Have you ever had a thought that would not get out of your head, especially when you have other things you need to do first?
Or a song that is playing in the very back of your head, that you start to hum without even knowing it?
When I was studying architecture, I had sudden urges of ‘needing’ to clean. Most urgent, of course, when a design draft was due…
Maybe you can relate.
Well, it was a similar situation with this pattern. I was working on the Claire square in order to bring it to the Wrapped in Jamie Clan as soon as possible, when suddenly the picture for these tiles showed up again and again.
I believe in never wasting a good idea, so I gave in and quickly sketched down the chart for later reference.
The pictures kept coming back though, distracting me from the editing process on Claire. I thought, “Maybe a quick swatch…Can’t hurt and is quickly enough to make”.
This lead to an inset mosaic crochet swatch in black and white.
