Sometimes I allow my sense of humor to show through my art. I hope you’ll agree that this pattern is amusing! I don’t feel as amused when my cats climb my curtains. I just wish this was something that happened only on TV for dramatic effect and not based on reality.

This square is a free bonus for everyone who has purchased the eBook. I have emailed it to those who purchased the eBook on Etsy or on my website and it has been added to the eBook on Ravelry and Etsy.

This bonus square will not be included in the all-in-one blanket that will be coming out in December (that has all 12 monthly cat squares in a 4 x 3 grid and allows you to crochet the blanket without joining squares).

And for my birthday, everyone can download “Bonus Scratch Cat” on Ravelry for free! Use code “FREE”, offer ends 11:59pm September 18, 2022.

Or, you can forever view both the interlocking pattern and the mosaic pattern here on my website!

I’ve put the interlocking crochet pattern AND the overlay mosaic crochet pattern for this square here online. Charts are not included, only the written portion. Charts are available in the purchased pattern.

If you’re new to my patterns or to one of these techniques let me go over some basics.

All of my patterns can be made using interlocking crochet (also called Locked Filet Mesh or LFM) or overlay mosaic crochet (that’s the technique where you cut at the end of each row).

Interlocking crochet is two layers of mesh that get created row by row and locked together strategically to show the design. Watch my tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oku_6_hN1w4&list=PLbdEDo49IQroC7Xoj6svR0J0i0HvJU1IM

Overlay mosaic crochet uses single crochet (US terms) in the back loop only and a dropped double crochet in the front loop two rows below to create the image. My tutorial: https://youtu.be/6YwXIqKqWjI

Old patterns and a select few of my new ones will have the exact same chart for both techniques. Most of my new patterns use a chart for mosaic crochet that has been adjusted to remove the unnecessary mesh dots and extra border lines – so the image is the same but technically the charts are different. I also have added X’s onto my mosaic charts that tell you when to do a dropped double crochet.

Regardless of whether the charts are the same or adjusted, the way you read the charts is different for each technique. I always include the written pattern for each technique as well as the charts. You can use one or the other, or both.

I personally prefer to use the written pattern for both techniques. Once I create the written instructions I generally don’t look at the chart again.


Interlocking Crochet Pattern for “Bonus Scratch Cat”

This square is a “40-window” pattern, which means it starts with 40 windows in the foundation trellis. It is easiest to join squares of the same size so it can be helpful to look at the full list of squares of this size if you’d like to mix and match.

KEY

AC = Accent Color. Second color used.
MC = Main Color. First color used.
RS = right side: the side of your work that will show the finished design
WS = wrong side: the back of your project
Front = the side currently facing you
Back = the side not facing you
Ch = chain
Sp = space
Sk = skip a stitch
SC = single crochet
DC = double crochet
F = DC in front, then CH 1
B = DC behind, then CH 1
ES = DC into the last window space
EF = end stitch in front: using AC, DC into the last AC window, working in front of MC
EB = end stitch in back: using AC, DC into the last AC window, working behind MC
ACF = bring the AC yarn to the side facing you
ACB = put AC yarn to the side facing away from you

  • If you chain tighter than me you may need to Ch 4 where I Ch 3
  • Don’t confuse RS / WS with Front / Back
  • Remember, each color is worked into itself only and there is a chain space between each DC

Foundation Rows (41 MC stitches, 40 AC stitches)

STEP 1

Using MC (grey or black suggested) create 40 windows.

I prefer the chainless technique (chain 6, dc into first stitch, chain 1, tr into same space, *chain 1, tr into 2nd part of the previous tr* repeat as many times as needed).

Alternatively, to create 40 windows you can chain 84, then DC in 6th chain from your hook. *Ch 1, Sk 1, DC* repeat until the end. Place stitch marker so your work doesn’t unravel.

STEP 2

With your AC (orange suggested), chain 82. Place MC windows on top of this chain (make sure the end with the stitch marker is at your left) then pull the tail of your AC through the window on the right end (see picture BELOW). DC through the back of the next window into the 6th chain from your hook.

Short sample showing how to put the AC tail through the MC trellis

STEP 3

Using your AC, *Ch 1, Sk 1, DC through the back* repeat to end. Place stitch marker so your work doesn’t unravel. Both stitch markers should be on the same end.

Turn your work and continue at row 4.

Cut and tie off AC

WS

80 MC – Ch3, 39F, ES

Cut and tie off OR add border first.

SC Border

Chain 1, put 2 sc in each gap on all four sides. Add an extra chain 2 space in each corner (corner gap will have 2sc, 2ch, 2sc).

Revised SC border

Chain 1, put 1 sc in the MC gap, and then the second sc should pick up one loop of the AC as well as going through the MC gap. Do this in each gap on all four sides. Add an extra chain 2 on the corners.

FINISHED!

Overlay Mosaic Crochet Pattern for “Bonus Scratch Cat”

Overlay Mosaic Crochet sample of Ashlee’s “Bonus Scratch Cat” crochetd by Linda Bakker. Black used as MC.

As with all my cat squares, this chart is slightly smaller than the interlocking crochet chart. The interlocking crochet chart is 81 x 81, but the mosaic chart is 79 x 79 because the extra border lines (that are unnecessary with this technique) have been removed. The interlocking mesh dots have also been removed, so this is a ‘solid overlay mosaic crochet’ design.

For more squares of this size see my list.

The x-marked chart can be found in the paid PDF. The written pattern is available here for FREE!

KEY for Mosaic Crochet

MC = Main Color: black suggested
CC = Contrasting Color: orange suggested
Sp = space
Sk = skip a stitch
CH = chain
SC = single crochet
sc = SC into Back Loop only
FSC = foundation single crochet: chain 2, insert hook in first chain, yarn over and pull a loop through, yarn over and pull through one loop (chain made), yarn over and pull through remaining 2 loops (SC made); to make the next stitch insert your hook into the chain made previously
DC = double crochet
dc = DC into Front Loop of stitch, 2 rows below
JS = Joining Stitch: insert hook under both loops, pull up a loop, slip stitch, SC in same space
ES = End Stitch: SC under both loops, CH 1, cut yarn and pull through tightly

Mosaic Crochet Technique

  • Remember to skip the same number of stitch(es) behind your dc(s) before doing your next sc
  • The front of your work is always facing you (this is the right side, the side showing the design)
  • You are always working from the right to the left
  • You tie on a new yarn at the beginning of each row and cut it at the end
    • Tails don’t need to be longer than an inch and a half
  • Yarn colors can be anything you like. They need to contrast well and be the same weight (size / thickness)
  • I prefer using a Foundation Single Crochet to create my foundation row because then I have tails on both sides of my work just like all my other rows will have
  • Even-numbered rows use MC; odd-numbered rows use CC

Foundation Row (Row 0): use Main Color (MC)

Use a foundation SC technique to create 79 FSC. Or chain 80, SC in 2nd chain from hook and SC all the way back across. Cut and tie off.

Switch to Contrasting Color (CC) {Even- rows use MC; odd-numbered rows use CC}
