Includes instructions for ages 9-12 months and women’s (Premium pattern contains additional sizes and is available

No matter your skill level, I always suggest that you read through the pattern from beginning to end before beginning
your work just to be sure you don’t have any questions that might cause frustration in the midst of your project.
You’ll be working the hood in rounds without joining. Use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of each round.

EMBELLISHMENT
To add braided ties:
Cut 12 strands of CC yarn at 36” each.
Separate into two sets of 6 strands each.
Fold one set of strands in half and pull the looped part through a lower corner of the brim – where the ties would go.
Do not pull all the way through. (I go from the outside>in. This leaves a nicer finish.)
Thread the ends of the strands through the folded loop and pull tight.
With the strands firmly attached to the hood, braid the strands (you’ll have three sets of 4 strands each for the braiding).
When you get toward the bottom, knot the end.
Work a braid on the other side of the hood, matching the length.
To add tassels:
Cut 2 12” pieces of yarn and set aside.
Using a book that is approximately 5.5” wide, wind yarn around the book 10 (20) times.
Slip one of the reserved pieces of yarn under the wound up yarn and to the top of the tassel.
Tie off securely.
Slip the tassel off the book and place the second reserved string about 1.5” down from the top of the tassel.
Cinch tight and tie knot securely.
Cut the loops at the bottom of the tassel.
Trim ends.
Add tassel to the hood by threading the ends into separate holes at the lower edge, front corner of the hood.
Tie the ends together and tuck the remaining ends. Trim.
