The Bowl-Mat for Mulligan pattern uses Groundhog Peggy’s technique, a version of tapestry crochet, for crocheting a picture afghan. A video for the technique was formerly available on Groundhog Peggy’s channel,

This picture afghan technique is worked in blocks of six stitches:
— one row (the “odd row”) follows a dc, sc, dc repeat,
— the next row (the “even row”) follows a sc, dc, sc repeat.

For every row, work stitches over a second strand of yarn as in tapestry crochet.

The sample was crocheted in cotton worsted-weight (standard weight 4) yarn using a size 8-H (5.00 mm) hook. Gauge is not too important, but you want your stitches to be dense to make a sturdy cloth. Use a hook that is comfortable for you with the yarn you choose. For the sample, my gauge was 14 st = 4 inches (14 block = 12 inches). At that gauge my bowl mat was about 17” wide and about 9” tall.
