Hooded Scarf

Soft and feminine, this cozy hooded scarf is easy enough for even a beginner to knit. It's beautiful in a variety of light and medium weight yarns, and almost any fiber. I've used acrylics, wools, blends and fuzzy yarns like angora and mohair with lovely results. Fine yarns produce a fluid airy fabric, heavier yarns provide warmth. Your gauge should be about 20-22 stitches to 4"/10cm.

Choose from 4 different patterns. For a stockinette scarf a beginner needs only to know the basics - how to CO, K, P, SSK, BO, and sew a seam. Experienced knitters can add a braided cable, lace or eyelet accent. Written instructions and graphs are included for all styles.

If you're interested in designing your own, I've included instructions on how to adapt your favorite stitch and yarn. Using the basic measurements, you can venture in to the creative realm of knitwear design.

This hooded scarf makes a perfect gift for someone special, even if you don't know her size. Gift tags are included to print.
