THE SEATTLE DOODLE INFINITY COWL 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.

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. This “Seattle doodle” is inspired by iconic landmarks around Seattle and the PNW. Or you can substitute ANY other Doodle charts!

The Seattle Doodle includes 30 charts including Space Needle, Seattle Wheel, Puget Sound Ferries, Monorail, Pike Place Market, Coffee, and more!
