In this alternate style of mosaic crochet, the project is reversible, with the main color being predominant on the right side and the contrasting color being predominant on the wrong side.

Spike SC are used to give the project texture and the ends are turned into fringe. There are options given in the pattern for 2 different styles of fringe used to finish off both ends of each row, thus eliminating the need to weave in tails.

Pattern is written in US crochet terminology and includes written instructions as well as a mosaic crochet chart for crocheting the scarf.
