Cryptid Doodle (Infinity Cowl)

**THE CRYPTID DOODLE** was inspired by all the creepy creatures of campfire stories! Turn these elusive monsters into a cute and cozy knit with this not-so-scary chart set! **The 24 Cryptid Charts** include a kraken, Cthulu, Nessie, a Yeti, Bigfoot, a carnivorous plant, a jackalope, lake monsters, Mothman, fangs, scales, spiked tails, claws, a full moon, and more! Check out #PKCCryptidDoodle for more inspiration! **For additional pattern formats, please see [Cryptid Doodle Collection.][1]** 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. Use the charts in this pattern, 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 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. **SIZES** Approx. 14, 18, 22 (26, 30, 34) in [36, 46, 56 (66, 76, 86) cm] finished cowl circumference. **YARN** Any DK, light worsted, or sport weight yarn that meets gauge. Doodles are designed to use leftover yarn, yarn advents, or any other small batches of colorways in your stash.
