KNITTED HOOD PATTERN (PDF DOWNLOAD)

We were thrilled to team up with our friends at Make Workshop to make this DIY Knitted Hood pattern! This cozy, timeless accessory is as fun to make as it is to wear. This project is knit flat working from the top down before joined into the round. The top is seamed closed using a mattress stitch, with the option of adding vintage crochet flowers (available for purchase here!) around the face opening.  Skills required for this pattern include:  -Casting On -How to knit -Knitting in the round -How to purl -Decreasing -Binding Off -Mattress Stitch -Weaving in ends  Please note that this listing is ONLY the PDF pattern for this design. Materials (yarn and flower embellishments) are NOT included, and photos of finished hoods are for example purposes only.  For yarn, we suggest the Manos del Uruguay yarn in three colors, available to purchase via Make Workshop.  Manos del Uruguay is a special brand of hand spun and dyed artisan yarns that supports rural Uruguayan women. Manos is a non-profit organization that was founded to give women jobs, allowing them to be independent and support their families while being able to live in their home villages.  Fiber Content: 100% extrafine merino wool Yardage: approx. 219 yds / 200 mts per 3.5 oz / 100 g Gauge: 18 - 20 sts = 4" / 10cm Needle Size: US 6 - 8 / 4 - 5 mm Care Instructions: Hand wash in cold water.
