The Doodle Knit Directory: 200 mix and match motifs and patterns for knitted accessories

The Doodle Knit Directory: 200 mix and match motifs and patterns for knitted accessories is a practical guide to “doodling” with knitted colourwork. It brings together 200 charts that can be selected, repeated and combined to create personalised pattern arrangements across a range of projects.

All charts share the same stitch count and are designed to work together, making it straightforward to experiment with different combinations, colourways and spacing, including the option to add plain rows between charted sections. Author Jamie Lomax includes guidance on using the charts across the patterns, with suggestions provided for each project alongside explanations on how to adapt them to create individual versions.

Synopsis

This directory invites knitters to choose from 200 seasonal motifs and abstract patterns, then mix and match them to build their own colourwork designs. The charts are intended to be combined freely, with options to repeat favourites, adjust colourways and add plain rows for contrast.

Nine accessory patterns show how the charts can be used in practice, with specific combination ideas and instructions for modifying each project. Motifs range from flowers, leaves and mushrooms to squirrels, sheep, birds and other animals.
