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. 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 design-your-own stranded colorwork is then knit to desired finished circumference. Then the two ends are grafted for a seamless infinity cowl, with or without a twist.
