September Dog is our ninth pattern in the 2024: A Year of Dogs series. This large square shows a dog leaning on a large bone. Each month’s design can be made using interlocking crochet or overlay mosaic crochet.

See more about this year’s monthly square at https://ashleeslint.com/year-of/2024-a-year-of-dogs/.

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. YouTube Tutorials

Mosaic crochet uses single crochet and double crochet stitches. The double crochet stitches cover some of the other color’s single crochet stitches to create the design. YouTube Tutorials
