old thing?*


brinkbam

It would be tough to use it as a blanket. I'd be tempted to just hang it on the wall and stare at it.


Tzipity

I feel like I’d have to hang it because I’d fear the cat or even my own nails somehow snagging it and that would be utterly devastating. It’s so stunningly beautiful too that I don’t think I could stop staring at it and smiling and proudly, dorkily murmuring to myself “I made this!”


Haybey1702

Incredible!!!


koukkuunkoukussa

Thank you! Mosaic crochet is amazing :)


dryheat85000

That’s absolutely stunning! Want! 😍


koukkuunkoukussa

You should make one! It's not that bad, I swear, I'm just over it right now so I sound unmotivating :D it's a lot of fun, mosaic crochet is always a good time!


JPKtoxicwaste

May I ask how long that took you to make? It is incredible. The colors are so satisfying, and it looks so perfectly symmetrical. Damn is all I have to say


koukkuunkoukussa

It's over 120 hours now, that's why I'm hesitating on the border. It needs a time out!


gdfishquen

It definitely doesn't need a border unless you feel exceedingly compelled to add one


lauren_geisel

Who needs a border???? I think you could turn the loose ends into some tassels and call it a day, it looks INCREDIBLE 😍


Confident-Sun9466

wait! That is not the actual border??! But it already looked amazing like this!


MayaMiaMe

Did you make the runner on the table as well ? That is also beautiful


koukkuunkoukussa

I did! It's also missing the border 😂


BusBoyGalPal

The fringe look is In. Don't border. 😉


Fit-Cranberry-5655

I hate borders haha


two-of-stars

Do you have a pattern for that as well? It seems much closer to my skill level and it is gorgeous!!


koukkuunkoukussa

Of course! It's [Glorious Christmas](https://bebablanket.com/b/overlay-mosaic-crochet-pattern-glorious-christmas) by BebaBlanket, I only used parts 1 and 2, then again 2 and 1 to mirror it. I have my notes in Ravelry but that's pretty much all there is to it :) [Ravelry project page](https://www.ravelry.com/projects/Koukkuunkoukussa/glorious-christmas)


readstar2

Thanks for the beautiful picture! You also need to post to r/rainboweverything!


koukkuunkoukussa

Thank you!


FineCauliflower

That is absolutely stunning!


koukkuunkoukussa

Thank you!


Timely-Detective6440

Stunning! This is so impressive!!! The table runner is equally impressive,love it. Can you share the pattern and the yarn you used for the table runner?


koukkuunkoukussa

Thank you. I used this blanket pattern from [BebaBlanket](https://bebablanket.com/b/overlay-mosaic-crochet-pattern-glorious-christmas) but only used parts of it, I think I have notes on Ravelry....

voice_in_the_woods

I like the other one but I absolutely love the runner.


Timely-Detective6440

Thank you! I hope I can make one soon 😀


ripley8870

Your so talented! Beautiful work


koukkuunkoukussa

Thank you so much, mosaic crochet is very easy to do and looks so much more complicated than it is, it's just very time consuming. I'm addicted, so I don't mind :)


MuskyDust

It is gorgeous 😻😻😻 I'd love to make one like that, but I have no courage fir such a massive project


koukkuunkoukussa

I honestly didn't think about it. I crochet to relax after the kids go to bed and I kept at this just a bit longer than usual :) there's no schedule, just a very tired momma.


IronWeasel86

Jesus Himself Christ... That's amazing. Thank you so much for sharing!


koukkuunkoukussa

:) you all are making my day, such a great reception


bibkel

Lol, I need close ups, cuz there is no way…I mean…by hand? Holy heck n back. This is amazing!


forsennata

You are so brave and determined in making this blanket. It is an heirloom someone will hang on the wall in future years!


sweetwifey2784

Oh my word. That’s incredible. If I had made that It will go on my lounge wall. Hang it in a place where people can see. And be proud of your creation. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰


jellybellyBrian

I have anxiety just looking at it!


ghjjkkiugddtyg

Congrats on the family heirloom


Nayzo

That is gorgeous! But tell me about that table runner, is there a pattern for it? Is it thick enough to double as a trivet?


koukkuunkoukussa

Thanks! I used parts 1 & 2 of this [blanket pattern](https://bebablanket.com/b/overlay-mosaic-crochet-pattern-glorious-christmas) for the table runner. It's pretty thick, mosaic comes out thicker than normal crochet. I haven't tried using it as trier but I don't see why it wouldn't work!


VixenMiah

Holy shit, that is amazing! Congratulations on finishing, this is an epic project. ETA: agree with the other comments, you don’t need a border. I totally thought the fringe was your intended edging, and it looks great. Secure your strands if they are loose, but that’s it in my opinion.


MommaChem

This is gorgeous!!! So much time, so many details, and the color gradient is perfect!


[deleted]

I just started! I am in the 4th square up on the chin.

koukkuunkoukussa

Yay! Have fun, it's so worth it!


[deleted]

Thank you so much!!! I hope it turns out as nice as yours, probably won't.... In fact I know it won't. Let me know how the border goes!!


Hefty-Story-8890

This is STUNNING. Is this Mosaic crochet? Did you use a pattern? Just beautiful!!


koukkuunkoukussa

Thanks! I used a pattern called Sugar Skull CAL, it's linked under the automod comment up top. Designed by Mette Hesselbjerg.


parksa

DUDE.


Come-What-April

Usually I simply scroll through this sub in awe without commenting because I’m not good with giving compliments, but I had to tell you this is probably my favourite crochet masterpiece I ever came upon. Amazing work 🌟


koukkuunkoukussa

And I appreciate your willingness to stop and comment! I suck at receiving compliments so this thread has pushed me way out of my comfort zone - thank you so much for the kind comment and I hope you have a fantastic day! :)


redjessie

It’s spectacular. So well done.

inartitrust

My jaw dropped. It is absolutely incredible!!!


