THE BAKING DOODLE STANDARD COWL This pattern is worked in the round, beginning with a ribbed bottom edge, followed by design-your-own stranded colorwork, and finishing in ribbing along the top edge.

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 “Baking doodle” is inspired by love of baking and all the sweet treats! Or you can substitute ANY other Doodle charts!
