THE BASIC DOODLE REVERSIBLE COWL This pattern is worked in the round as a tube, from the bottom up. Beginning with a provisional cast on and a purl edge, the exterior colorwork is worked, then a purled transition row, after which the interior colorwork is worked. The final cowl is folded in on itself and grafted together, creating a reversible, double-thick cowl.
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 “basic doodle” uses simple, everyday motifs that can go with anything for the perfect cowl! Or you can substitute ANY other Doodle charts!
