Meiju K-P has compiled 22 patterns in her debut book, Contrasts: Textured Knitting, that features her signature effortless looking cables, detailed magical lace, and seemingly perfect symmetrical patterns. From hats, sweaters, cardigans, ponchos, and more! K-P designs patterns that are engaging and perfect for challenging yourself to new levels.

MAJA HAT

The Maja Hat features a unisex style with a twisted stitch pattern that is worked without a cable needle and becomes easier to knit round by round. The stitch pattern is the same as in the Maja Jacket, so the hat is a perfect way to try out and learn the stitches. The hat has three written sizes so it can be knitted for the whole family.

PATHWAY

The Pathway shawl features a reversible cable pattern knitted from side to side. You don’t have to think which side you are throwing around your neck: the shawl is always the right side up.

ALKU

This top-down, cabled cardigan, named for “the beginning” in Finnish, features inset slit pockets. The front’s long, dramatic V-shape meets at the waist. Reverse stockinette triangles at the underarm create Alku’s A-line shaping.

Each of the Core Doodle Decks includes 51 unique colorwork charts, 2 cowl patterns – one long, one short – and an instruction card, all wrapped up a custom printed cardboard tuck box. Doodle Expansion packs add 24 brand new charts.

Grab them all to complete your Doodle Collection and knit your Doodle Cowl again and again, choosing and new motif each time!

Whether you are looking for a stocking reminiscent of Christmases past or love a fresh twist on tradition such as the Santa hat or mitten "stocking," you'll find just what you need in this collection.
