THE BASE DOODLE MITTENS are an awesome canvas for your design – the simple shape can be used as-is, but it is also a great backdrop for showcasing beautiful yarn, stacking your favorite Doodle colorwork charts together, or even just featuring your one favorite chart! Make the cuff longer or shorter, add texture, customize however you like. The options are endless!

NOTE: Colorwork samples shown as examples of what you can do with this “base” pattern. Charts not included in this pattern.
