Plumbob Set

Celebrating the Sims, the video game I’ve definitely played the most hours of in my life!

This year is the 25th anniversary of the Sims franchise, and part of the anniversary featured a newly rendered plumbob graphic. I of course immediately wanted to make it in mosaic crochet, but I also didn’t want to leave out the beloved classic plumbob design that’s been around since the start. So here they both are as a set!

These charts are Easy difficulty, perfect if you’re just getting started with mosaic crochet. If you’re looking for a bit more of a challenge, they both also come in a three color version that is Intermediate difficulty. All versions of the chart use a few special stitches.

If you aren’t already familiar with working with three colors in mosaic crochet, check out my tutorial here:
