2022 Bonus Scratch Cat
This bonus square is included in my 2022: A Year of Cats eBook. But, it will not be included in the all-in-one blanket that is found in that eBook (that has all 12 monthly cat squares in a 4 x 3 grid and allows you to crochet the blanket without joining squares).
You can forever view both the interlocking pattern and the mosaic pattern on my website! Charts are not included in the free version online, but they are available here in the paid PDF.
You will receive one file containing:
- the interlocking written line-by-line pattern
- a one-page chart (81 x 81)
And another file with:
- the mosaic written line-by-line pattern (including instructions for an envelope border)
- an X-marked chart (77 x 77)
The interlocking mesh dots and border lines have been removed for the overlay mosaic version of the pattern.

The Locked Filet Mesh (LFM) interlocking crochet method uses only chain spaces and double crochets to create a mesh; two colors are worked alternately which creates the pattern.
Mosaic crochet is single crochet and double crochet stitches. The double crochet stitches cover some of the other color’s single crochet stitches to create the design. My patterns instruct you to cut your yarn at the end of each row. The back is striped but often gives a faint impression of the pattern on the front (sort of like illusion knitting). See an example here.

I have YouTube tutorials available for both crochet methods! Follow this link to get to my YouTube channel and find my other social links.
