The 2025 Winter Pet Doodle is inspired by spending the cozy season with our favorite cuddly animals! Make matching hats for you and your pet with this adorable Doodle set!

The 6 2025 Winter Pet charts include a cat in winter hat, dog in winter hat, cat in sweater & earmuffs, dog in sweater & earmuffs, cat with scarf, and dog with scarf.

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, beginning with a ribbed bottom edge, followed by stranded colorwork, and finishing in ribbing along the top edge.
