Materials

Hook: 10mm (UK 000:USN–P/15) crochet hook

Pattern Notes

The hood is worked in rows of alternating double crochet and treble stitches to create the textured pattern. The short ends are stitched together to form a tube of fabric. If substituting for another yarn, be aware that some super chunky yarns are more dense than the one used for this project, so will create a much firmer fabric. Compare hook size and tension information on the ball bands to find a suitable substitute.

Pattern

With 10mm hook and A, make 57[73:77] ch.

Row 1: 1 dc in second ch from hook, 1 tr in next ch, (1 dc in next ch, 1 tr in next ch) to end, turn (56[72:76] sts).

Row 2: 1 ch (does not count as a st throughout), (1 dc in next tr, 1 tr in next dc) to end, turn.

Rep row 2 until work measures 16[20:22]in (40.5[51:56]cm). Fasten off, leaving a long tail of yarn at the end.
