Welcome to Night Vale Applique | Free Crochet Pattern

Due to some infiltration threats from that nasty, awful town Desert Bluffs, all Night Vale citizens are required to wear this symbol on their clothing, or, preferably, sewn onto their foreheads, so the Sheriff's Secret Police can distinguish good, law abiding Night Vale citizens from those nasty, awful, infiltrators from Desert Bluffs. These symbols will not be provided and must be crocheted by the wearer. Please note that crochet hooks are still illegal in Night Vale, as are yarn, needles, and thread.
