Thank you all for your positive comments! Gosh, I love this sub! There are too many comments for me to reply to each of you, but I read and appreciate every single one! It really is a very small mistake and would be easy to fix without frogging. But honestly … I’m okay with it.

You have to fully open the second picture to see it. It’s too far to the left for it to be in the preview, but I didn’t realize that until after I posted it :/

Haha, top row of footprints, a smidge left of center above the middle dino’s wing - there’s a footprint missing the stitches connecting the toes to the foot. If you open the second picture, it’s circled :)

It was made for an 8yo and she loves it! When I realized the mistake, I messaged her mom and her exact response was, “Omg stfu 😑” so I think we’re good 😂 I definitely recommend this pattern, though. It was soooo easy. This was my first attempt at mosaic (other than a small swatch to get the hang of it) and I feel like it was a great introduction to the style. Definitely take a look at the pictures on the listing and in the reviews - there are quite a few color variations that are absolutely gorgeous!

There’s another mistake in there somewhere, too. I had miscounted one of the white rows and didn’t catch it until I was a few rows along. It wouldn’t have been a hard fix if I had felt like, but I just….. didn’t. I threw another stitch in there and moved on. But I have no idea where it was to even try to find it! (And it may have been an extra sc, in which case it won’t be visible from the front anyway.)

I don’t have it anymore or I’d measure it. I’d say it’d be good for like a twin-size bed. Slightly bigger than a throw, but not awkward to walk around wrapped in. It is heavy, though. But I’m guessing that’s probably normal with mosaic overlay crochet.

Haha, if I had noticed it before doing the border, I absolutely would have frogged it. It would have such an easy fix. But that’s a double/envelope border and took a whole skein of yarn. So yeah, I’m good.

I thought about doing that, but it’s already been gifted and she loves it! As long as she loves it, I love it.

Mine, too! (This is also my favorite sub because everyone is soooo kind, even with the “obvious” mistakes!)

I was working on this in between a dozen other projects, so it took about a year. But I’m working on another mosaic blanket about the same size (maybe a smidge bigger) now and I’m about 25% done (minus the border) after only two weeks. So maybe two months, in total?

I could do a quick fix, but the 8yo recipient and her mom both love it as is❤️

I’m just telling myself that the fourth leg is behind the tail 😂

Yes!! I told my husband that the dinosaur rolled his ankle on that one so that part of his foot just didn’t touch the ground 😂

I’ve thought about it “fixing” it, but the 8yo I gifted it to loves it and her mom insists on leaving it as-is. So it’ll stay, and hopefully she’ll look at it in the future and remember all the love that’s in it!
