Pacific Knit Co. patterns are for sale on both Ravelry and on our website at pacificknitco.com. Where you choose to buy is simply up to your own preferences.

If you like to store your patterns in your Ravelry library, it's best to purchase on Ravelry as website purchases don't sync to your library. Ravelry is also good for staying up to date on any potential future pattern updates, as you'll automatically be notified.

If you are looking for Doodle Decks or the Charts-Only option for a Doodle Collection, those are available exclusively on the website (because Ravelry only hosts full patterns).

New releases are listed in both places on the same day. The buy-2-get-1-free offer for digital patterns is available on Ravelry and on our website. o the on-going accessibility issues with Ravelry, my patterns are also available on my website.

Ravelry has some limitations about what designers can upload. They only allow "full patterns", complete with instructions for a finished item, so our Charts-Only option doesn't meet this criterion.

I offer these Charts-Only Expansions at a lower cost, so that you can add to your existing Doodle collection of charts without having to buy a whole new pattern every time. But, for now, they are only available on our website.

Nope! Patterns purchased on pacificknitco.com will be delivered automatically via email after the purchase is complete, including a link to download your new digital pattern PDF.

The link does not expire. However, if you delete it or lose it, our team is happy to re-send it to you. Just reach out to us at support@pacificknitco.com!

That's a great question! Doodles by Pacific Knit Co. are formatted slightly differently compared to what many other designers offer. And with so many different Doodles to choose from, it can be hard to know where to start!

Doodle Collections are available in several different formats:

• Full Patterns that include all the charts for that Collection, full instructions for a knit accessory, a Master Chart that shows the order of charts used in the sample, links to tutorials, instructions for modifications, and sample photos.
• Charts-Only Expansions which include only the charts for that Collection (no knitting instructions), which are great for experienced Doodle knitters who have a few Full Patterns or Base Doodle Patterns already and just need more colorwork charts to add to an existing pattern shape.
• Doodle Card Decks which include all the charts for that Collection formatted as a physical card deck, designed to be portable and easy to play around with to mix-and-match charts as you knit! The Doodle Decks also come with a "How to Doodle" instruction card, and two bullet-point patterns for an Infinity Cowl and a Standard Cowl.

If you want more guidance on how to use the Doodle Framework to make your own customized pattern, we also have a FREE Doodle Workbook that will help get you started on your first Doodle!

Head over to our Doodle Collections Page to see a visual list of all the different themes we have available!

You can also check out our Events Page or sign up for our Newsletter to see what new themes are coming soon!

For the most part, yes.

Every format of the same title has the same charts. So, for example, the Cat Doodle Deck, the Cat Doodle (Infinity Cowl), and the Cat Doodle (Charts-Only) all include the same 24 Cat charts, no matter what format you choose to get.

Some Collections have more than one chart set (such as Autumn, or Ocean). These will be numbered so that you can tell which ones have the same charts, and which ones are a second (or third!) set in a similar theme (i.e. all the Ocean 1 formats have the same charts, and then all the Ocean 2 formats have the same charts, but Ocean 1 and Ocean 2 are NOT the same).

No. No two Doodle Card Decks have the same charts.

There are some cases where a Full Pattern or a Charts-Only Expansion may have charts that are included in a Doodle Deck of a different name - but this is only for the Seasonal Core Decks. The Winter, Autumn, Spring and Summer Core Decks include charts that were originally published under other names. The listings for each of these Core Decks will tell you which Collections are included, and these included collections are NOT available as Doodle Decks on their own.

Due to the added complexities of printing and stocking Doodle Card Decks, not every Collection that is available as a digital pattern has been made into a Deck. This mostly applies to older patterns, however, and the majority of new releases will come out in all three formats (Doodle Card Deck, Full Pattern, and Charts-Only Expansion.

Our Core Decks include 51 charts, and are our seasonal favorites and our Basic Doodle, which includes simple, timeless geometric patterns. Many of the charts in the Core Decks are also geared more towards beginners, with fewer colors per row.

Our Expansion Decks include 24 charts, and include all of our newer releases. Expansion Deck charts may be more complex, including more colors per row, but also include a number of very fun and whimsical themes!

Our Destination Decks are similar to our Expansion Decks, but include 13 charts that are inspired by a particular city or destination.

All Doodle Card Decks come with a "How to Doodle" instruction card. The Core and Expansion decks also include two bullet-point patterns for an Infinity Cowl and a Standard Cowl. 

Our Base Doodle Pattern library is a set of simple knit accessories that are designed specifically to work with any chart from any Doodle Collection. Rather than buying a Full Pattern every time, once you get used to the mix-and-match nature of Doodles, you can simply add any chart to any Base Doodle to create your custom project!

Of course, you can also knit any of the Base Doodle Patterns without colorwork as well!

You can learn more about this on our blog post about How to Use Base Doodle Patterns.

All of our Full Patterns include links to many of the techniques and skills you might need for that particular project.

You can also head over to the Doodle Blog to check out our full library of tutorials and informative posts! We're working on new content all the time, so make sure to check back if you don't see what you're looking for.
