2022 June Cat
June Cat is the 6th square in my “2022: A Year of Cats” eBook. This square is the “o” in the “Love” miniseries as well! As usual, it comes with charts and the written pattern for both the interlocking crochet technique and the overlay mosaic crochet technique.

New Addition to Sonic Screwdriver
