THE DUMPSTER FIRE DOODLE is inspired by how we all feel sometimes while doom-scrolling. Originally shared in 2025, it was designed to reflect the state of affairs at that time, need we say more?

The Dumpster Fire Chart includes a single chart of a dumpster, on fire.

Since this chart is free, my ask is to use your voice (and your wallet) to support charities and local organizations that support and protect our communities.

AFTER KNITTING YOUR DOODLE, IT’S TIME TO TAKE ACTION

  • Call your representatives and voice your concerns
  • Donate to a cause that is meaningful to you (Email us your donation receipt for a FREE pattern code)
  • Talk to your neighbors and start building community
  • Talk to friends or relatives about what’s happening

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.

The Doodle Cup Cozy pattern is worked in the round on small circumference needles, magic loop, or DPNs. Begin with a short ribbing, work your colorwork, and end with a short ribbing.
