Fabulous Hooded crochet patterns

Written by Crochet & Love writing team in

For a little while there, I was a little intimidated by the hooded crochet pattern. Perhaps I felt like I wasn’t cool enough to wear a hoodie.

Maybe I couldn’t wrap my mind around the simplicity of the design? I do have to admit, the patterns are very easy to follow and they sure make for an incredible piece to add to your wardrobe.

Below, you will find 20 more hooded crochet patterns, but at CrochetCre8tion, you will not only find these 9 free hoodie crochet patterns, but some paid ones as well! B

Well hooded crochet patterns of sweaters, cowls and scoodies – just to name a few – “fall” into this category.

The fact that it’s cool enough that you can bundle up comfortably and fashionably. This is one of the reasons why I love Fall; how the cool air nips at you while you take a stroll around the park.

This is where I love hoods. It’s a great accessory to have where you can put your hood on your head to ward off cooler winds. Or, you can just have it as a fashion, out of the way accessory.

Hope you love these hoodies as much as I do! Check it out!

Hooded Toddler Jacket

Hooded Toddler Jacket

Body of jacket is made in two stages. First, work begins below chest-level and proceeds downwards for skirting. Second, stitches are worked across the opposite side of the foundation chain and worked upwards for bodice, splitting at the armholes.

For the skirting, begin with a loose foundation chain, the number of stitches depending on the body measurements of the wearer.

For example, for a medium-size woman’s jacket, approximately 150 stitches may be used. With the foundation chain, single crochet and double crochet for the entire length of the backside.

For the bodice, intersect the opposite side of the foundation chain with a single crochet and proceed to work in moss stitch across the armhole with a double crochet on the second stitch of each set.

Then increase to form the “V” shape of the shoulder. Follow moss stitch for a few more rows as desired for fit. Split the remaining yarn in half, repeating the same pattern on the opposite side.

When reaching the base of the foundation chain, slip stitch to join the two sides.

Finish the jacket off with decorative edging such as lace, popcorn stitch or reverse shell stitch.

The Body is seamed at the shoulders only.

Sleeves are worked in two stages, beginning at center and worked downwards for flare. Then stitches are worked across the opposite side of the foundation chain and worked upwards for top of Sleeve.

Stitches are worked around the neckline to begin Hood.

The hood is worked in a continuous round with increases at each side seam. The hood is worked until it reaches the desired height.

At the end, seams are sewn to secure the hood in place at the shoulders and to finish the garment.

SPECIAL STITCHES

Dc2tog (Double crochet 2 together): Yo, pull up a loop in indicated st, yo and draw through 2 loops twice, yo and draw through all 3 loops on hook
Fdc (foundation double crochet): Ch 3 (counts as first fdc). Yo and pull up a loop in 3rd ch from hook, yo and pull through 1 loop creating a sl st, (this is an important step but easy to forget), yo and draw though 2 loops (2 loops rem), yo and draw through last 2 loops. This completes the 2nd fdc (the initial 3 ch counted as the first. * Yo and pull up a loop in sl st made with last fdc, yo and pull through 1 loop creating a sl st, yo and draw though 2 loops, yo and draw through last 2 loops; rep from * to desired number of fdc.

OPTIONAL SPECIAL STITCHES

CSDC (Chainless Starting Double Crochet): If working in rows, turn work. If working in rounds spin hook completely around, making a twist in the loop. Pull up a loop to the height of a normal dc. YO with the loop so that the hook is behind the loop. Insert the hook into the first st of row. Compete a normal dc (YO and draw through st (3 loops on hook). YO and draw through first two loops on hook. YO and draw through last two loops on hook). Here is a fantastic tutorial by Moogly
SDC (Standing Double Crochet): Begin with slip knot on hook, YO, insert hook in stitch, and work like a normal dc (YO, draw through first two loops, YO, draw through last two loops).

NOTES

• The ch 3 at the beg of each row will count as the first dc. This means that the next dc you make should be placed in the 2nd st, EXCEPT in the hood, where an additional dc will be placed in the first dc. This will be specified within the pattern.
• Stripe to your heart’s delight! You can do color changes any way that works best for you.
• Make color changes anyway you see fit. I prefer to fasten off with one color and to begin with a new color.
• Color changes on sleeves can be made using a SDC (see OPTIONAL SPECIAL STITCHES)