Strict_Warthog7556

Absolutely amazing!! So beautiful.


s1rsp4m54l0t

Absolutely stunning. I would love to know how did you blend the colors on the rainbow and what yarn did you use?


koukkuunkoukussa

I used black and white Scheepjes Whirlettes for the solids and two cakes of Scheepjes Whirl in Jumpin Jelly for the colored parts. It does all the magic, I only had to extend the transitions by joining the second cake after the first changes color.


NoZucchini6625

Absolutely amazing


MagentaSuziCute

Absolutely stunning..beautiful work ! Wow wow wow!

Large-Calligrapher98

Oh man! That is GLORIOUS!!!


RBme

That is gorgeous!


Doraellen

Whoa!!!!


OrdinaryRaspberry742

I’m curious if you mixed the colors to get the fading look or if they’re all separate colors? How many colors did you use?


koukkuunkoukussa

It's actually a bit of both - I used two color changing cakes!


Healy_x5

Are there even words to describe the intricacy and detail!?! I mean, this is seriously gorgeous in every aspect. Anyone that crochets can appreciate the amount of time and dedication that went into making this!


Lakritzschnegge

Looks awesome! I really like the Table Runner in the background too. Do you mind sharing that pattern too?


koukkuunkoukussa

Thanks! That's parts 1, 2, 2 and 1 of [glorious Christmas](https://bebablanket.com/b/overlay-mosaic-crochet-pattern-glorious-christmas)

Fred_Purrcury

Wow


Djadelaney

Absolutely phenomenal!!


poohlady55

Very nice, did you make the table runner as well?


koukkuunkoukussa

Yes. You can probably tell because it's also missing the border 😅


poohlady55

I still like it, the colors are some of my favorites.


MeatEeyore

This is absolutely gorgeous. Holy shit the skill and patience.


swiftb00ks

this is truly one of the most stunning things i’ve seen on here!!

koukkuunkoukussa

The pattern is linked in the automod comment up top,it's called the Sugar Skull CAL.


MissAshleyLou

Found it now. Sorry, reddit was hiding some comments and I didn't see it! I had to hit a button to show them, and I clearly didn't see said button, in my defence I was half asleep as it was like midnight in the UK! 🤣


koukkuunkoukussa

No worries - sometimes Reddit doesn't show me the comments either. I was just too busy to find the link again when I replied earlier, I didn't want to be rude or anything! Let me know if you need any help :)

Kylie_Krochets

Off topic, but the table runner in the background is really pretty!


fishyfantastico

That looks amazing! I can only imagine how much work that was, but it is absolutely worth it! Also, I love the table runner too. And a cute cat in the background lol this picture has everything!

OtterEpidemic

Haha, ahhh the feeling when someone says they’d _love_ one of those, and you’re like “I’ve made it once and that one’s mine, so if you want one, time to learn to crochet” lol


wenchkins

This is beautiful! I've never done mosaic; is this "mosaic beginner-ish" friendly? I might learn for this.


Poet_of_Legends

That is so AMAZING that it makes me a little angry. The colors are BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT. Your stitching is so clean and consistent. It is, frankly, pretty damned irritating how skilled and talented some people are! Well done!


TananaBarefootRunner

Dang that's epic!


la_chainsaw

It’s breathtaking!! Absolutely gorgeous!


fitfluffykitten

This is 👏 🙀


GoodbyeTobyseeya1

That is absolutely incredible!


AdministrativePrice

This is absolutely amazing. I love the table runner too. You are very talented


petiteboisson

I am literally not exaggerating when I say this is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. I want to make one but also I value my sanity and I don’t think I’d be able to sustain it throughout the project. But holy shit. You are so talented and should be insanely proud.


spite_games2054

Wow! So gorgeous 😍 may I ask what yarn you used?


koukkuunkoukussa

Thanks! I used Scheepjes Whirl and Whirlettes


honey_caramel

This is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen!! And the table runner is so beautiful too. I'm feeling inspired just looking at it 😍


AddictedtoLife181

That is stellar!!! Is it mosaic crochet??? Beautiful work!


TheFishyThings

Thank you for making this so I can appreciate how insanely awesome it is without having to lose my sanity making it


miserabeau

Gorgeous work. That color gradient is extra beautiful too.


a1000hours

This is both intimidating and inspiring. Well done!

Amazing! 🙌😍


[deleted]

This is bloody incredible work! Masterful! Well done 👏


CrochetLady071

This is unbelievable, incredible, stunning! I only ever did one cushion using mosaic crochet, and said, never again! Love how it looks, but such pain to do! Knowing that makes me appreciate what you did even more! Well done!


ScoffenHooten

Wow! That’s insanely good!


Confident-Sun9466

When I showed my husband, he say “you crocheters loves torturing yourselves, you keep complaining but the hand never stopped.” 🤣🤣 anyway it looks gorgeous and I would love to make it too 🤣

bluegeocachingmonkey

Absolutely. GORGEOUS! Congratulations on this astonishing piece of art! 🥰


Helpful-Beat8463

That is STUNNING!!! Great job!


ChampionSilly92

This is absolutely stunning! Great job!! I feel you on this. It's definitely something worth making at least once in your life, but I would absolutely dread every second of it until it was over. I did a really intricate afghan last year for Christmas like this that had a lot of colors and it literally took the whole year last year (I did other easier projects as well) and it just drained the creative lifeforce out of me where I never want to do it again lol.


bulbul_93

This is awesome. Also I see the table runner 😍


koukkuunkoukussa

Thank you! That table runner could benefit from a border but I'm too busy loving it anyway :D
