THE ARCTIC DOODLE was inspired by snowbound arctic animals in a winter wonderland! Nestled among the snowy trees and mountains, these whimsical characters will keep you warm no matter how far North you are!

24 Doodle Motifs included are polar bears, penguins, walrus, narwhal, ice bergs, snow-covered trees, snowflakes, and more!

This is a Doodle Series Pattern, which means it includes micro charts intended to be used as mix-and-match colorwork motifs throughout the project. Use the charts in this pattern, or you can substitute ANY other Doodle charts!

This pattern is worked in the round as a tube, from side to side. Beginning with a provisional cast on, the stranded colorwork is then knit to desired finished circumference. Then the two ends are grafted together for a seamless infinity cowl, with or without a twist.
