I did not find this pattern easy to read. It looks nice but you really have to be careful joining the motifs. I wish there was a video or better instructions . I think I will pass on this one.

Hi there! Yes, I also find intermediate patterns with joining rather challenging. Sometimes it helps to contact customer service for Yarnspirations/Patons for tips and tricks, and/or post questions on our Facebook page to see if our crochet community can give you a hand. That said, there are plenty of lovely patterns available that land in the easy range (my preference especially during this time of year when I'm trying to hook lots of projects for lots of people!), so just poke around and, as always, let me know if you'd like any recommendations. Thanks!

This Cranberry Mosaic Web Throw and Pillow set is perfect for Christmas for its color and design. Red symbolizes many things and this throw and pillow are perfect representation of the Christmas season. The pillow accentuated with pink stitches at the center gives this living room piece a complete look. I can't wait to do this project but in case I do it in time for the holidays, I should start by now. Let's see. Thanks for this free pattern which is clearly written and easy to understand.
