Malik the Malign: Crochet Placemat Pattern
You might have noticed, I am not great at naming my patterns. I am trying to get better at that. This pattern has a strange name. When I was drawing it, my kids were listening to a kids show and I decided the bad guy had a pretty neat name: Malik. And he is bad,
‘Evelyn Series’ of Interlocking and Mosaic Crochet Patterns

SWAK Blanket Pattern
I am not a fan of made up holidays… or deadlines. I fully intended on publishing this bundle of patterns by January 14 so that you would have a month before February 14 to get it done. It is already January 19, so I am behind schedule. Sorry, my bad.
The silly thing is that these patterns have been in my drafts list for a few months already! I just let too many other fun and exciting things get in the way of finishing the written instructions.

My little SWAK (Sealed With A Kiss) Blanket is only two panels by two panels. Each panel is a “40-window” square which works out to about 20″ when done with Worsted Weight yarn. You might want yours to be bigger if you use a lighter yarn or plan on doing some snuggling under it. Just make more panels!
P.S. thank you to my friend Kimberly Windsor-Johnson for helping me name it!
You can get the blanket instructions, including the patterns for the three different squares used, here on Ravelry or here on Etsy.
