So instead of cutting and tying off after each row I need to continue on. This causes the next row to begin in a different area than the pattern shows and thus ending in a different spot.

Instructions

Particularly starting with row five and six. A lot of thought has gone into writing the pattern for a single colour AND for using multiple colours. This is NOT because you are changing colour, but because the next round starts in a different place to where the previous round ended. This has been done for neatness and will happen less and less as the pattern progresses. So wherever the pattern specifically instructs you to fasten off, you do need to fasten off, regardless of how many colours you choose to use. I just bought the yarn to make a start on this blanket — but all the different colours are going back now!

Isla, I am so pleased you like my single colour Sophie! I like her in the paler colours for a single colour version myself: Big hugs Keith x. Making the CAL in one colour allowed me to focus on how to read the pattern correctly without resorting to a video. I am very happy I did so, and I also adore my Sophie and the detail you get to see in the stitches and the basic pattern.

I imagine that will be just as stunning. I just have to decide on the color. I met her at my work experience placement and forget the reason why I was there to begin with… I had a heart attack when I saw her desk covered in crochet projects and patterns everywhere! Instead of talking about work, we were there for about 20 minutes talking crochet! Thank you both so much for such gorgeous patterns. I will upload a picture when I finish Sophie: Thank you so much for commenting. I look forward to seeing your maroon Sophie completed. Jenny is a gem! You are a gem, Dedri.

This one looks fantastic.

Do they sit and ponder these steps out, kind of like the thinking man statue I have always admired? Powerful lot of thinking going on there!!! I think it looks absolutely amazing.

Sophie’s Mandala Pattern {Large}

P So no one-way colorway for me, but if I had, I would use it as a blanket on the sofa: Anette, I know what you mean. Try as I might, I cannot do a single-colour project, but I so wish I could!!

    • I have to say, I found the single colour work almost meditative. As a novice crocheter at the time, it allowed me to focus on my stitch work and neatness as opposed to being distracted by colour changes. I would like to make a multi coloured version at some time, but it will have to be carefully planned! Thanks for all the pictures. Start in any stitch around with a standing single crochet.

    Sophie’s Mandala Pattern {Large}

    Make a crab stitch in each st around. If you are not familiar with the crab stitch, see this video tutorial. When you get to the end of the round, make a crab stitch in the same stitch as the standing single crochet. No need to join with a sl st. Just fasten off and work away your tail of yarn. Remember to subscribe to my Weekly Newsletter if you would like to be kept in the loop. The patterns for turning the mandala into a square and then a continuous blanket, if you like can all be found HERE. Part 4 is the squaring up bit. I absolutely looovvveeeee this pattern!

    Thank you so very much for sharing. I am going to make this for my daughter who loves this kind of thing and know that she will cherish it always. I am making one for my niece, Sophie. Remember to share pics with us Cyndi! We love seeing all the Sophies blossoming away out there worldwide: I stumbled upon this on pinterest and my heart stopped! This is absolutely stunning!

    My question is, is there a way to make this pattern blanket sized? How would I go about doing that? Christa, at the start of the written-only pattern there are links to each of the 3 photo tutorials that accompany the pattern. I thought the way you wrote the pattern was very clear and concise plus a very beautiful, fun pattern. I think if you are a beginner, this pattern might be a little tough to take on. Thank you for sharing this. It will be tough, because it is not an easy pattern, but I continue to be amazed at the amount of beginners that manage to follow the instructions.

    This was the first crochet pattern my sidekick Jenny followed when she decided to swap her knitting needles for a crochet hook for a bit.

    She frogged a lot, but she made the whole garden and it was beautiful. I ran on to this pattern and I think it is just absolutely beautiful. In fact I might just put the other one to the side and at least make the Mandala. Would it be possible to get the colors that you used because they are so beautiful together? Thank you for sharing this pattern.

    Hi Bobbi and thank you for your lovely comment. I absolutely love this pattern and the colors used. I am currently working on it and though I love seeing the progress I have to say that some of the pattern is written much more difficult than it needs to be. Tracy I appreciate your feedback and am sorry that you find the pattern hard to follow. I want everyone to be able to make Sophie regardless of their skill level and the joy people get from accomplishing something they thought way above their skill level is absolutely invaluable to me.

    The reminders of where certain stitches should fall although tedious to read on each repeat are essential to avoid frogging later on, if you keep in mind the skill level of the audience I am catering for. I am glad that you have managed to make your own cheat sheets and hope that they will help make the pattern more pleasurable for you if you ever do attempt it again. I think I might have to retract some of my comment lol. When I wrote the above review I was only on round six and many of the instructions seemed redundant.

    I guess because they were pretty easy short rounds, but when I got up into the higher numbered rounds with longer stitch patterns it sure came in handy and I got used to it. I am not new new to crochet, but not a pro either, so I understand where you are coming from wanting to appeal to every level. I do appreciate the detailed instructions because I did have to click the links to a few of the special stitches to learn them or get a refresher……and these type of details in patterns are what helped me get to the level I am today. I still make quick notes to use as a quick reference during each round but the details are definitely appreciated.

    I saw one done in all white made into a pillow with a red lining behind it and it looked just awesome. Keep up the good work, I look forward to doing more of your patterns. I have been looking for something stunning to make for myself and I cant wait to do this one! Hi, love this pattern!!! However, I think I must be being a bit dense — the pattern says the materials needs is approx. For the whole rug or each colour?

    This square is only To make a large rug, you will need to use strands of yarn together and a really big crochet hook like a 10 mm. I am so excited about this pattern! I could kiss you! LOL I was just going to begin a search for Mandalas…rug size! Thank you so much for the pattern! I hope you love making it, but if you get stuck at all, just holler x.
