Class: How to Doodle with Jamie Lomax

Doodles by Jamie Lomax of Pacific Knit Co. are modern and whimsical colorwork motif patterns that enable knitters to design and knit exactly what they want!

The Doodle Framework has three simple steps:
1) Pick your Base Pattern Shape (cowl, hat, mitts, etc),
2) Pick your Doodle Motifs, and
3) Pick your Yarn Colors.
Then just start knitting!

During this class, we’ll deep dive into each step and learn how to choose and modify your base pattern, how to re-create your master chart using Doodle motifs, and how to build cohesive yarn palettes that work for colorwork. Afterwards, you’ll have the confidence to create your own unique colorwork projects, which gives you endless customization with just one pattern!
