This is looking good, too. What pattern are you using? I like the flecks of color in the yarn.

Thanks Melissa. I'm not using a pattern, just my adapted dropped i mosaic crochet stitch. lol You can see the beginnings in this post single colour mosaic crochet.
Stay inspired!

Lovely warm colour, Michelle. It looks nice and soft, too.

Thanks Cheryl. I tore half of it apart and still my sides are straying, so I've just accepted the imperfections and continue on. lol

That truly IS texture. I also like the color you chose with its bits and flecks of dark brown.

Amazing texture! This is gorgeous...I love the color and the nubby texture of the yarn. The pattern is so unique. It's so fun, too, to see fiber art entered in the IA challenge!

Beautiful work with gorgeous texture - and it looks so warm and cosy! I agree, it would make an interesting texural background for artwork.
