Description
ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Marley Hood is knitted flat, back and forth on circular needles, entirely in garter stitch. The patchwork effect is created using the intarsia technique.
The construction begins with the hood, which is worked first. Once the hood is complete, the first scarf section is knitted directly from one side of the hood, gradually decreasing to form a pointed tip. The second scarf section is then worked from the opposite side of the hood in the same way, finishing with another pointed tip.
Finally, an I-cord edging is worked all around the hood scarf for a neat finish.
SIZES
